Spirit Airlines is about to roll out tickets that include perks like free snacks and no fee for checking a bag. It's quite a reversal for the airline known for low base fares but lots of fees. Spirit said Tuesday it will offer several new packages that bundle popular options like priority check-in and a roomier seat.
Spirit Airlines is moving farther away from its history as a fee-happy budget airline and will start selling tickets that include some of its most popular extras in a single bundle.
CEO Ted Christie said the changes are “taking low-fare travel to new heights,” but they also indicate the deep trouble with Spirit’s longtime business model.
