Spirit Airlines is the largest low-cost airline in all of the United States, Latin America and Caribbean. The all-Airbus fleet (which is incidentally the youngest in the Americas) flies more than 150 flights daily to over 40 destinations. The company is based in Miramar, Florida, and always thinks of new and innovative ways to cater to its customers.

Regarding this offer, there are additional value-added benefits for the Free Spirit MasterCard holders – for instance, customers who sign up for the Free Spirit MasterCard get 15,000 bonus miles after their first purchase (this is enough for up to three free round-trip award tickets). They will also get priority boarding and domestic priority check-in, as well as complimentary month-to-month $9 Fare Club membership with monthly card usage. Also, customers can get the annual fee waived for the first year, and also get at least 10,000 additional miles for balance transfer made in the first 60 days after opening the account. What’s more, the Free Spirit miles don’t expire with monthly card usage, and customers can earn 3 miles for every 1 dollar spent on Spirit, and 1 mile for every 1 dollar spent anywhere else.
