Cushing, Oklahoma, dubs itself the pipeline crossroads of the world. The tagline is emblazoned on a giant roadside sign fashioned out of pipes on the corner of Main Street and South Stiles Road. It has a valve and everything.
In multiple ways, we are seeing the end of the oil age.
“ a lowcost Budget airline for low income people” shutting down
A rich persons problem?
Bruh, the rich didn’t fly spirit… and even if they did they still have options… like yeah some rich asshole lost their company but this hits low income travelers much harder than the rich.
It’s also beside the point. They said oil prices “barely changed” but whatever their definition of “barely” is, they changed enough to bankrupt a big company.
Cause I’ve been poor my whole life until the last few years. Mom worked three jobs so we could eat Mac and cheese every night growing up. Been homeless multiple times even…
You severely underestimate the craftyness, resourcefulness, and tenacity of the poor.
I’m not talking about flying for a luxury vacation, shit, I’m not even talking about making a wedding, funeral, or birth, ya know big things. I’m talking about have to’s… like mom in the hospital 8 states away. Grandma being foreclosed on and can’t afford assisted living and somebody has to be there,
lol I don’t fly, but for someone in my shoes whose brother lives across the country, my options are either a full 1,200 mile / 18+hr drive or $180-300 on a 5hr flight to and from while also saving wear on my car, or to just not see my brother.
I prefer the third option as my brother is trash, but be for real. The airline that went down made it easier for everyday people that didnt have booku money to fly. Celebrating this as a hit to the rich is civilly tone deaf and naive
The price of it has barely changed here
Not sure where you live but it shut down an entire low-cost budget airline for low-income people in the USA
UK, tbh an airline shutting down sounds like rich people problems so I don’t overly care.

You are fucking flying, you have enough money that I don’t care.
Spirit was like $20 to fly on I’m not joking. Some flights were so cheap I’ve had more expensive meals at subway
