It used to be in America that flying was a big deal. If you see old pictures or video, you see men in suits, ladies in dresses, lots of hats and people ripping cigarettes. Hey, flying has ALWAYS had its drawbacks.
What you didn’t see was people bringing their own snacks, trimming their toenails, taking their shoes off, or dressed like they don’t own a mirror.
In short, it used to be considered classy to fly.
I guess those days are over. Been on a Spirit flight lately? Or as I like to call them, Break-Your-Spirit Airlines. It’s sketchy at best.
Recently a good, old-fashioned brouhaha erupted between a couple of “ladies” on a Spirit flight. Thank God for cell phone cameras. Let’s see what Outkick says:
And here we go with the latest Spirit Airlines budget airline brawl report where those $59 Greyhound of the Skies flights come back to haunt you when some loud-mouth greaseball climbs over you to fight in the aisle.
Where was this plane heading? I have no idea. It’s not even worth researching because it doesn’t matter. It could be going to Miami where the Spirit Airline brawlers like to do most of their work. It could be going to Vegas with a bunch of people looking to blow their credit card budget at the clubs. It could be going to Tampa. Fort Lauderdale. New York.

Outkick isn’t wrong here. Part of the problem is the discount carriers. While they have made it possible for more people to experience the friendly skies, it also has allowed more un-friendly people to be able to afford to fly. Maybe it sounds harsh, but some people BELONG on a bus.
In short, some people should be in a cab versus an Uber. Some people should be shopping at Wal-Mart versus Target, and some people shouldn’t be allowed on a plane. Take a bus, Brittney.
There SHOULD be a code of conduct ingrained within us all. Normal, reasonable people know that throwing hands should be a last resort for ANY situation. You don’t just put-up-dukes because someone looked at you wrong in the TJ Maxx (unless it’s Amber Heard).
Consider the fact that you are in a metal tube, 30,000 feet in the sky, traveling at unnatural speeds, and you DEFINITELY shouldn’t be throwing hands.
The fact that these are women whooping ass makes this all the more cringe worthy. What happened to the fairer sex? What happened to women being soft spoken and feminine?

It’s come to the point where I’m rooting for the scumbags of society to no longer have the financial means to fly. And if they happen to come into some money from the government, just keep flying Spirit and leave Delta alone.
Well, considering you almost have to hit the Powerball to afford Delta, probably not much threat there. I priced a flight on Delta to Florida recently. I’m sorry, but I’m not taking out a bank loan just to fly Delta and make 8 stops to get to the beach.
I’ll take my chances with the pugilists on Spirit Airlines. Hey, at least there aren’t snakes in the food!
