Spirit Airlines, known for its ultra-low-cost fares and bold advertising, announced it has gone out of business after 34 years. The airline has canceled all flights and stopped customer service, marking an immediate wind-down of operations. This closure ends the presence of a major low-cost carrier that once operated hundreds of daily flights and employed around 17,000 people. The airline expressed pride in its impact on the industry but did not specify reasons for the shutdown or future plans.
