What’s going on with Spirit Airlines… and why is the U.S. government thinking about stepping in? I actually know a little bit about this topic because I fly so much.
In this video, I break down how airlines actually make money, and why the real business isn’t always flying passengers. From loyalty programs to credit card deals, the big airlines have built financial engines that Spirit never quite pulled off.
So what happens when an airline is “just an airline”… and the market turns against it?
And more importantly...should taxpayers be on the hook to save it?
