With taxes and fees the true cost of the ticket will run around $30-40 round-trip. But its still a bargain. People want to fly cheaply and safely. Now they have another way to stretch their business expense trips and make their vacation dollars go further.

Oh, they're far more creative than that. Taxes and fees add another $10 to your flight from any of their service airports to Cincinnati, OH. Oh, you mean you want to go back? Your ticked for the return flight is $100, plus tax and fees. So your round trip ticket to Cincinnati is $110, plus tax and fees.

Didn't bother going much further to read about the extras I could buy.

You are correct about the $30-$40. I recently booked a ticket on Spirit Airlines from Myrtle Beach to Boston. The cost round trip is $38.80 - $18.00 for the ticket and $20.80 in taxes. Spirit has a $9 club and on the specials you have to fly on certain days and on certain flights. It makes it cheap for me to go up to CT to see my son and daughter-in-law. Got a deal on a rental car so the whole trip is only $110....can't beat that!
