If you were willing to play the game, Spirit was an effective way to fly cheap. I have a backpack that’s the maximum size permitted for “personal item”, never carried luggage to check in and brought my own snacks and drinks.
The leg space was atrocious but I’d get their emails to bid on exit row seats, bid the lowest amount ($5-$15) and often win.
I had enough points for a free one-way flight, but alas.
