Card Offers: Spirit Airlines is not that airline to offer a credit card, but what do you know! This credit card has not much to offer, but can come in real handy for frequent Spirit Travellers. For this card, you do require a good credit, but you also need to pay up your annual fee, oh- wait- its waived for the first year. Lets have a look at what there is in this card.
Earning Points: The offer for this card is that after spending $500 with your card, you will receive 15,000 points. Also, you will receive 2 points extra on Spirit Airlines, as well as 2 points per $ on all other purchases! This is one of the few airlines that offers 2 points per $ spent on other purchases. This can easily help rack up points, leading you to roundtrip flights much quicker. And of course, flying can earn you points. Also, you can get 5,000 anniversary points after spending $10,000 in a year and paying off the annual fee.
Redeeming Points: Redeeming Points is not that high with options. You can either redeem points for flights, or magazines. Roundtrip flights actually start at 25,000 points for members, but for cardholders its only 5,000 points. Thats a big difference! So, the card you are getting is actually worth 3 off peak roundtrip flights. And of course, magazines are the same and usual, really boring! But surprisingly, these are tier qualifying points, but the tier levels for Spirit Airlines just get you extra points, nothing else.

Airline Offers: There's not much that Spirit Airlines has to offer like a free checked bag or even carry on, or maybe even a free drink. Of course as long as you use your card at least once every month, your miles are sure not to expire, and there are no blackout dates for award travel. Adding on to that, you can enjoy Preferred Boarding as well as Preferred Check In, but those are only at select airports. Thats basically it.
Verdict: Spirit Airlines is not much of a traveled airline, but can be good for business travelers that do really not mind about luxury, or even cheap travel, because, honestly, Spirit Airlines is not at all close to my criteria respectively but I cannot call their prices rubbish, because, lets face it, the fares are pretty darn low. But its not like this card is not making any difference and making up for their bad reviews because their service has not changed. Something I would reccomend is maybe vouchers for 1 free inflight drink or maybe even an annual complimentary "Big Front Seat" voucher. There's not much to talk about this card, and would not reccomend it.
