If you have never flown out of AC Airport, you are in for a real treat. Parking was always basically at the front door - never more than a minute or 2 walk from the furthest spot in the parking lot. YES! No shuttles! I hear they now have a parking garage and am hoping it is still a quick walk to the main building. I have not flown Spirit for over a year but know that for my trip in Dec I had to pay in advance for luggage. For carry-ons DH always takes the laptop and I take a back pack with a change of clothes (just in case) and throw my purse in there too. I keep a few $$ and ID in my pocket. I just like keeping it to the minimum when possible. We also paid in advance for seats because we do want to sit next to one another on the flight and if we wait and let Spirit assign our seats there is always the possibility we will be sitting at opposite ends of the plane. This is not a bad thing - just not what we wanted to do for this vacation. Due to the current state of affairs Spirit has already changed the times of both flights - down and back - twice. We are ok with the times right now, but I am hoping they don't make anymore changes. By and large, our experience with Spirit has always been good - courteous, friendly flight attendants.
