Special ACARS Drama Announcement:

We just wanted to take a moment, in light of recent news regarding Spirit Airlines, to pass on our best wishes to all 17,000 employees of the airline who are facing uncertainty this morning. That's a horrible thing for anyone to deal with and we hope you all find new opportunities soon.

Spirit provided plenty of ACARS Drama over the last couple of years, so, as a tribute, we decided to dive into the Archives and pick out our top 10 favorite Sprit Airlines ACARS Messages.

    @acarsdrama number six being a metaphor for the airline itself
    @acarsdrama I didn't read the original toot. Thought that was one really bad flight.
    @acarsdrama #chunderroad
    Man the in-flight entertainment on that airline was *lit*

    @acarsdrama

    "PAX IS MASTER BAITENG UNDER HIS JACKET."

    @acarsdrama

    If it were me, I'd put in an application to fly cargo.

    @acarsdrama

    I certainly hope #4 was a drop off and not a pickup.

    @acarsdrama In the academic community, we have "Reviewer 2". I suspect that in the passenger aviation community, they have "Seat 24B".
    @acarsdrama dang, I hadn’t heard they were going out of business.

    @3janeTA @acarsdrama

    trump just killed them with fuel prices and a refusal to help them out.

    @acarsdrama
