Because that's illegal? Similar to how you're not allowed to drink your own alcohol on a plane that wasn't purchased and served by an employee on that plane; even if you purchased duty free alcohol at the airport terminal, it can't be opened onboard a plane.

There are liability and insurance issues with outside alcohol, too.

I’ll never understand people that don’t bring their own booze to booze events

It’s a Greyhound with wings. Book accordingly.

Thanks for the tip! Airline food in general is pretty bad these days but good to know there isn't even a bad meal offered. I'll make sure to stock up before I head out!

I’d recommend definitely eating before or getting some food to take on the plane. In Breeze “first class” you’ll get free soda/beer and a (large) bag of chips or candy, but there is no sort of substantive food and that is a pretty long flight. Just something to be aware of. Also, there is no wifi or entertainment, so be sure to download movies/tv ahead of time if that’s your thing.

No, you didn’t highjack my post. Thanks for sharing your plans. I hope that you have a pleasant experience, that you’ll want to do it again…and tell your friends and family!

Nice that sounds good. I don’t care about it being bougie with free drinks or fancy service or whatever. I just wanted one price for all my luggage and a seat, and that deal was still better than the other airlines with layovers so all in it just made sense. Thanks for the feedback. I feel like I highjacked your post and you’ve been most gracious!

you can say fuck here - it's fine. ;-)

Nicest seats are still basically the same as domestic first-class on other airlines. There’s quite a difference between the seat you booked and the seats in the back - no doubt! Enjoy it!

Yeeeep lol

Omg. You just reminded me.

Thanks!

I know. But it is the 3rd seat on the plane. That’s first class to me and I’ve never sat that close to the front before so let me live in my own little private mind garden! 🤣

“Well, if you like gambling, and you like going to Las Vegas, have we got a deal for you!”

I lived in those shitty 3 story apartments at Stafford and main. Frequently abused the secret parking lot behind sticky rice. Fu Jian was cheap, good, and saw me through at least 2 years of vcu lol

I appreciate the heads up, but don’t need photos of partially eaten food. Overtime it just leads to people starting to put up shit posts like this with terrible photos for karma and I’m just so over it. Sorry OP for the rant, but don’t want to see this sub turn the way of others.

I mean as VCU kids, weren't we all lol

Just so you aren’t disappointed, Breeze doesn’t have a “first class”

Very exciting! Hope you have a great and memorable trip to Vegas. Enjoy that first-class (Nicest) seat on Breeze and live like royalty!

This special offer is good for a month only because it is a way to get people to book and fly with Spirit (maybe even to try them out) - a way to fill up the flights…a great way to get a good deal. However, with Breeze competing on that route too, the competition usually keeps prices low since both airlines are competing for customers. So, the good deals could continue beyond just that one month.

Not Spirit, but booked a direct with Frontier and they last minute gave me a long layover switch-a-roo.

I’m flying to Vegas non stop and first class in a few weeks for around $600 on Breeze. I’m so excited. I’ve never flown first class. I’ve also never flown non stop to Vegas.

This has nothing to do with Spirit Airlines.

Breeze Airways would be the alternative for nonstop flights to LAS from RIC, so if you don't prefer Spirit, there is always Breeze; however, Breeze is not flying daily...yet, so you lose some flexibility to fly whenever you want.

It’s fine honestly. I wouldn’t do it for anything more than like 4 hours but to avoid a layover it’s worth it.
