As a Michigan staff who has begun to qualify for Worlds regularly, the one approach we have now discovered to make the journey something approaching economically viable is by way of Spirit Airlines. We buy partially refundable tickets for the entire staff after our first district occasion (relying on efficiency) after which hope for the most effective on the 2nd district occasion and DCMP. This yr, we did the identical.
We have since certified for Worlds, however there’s a looming headline attributable to elevated jet gasoline costs following Spirit’s double chapter: Spirit Airlines could liquidate as early as this week, sources say
Right now, we hope that the airline holds out and we’re capable of make it down there and again. Otherwise, we’ll be rapidly pivoting to driving (which is a nightmare in its personal proper) or discovering another resolution.
This is including a great deal of uncertainty to an already irritating journey. Anybody in the identical boat?
