Also, the fact that two separate reviewers listed as a Pro that ``I didn't die'' can't be good.

Yes. That is definitely a bad sign. I was on Spirit Air in February and had similar feelings. The crew simply didn't give a shit about anything. We were landing with tray tables down, seatbacks back, and flight attendants still roaming the aisles. The plane was pretty old and all of their equipment was cast-offs from other airlines (carts had Continental badging on them). I would probably fly them again though. The fare was very cheap and everyone working for them was extremely nice.

It seems Virgin Atlantic has a web fare on orbitz for $617 round trip. Seems like a better deal since I will not be fearing my life or being surrounded by human waste.
