A few months ago, Spirit Airlines (the airline everybody loves to hate) gave away 25,000 mile vouchers in Houston to celebrate the launch of some new routes. My family and I loaded up to get the certificates (I even went to more than one location). We waited in the quick moving lines, and indeed we all received our 25,000 mile vouchers. You can read all about that process here. My… Read the Rest.

A few months ago I stood in line with hundreds of other would-be-travelers to get certificates for 20,000 free Spirit miles in celebration of their new Houston routes. Including my parents, my family scored 100,000 free miles that day just for waiting in a pretty short line. It was great! Spirit is a very no-frills airline, but I didn’t care. Free travel is free travel, and I was happy to… Read the Rest.

No hula hoops to twist around your neck while standing on your head. All you had to do was show up, wait in a brief line, and then head on your merry way with a voucher for 20,000 miles.

Okay, so they are Spirit miles and everyone seems to love to hate Spirit. (Except Jared who seems to have survived his flight just fine). I don’t care if they are Fisher Price Airline miles, I will line up almost anywhere within driving distance for 20,000 free miles. To celebrate their new service in Houston, Spirit Airlines is giving away 60 million airline miles this week in Houston! Here are… Read the Rest.

I was chatting with my parents just then, and they told me about a $70 roundtrip deal from Houston to Vegas available this fall. Yes, that is $70 roundtrip! It is available on Spirit Airlines likely to celebrate announcing the new IAH-LAS route. So far I haven’t noticed any other airlines matching, but there are more cities available than just Houston at pretty good rates. I saw Denver for $88,… Read the Rest.
