The 8 cent* flight

Pack your bags. Get your passport ready. Start making plans to vacation in Honduras this summer. Spirit Airlines has a special offer to fly from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to San Pedro Sula, Honduras all for the amazingly low price of 8 cents*!

Wait? There’s an asterisk near the price? That can’t be good. So what’s the catch?

“The fare prices do not include up to $23.90 in U.S. fees and airport charges plus possible international taxes and fees of up to $125 per round-trip.”

So 8 cents* is in reality about $144. Darn, there went the chance to see Guamilito and Plaza Catracha for less than the cost of a pack of chewing gum.

Damn you Spirit Airlines!
