Spirit's Post-Strike Sale

The Spirit Airlines strike  has come to an end now that the airline's pilot's, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), and management have reached a tentative agreement. The airline is set to resume operations tomorrow after the pilots began striking this past Saturday.

Now Spirit's challenge is to get people flying again, and in normal fashion the airline has launched a promotion with (cue your rim shot sound effects) "strikingly" low fares! The carrier is offering $50 off on some fares booked by 11:59 PM tomorrow, and members of the airline's FREE SPIRIT frequent flier program can register to earn 5,000 free bonus miles until the end of the month.

I can't say this is really new for Spirit - the airline is well-known for its cheeky promotions, and it does seem to work for them. I always find them amusing, at least.
