Can I buy a Spirit Airlines ticket at a Spirit airport counter for any Spirit cities?
Hello board,
New member here. Surely posting in the wrong place. Moderator, please move post if necessary.
I was curious if it's possible to purchase Spirit tickets at one airport, for a flight out of another? Example, drive to ACY and purchase round trip ticket to fly out of LaGuardia or PHL.
Any thoughts?
TIA

Because believe it or not, Spirit charges an internet fee that makes buying the ticket at the airport cheaper.

Thanks guys...
Correct, it's cheaper face-to-face vs online. Also, my companion is in a different state and doesn't have access to go to airport in advance to buy tickets for later date.
Since I'm close to a different airport, I'm hoping they would sell round trip out of different airport.

Any Spirit agent can sell you a ticket to and from any airport they use.
Just be aware that most airports do not have a Spirit agent all day. If there are no flights after midnight and the next day's first flight is at 6 a.m., you can be reasonably sure there will be no ticket agent between 11:30 p.m. and 4:30 a.m.

In Europe airlines actually charge a non-online booking fee most of the time (for buying at the airport or by phone call).
The only airline that charges a booking fee that I know of is KLM, who charge 10 euros for online booking, but I think they will charge even more if you buy at the airport or through the phone. So baasically all tickets are just 10 euros more expensive than listed (which I think should be illegal really but hey that's off topic). You used to get around it by booking through air france but that's no longer possible. I do think there are ways around it but then youll have to pay some online travel agent booking fee I think. All in all 10 euros isnt that much.

(in fact if you buy at the airport for those airlines, you will be charged extra)
