We'll be flying out a few weeks later. Right now spirit has some flights at 54 each way. 126RT. Not for my dates though.

Check www.sidestep.com - they look at all the airlines simultaneously and come up with the cheapest rates.

I havn't travelled on an airplane since WDW trip in November 2004.....
We paid $179 per person r/t non-stop on Spirit, now the best rate on Spirit is over $300 ! YIKES !
Have airline rates increased that much ??

We just booked a $54 each way flight through Spirit for May. The cheaper flights through Spirit are Monday through Friday. The weekend flight was $130 each way. Try changing your dates up and see what happens.

The hidden secret seems to be checking the rates regularly, and be flexible about your flying times. Case in point...for our May trip, I was looking at 300 per person on NWA....I kept looking, and then found if I switched our flights to Spirit on Friday afternoon instead of Friday night, it dropped to $200. Then, if I moved our return to Monday morning, it dropped again to $126.

November is so far off, you might be better off looking around for deals. When I was checking Spring flights last fall, the prices were astronomical. They came down in December....
