I am debating between Airtran and Spirit.
We flew spirit and the flight was great, to florida was early and we landed 45minutes sooner than expected.
The Flight back was late 15 minutes but actually landed on time.
Airtran we have not flown in 2 years, but the exp was fine too.
Here are the main differences
Airtran card: 32 credits when you spend 2k in 3 months. Kind of hard for me to do as i normally pay cash.
32 credits for 2 round trip flights, can be used any time except a few black out dates
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Spirit card: 15k miles when we spend $5, have to use the card every month to keep rewards
15K miles = 3 round trip flights during off peak times (Jan - june 1, september)
Which is fine since we are planning on going back next may
Baggage is cheaper by $10 on airtran.
Have to book 180 days in advance to have 0 fees. which is also fine since i booked the trip we just came back from in august.
i am leaning toward spirit, but airtran is not far behind
