10:09 Hey brother, enjoyed your video. My guess is that the delay in STL, was due to a mechanical issue with the aircraft. I used to handle NK in EWR, when I worked for AC in the early days of NK's operations. Back then, they were flying 30 year old DC-9's that would break down almost on a daily basis, and would create absolute havoc for our operation, as we only had 2 gates. Very often we would have to have the Spirit aircraft removed from the gate, if it was on a mechanical delay, to accommodate our aircraft, as we operated more flights at the time. They had a policy where they would never cancel a flight, so 5 hour delays were common back then. Don't know if they have the same police today , but they've come a long way since then with the Airbuses.

I remember flying on my one and only spirit flight in 2011 with the barking plane. I remember imagining that they were like turning the ignition key and trying to get the engine to turn over.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣We made it… but never again!!!! Once on Spirit was enough🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Exact same thing happened to me lol. I was flying DEN-BZN at a window seat on a UA B738 and was recording a trip report on it, but I ended up falling asleep and waking up as soon as we touched down. Luckily I also did the opposite route.

I flew on a Spirit A319 from IND to MCO last February. It was my first and only time flying Spirit, and it was my very first time flying on an Airbus (I had only flown on some Boeing 737s and ERJ 145s before that trip). I had no idea they were becoming rare, which is a shame because it’s a very nice plane.

My very first flight on Spirit was an A319 back in 2013 when they had the old gray livery on it. Kind of sad to see them go, however every flight I’ve been on since then has always been an A321.

Not sure if anyone else has commented about this but..... you first mentioned how clean the plane was inside but I'm wondering what's up with those blood spatter stains on the seat-back in front of you 😂😂 Also never knew about the "barking" A319.... sounds like I'm laying down getting an MRI 😂😂

Well done video and for NK they should have gotten A319neo to replace their aging A319-131s/A319-132s. Cons of flying Spirit airlines the cramped seat something that's also seen with the Legacy carriers B737s. In east Asia NK A319 seat leg room is seen with LCCs and some legacy carriers notably PR with Hong Kongers Taiwanese and Singaporeans usually ranking it last.

I will ONLY fly US based ULCC if nonstop. And TBH I really gave up. AA, Delta, primarily United if necessary even if it is booked basic economy. The US airlines I allow myself to fly have diminished substantially. Thanks for sharing.

Remember seeing the pixel ones in STT!

Wow, that’s really cool that Spirit still has the old logo on the interior. I remember flying the A319 in grayscale back in like 2013. Great report of this now rare aircraft!
