Spirit Airlines announced Tuesday new passenger benefits that add more value and offer greater flexibility.
Travelers can now benefit from more flexible policies and reduced fees. In addition to Spirit’s recently launched policy of eliminating change or cancellation fees, passengers can now enjoy:
- Increased checked bag weight allowance to 50 pounds
- Extended Future Travel Vouchers expiration to 12 months (for vouchers issued on or after June 3, 2024)
“Spirit has changed the game before and we’re doing it again with this first round of initiatives that will lead the way to a new era of low-fare, high-value flying,” said Matt Klein, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer of Spirit Airlines.

No Change or Cancel Fees
Effective May 17, 2024, there is no fee to change or cancel a reservation on any Spirit flight. Travelers will only have to pay the difference in fare or receive a credit if the new trip is less expensive.
Improved passenger experience
These initiatives build on Spirit’s longstanding commitment to invest in the Guest, improving every aspect of the Guest journey. This includes recent cabin enhancements featuring wider seats with more cushion and fast onboard Wi-Fi.
In addition, Spirit was recently recognized in WalletHub’s ‘Best Airlines’ (2024) report, earning a top ranking for safety and affordability, and has been recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) with the Aviation Maintenance Technician Diamond Award of Excellence for the sixth consecutive year.
