Similar flight duration, opposite customer care policies.
The sapporo is blocking the soba noodle dish, which was rrrreal good with the provided soba noodle sauce.
Spirit made all passengers empty their water bottles before getting on the plane and if you wanted water during the 7 hour flight you were required to purchase it from them.
First airline I’ve ever used that prohibited water. Big thumbs down. Seems insane, tbh.
Did the two flights cost the same?
Everyone seems to know that Spirit is shit customer service but it’s super cheap so people put up with it.
I didn’t even know Spirit had 10-hour flights. That’s horrifying.
Indeed Spirit is well known as one of the worst, bargain-basement airlines. It’s the one that comes to mind as “the worst airline in the world.”
Jet Blue is the other one. I would never fly either unless I was absolutely forced to. I’d probably still try to take a train if it took a week.
God back in the aughts Jet Blue was the SHIT. Decent prices, tons of freebies, we always took JB if it was available. Now, yea id rather take southwest or frontier
Reminds me a bit of Virgin a decade ago. Reasonably priced and quite a remarkably nice experience!
Of course it doesn’t even exist any more. Ha
Add Iberian to the list. Not only did they lose my luggage, they also didn’t give anyone water for 7 hours on the flight.
Almost identical actually, 454 for the ANA flight and 492 for the Spirit.
ANA is only one leg of this flight, and i flew a longer distance on spirit.
But for those two legs I’m comparing, and the distance flown for each relative to the entire flight, it’s almost the exact same price.
