BRADENTON, Fla. â The sun had not yet set last Friday on a field ringed by palm trees when, on the first play from scrimmage, Shea Patterson rolled to his left and threw a 69-yard touchdown pass for his high school, IMG Academy, a private, for-profit sports boarding school.
Spirit is one of two domestic carriers that charge for carry-on bags. The other is Allegiant Air, which instituted a fee last month. On that carrier, a carry-on costs as much as $35.
Spirit allows you to bring a small personal item on board for free, but it must fit under the seat. You will have to pay for the roller bags you are used to bringing on board free on other airlines. The fee for a carry-on bag is $35 during spirit.com booking, $40 before online check-in, $45 during online check-in, $55 at the airport reservations desk or kiosk and $100 at the gate.
