Flight was delayed for several hours after boarding plane. Seems like maybe they could’ve thrown in a drink or something. On the way there my flight was delayed over two hours… And again over two hours delayed on the return flight. Haven’t flown spirit in a while. Makes me rethink if you have to be somewhere on time, it may not be the right airline
