Here s a local news report out of Tampa about a man who had to cancel his Spirit Airlines ticket because his esophageal cancer took a turn from the worse and doctors told him he had a short time to live and shouldn t fly anywhere. Spirit refused to refund the man s $197 ticket, because, as a spokesperson put it, Spirit will not make customers who follow the rules pay for those who don t.
As we all know, Having your cancer take a fatal turn for the worse = NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES. Also, the guy was flying to Jersey to visit his daughter while she undergoes surgery. Double-also, he s a Marine veteran. Really just a hat trick of excellent-PR-judgment by Spirit:
Way to go, Spirit! Way to stick to your not-narrow-minded-guns and not give in to this dying veteran s cancer SCHEME! On behalf of the rest of your paying customers, I can assure you that none of us want to absorb the crippling cost of one airline ticket EVERY SINGLE TIME a person has to cancel a flight to visit their daughter because their cancer gets worse after they booked their ticket and they will be dying soon and medically cannot fly now. What is this, a CHARITY? If you have a problem with it, consumers, good luck finding a competing airline in existence!
