Spirit is a step above Southwest, but a step below the major carriers
Do always remember that they charge for BOTH checked bag and carry-on
Tip:
I pre-paid online once for my carry-on backpack
When I got to the airport to check in, I noticed my backpack was able to fit in the bag size-check thingy and did not require the purchase so I wasted the $ (x2, round trip I believe)
Not sure if its still the same limits today, but do check your bag dimensions vs/ their limits before pre-paying carry-on (which is cheaper than paying at check in)
Also if you plan to use Spirit twice or more a year, their $9 club might be worth buying
