  • I can tell you about the last time I flew Spirit airlines. I was on vacation in a place with really nice weather. Back home also had really nice weather, and it was basically clear skies all the way in between.

    However, there was a hurricane in Florida.

    Spirit canceled my return flight about 12 hours in advance, and booked me on a flight for the next day. Never mind that my hotel reservation ended in a few hours, so I didn’t have a place to stay or a rental car planned for the extra day. They said they didn’t have to offer me anything because it was “weather related”, on account of the hurricane that was literally more than a thousand miles away from either my departure or arrival airports.

    Would a different airline have handled it differently? I don’t know. I’ve had other airlines do a better job rerouting me after a cancellation, but the conditions were different. Regardless, I’ll not be giving Spirit any more of my money.


  • “Who’s to blame?” Texas governor Greg Abbott repeated back to the reporter. “That’s the word choice of losers. Every football team makes mistakes,” he continued […] “The losing teams are the ones that try to point out who’s to blame. The championship teams are the ones who say, ‘Don’ t worry about it, ma’am, we’ve got this.”

    Have you, Greggy? Have you “got this”? Because there are a lot of missing and dead people who would probably disagree if they could. Do you know why “losers” ask questions about what went wrong? It’s because they’re not happy with the outcome, and they would like to do better. Are you happy with the outcome, Greg?
