Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights for travel to popular summer destinations like Cancun or Las Vegas during early January to late February, as this period often sees lower availability and prices for summer travel dates.

Sweet Spot

You can fly from Los Angeles to New York City for just 25,000 Spirit miles one way, while the typical cash price for this route is around $150.

Routing Trick

You can use 500,000 Spirit Airlines miles to book a round-trip from Los Angeles (LAX) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL) with a stopover in Atlanta (ATL) for just 15,000 miles instead of the typical 20,000 miles for a direct flight, saving 5,000 miles.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Spirit Airlines on routes to Las Vegas, as they frequently impose a $50 carry-on baggage fee and up to $100 for checked bags, significantly increasing your travel costs.
