Actually just announced yesterday, but spirit airlines will start service in MSP (Minneapolis) on May 31.
Which is good thing, MSP is what you call a fortress hub for Northwest Airline now Delta out of 100 gates in the main terminal they used to have 95 of them so MSP had some of the highest airfare in the nation.
Spirit is fee happy I know, but do a carry on and you avoid 80% of the BS fees and pay the $25 to upgrade to the big seat aka (first class is a stretch) and you avoid the rest.
I have flown from Chicago to DR one way for $127 total on spirit with 1 stop in FLL their hub.
I know some of you were planning to hit MSP/Dakotas and winnepeg which is a few hours away so just an FYI for you dudes that like the snow bunnies.
