DALLAS (AP) — If you get on a Spirit Airlines flight, there’s a 50-50 chance that your flight will be late.
Spirit, a low-fare carrier with a clientele of mostly leisure travelers, had by far the worst on-time performance in June among 14 airlines tracked in a government report. Only 49.9 percent of its flights arrived within 15 minutes of schedule, which is the government’s definition of being on time.
United Airlines had the second-worst rating, at 66.3 percent on time.
