In multiple ways, we are seeing the end of the oil age.

Change is coming.

UK, tbh an airline shutting down sounds like rich people problems so I don't overly care.

    “ a lowcost Budget airline for low income people” shutting down

    A rich persons problem?

    Bruh, the rich didn’t fly spirit.. and even if they did they still have options.. like yeah some rich asshole lost their company but this hits low income travelers much harder than the rich.

    Are you poor?

    Cause I’ve been poor my whole life until the last few years. Mom worked three jobs so we could eat Mac and cheese every night growing up. Been homeless multiple times even… You severely underestimate the craftyness, resourcefulness, and tenacity of the poor.

    I’m not talking about flying for a luxury vacation, shit, I’m not even talking about making a wedding, funeral, or birth, ya know big things. I’m talking about have to’s.. like mom in the hospital 8 states away. Grandma being foreclosed on and can’t afford assisted living and somebody has to be there,

    lol I don’t fly, but for someone in my shoes whose brother lives across the country, my options are either a full 1,200 mile / 18+hr drive or $180-300 on a 5hr flight to and from while also saving wear on my car, or to just not see my brother.

    I prefer the third option as my brother is trash, but be for real. The airline that went down made it easier for everyday people that didnt have booku money to fly. Celebrating this as a hit to the rich is civilly tone deaf and naive
