Spirit: Now the Official Airline of Gamblers
Spirit Airlines just announced that it will launch daily non-stop service between Atlantic City and Las Vegas on May 3. Introductory fares are $79 each way, but you can expect to pay more like $230-$280 round trip, once you factor in taxes and the fact that you may not be able to skip off only on those off-peak days. We pulled up a fare of $279.30 for a May 10-13 sample trip. Not that bad.
We'll give them credit for the smart timing: flights leave their respective cities in the evening, so you'll have more than enough time to drag yourself out of bed. Spirit's current front page ridiculous flash animation doesn't revolve around the new route (right now it's some sort of samurai thing), but rest assured that the Atlantic City/Vegas deal will make it into the funnies soon enough.
