June 12, 2010 | Posted in: Airline News,News

spirit airlines strike flights canceled passenger options

The pilots who fly the planes for Spirit Airlines have gone on strike, and the carrier has canceled all flights for June 12 and June 13. It is not clear yet if more cancelations are coming.

Initially, when the airline strike was looming, a Spirit spokeswoman indicated to us that the low cost carrier would keep flying, but at the moment, that’s not the case.  

If you were scheduled to fly today, you have a 3 options:

  • 1. You can receive a credit for the full amount of your flight (valid for a year) plus a $100 “future flight credit”

2. You can receive a full refund by calling 1-800-772-7117

3. If you made your reservations before May 11 and purchased the airline’s insurance, call Travel Guard at 1-866-877-3191

The above information is on the Spirit Airline website, and it only refers to today’s flights; however, in an interview with the Wall St. Journal today, Spirit CEO Ben Baldanza indicated “his goal is to get the airline flying again as soon as possible, but he said he couldn’t say at this point what will happen.”

Keep checking back with Spirit Airlines.
