<br /><br />I don't see how Spirit able to sustain such cheap fares. From MCI to MCO if you catch it with right special is $25 each way including tax. If you can fit your clothes in a backpack no luggage fees either. If you want to be a big spender you can get "Big Front Seat" for extra $35 each way. Same first class seat that in legacy carriers. just no free drink service.<br />
