My questions is if flight is direct, does it still get cancelled often??
Have the direct flight option with Spirit but never took a chance due to the bad reviews.
Like others have mentioned, have always used Copa and never had any issues other than all their flights are connected through Panama city instead of direct to Colombian cities.

Back in Oct Spirit cancelled my flight from Ft. Laud to Med but at least put me on a Copa flight which no doubt is a much nicer flight. Great meal served for free where as Spirit charges $5. 00 for a bottled water! I don't however like that Copa stops in Bogota first. Spirit is direct to Med from Lauderdale, but Spirit does suck except for the rates. I went back on there site last night and the last week of Feb. $312.00 rnd trip. The next week is tripled that fair!!

I am glad Spirit stranded me because that caused me to stop flying with them. Copa is so much better. I usually get upgraded to business class. Probably too many people are qualifying for their Silver status because starting next year, they will award one-half segment for each segment flown with an Economy Promo ticket. I have already qualified for Silver status for next year, so I'll deal with the changes next year.

The people booking way in advance might get their seat cheap, or they might pay more (when the airline believes that those people MUST fly on those days. Usually because they are limited in their vacation days.).
Generally, there is a bell shaped curve. First 5-10% of seats sold are cheap, in order to create the feeling of scarcity, and get the next 10-15% of seats to sell. The prices generally go up until half the seats are sold, plateau after they hit their break even point, then come down until 75% of the seats are sold. Then, in the last two weeks, the price goes up, taking advantage of those passengers that HAVE to go, but just got around to buying their ticket. However, in the last 72 hours, if the last few seats have not sold, they will lower the price in order to tempt the last minute traveler.

I've been flying Spirit to Med since 2006. Fares always ranged from $400-$550.00.
I was just there 2 weeks ago and paid under $400 bucks booking a Month in advance.
I just searched flights in March 2020 and the prices are astronomical nearly $900.00 and up!! WTF!
