Airline Report: Spirit and Hertz So Happy Together

October 18, 2006 at 9:18 AM | 0 Comments

Spirit Airlines, home of the lav-friendly flight attendants, has teamed up with Hertz to offer frequent flyer miles as a reward for Hertz rentals. Members of Spirit's Free Spirit program can earn up to 1,500 miles and $20 in savings on Hertz reservations made through the end of 2006. Regardless of whether or not you "just had a fight with your partner" the morning of your rental.

Spirit is also up to more bizarre promotional antics again, although this time not quite as alienating: book today or tomorrow for fares "as low as $8," courtesy of an animated number 8 named Ocho De La Hoya. In this case, the only people really turned off by this are probably Oscar De La Hoya's array of babymamas.
