Frontier & Spirit Airlines merging...

[dfrecore]

I'm definitely frugal (ie cheap), you can ask my family. BUT, you get nickel and dimed to death on Spirit/Frontier. That initial cost of your flight is just the beginning - that's the price for walking onto the plane. You want a seat (you HAVE to have one), that's an additional fee. You want a row or aisle seat, extra fee. You want to sit next to your family, fee. You want to bring a suitcase, fee. By the time you've added just a couple of things, you're paying the same price as the other airlines. It's ridiculous.

I prefer to just know the price up front.
