  1. Ash

    Has anyone used this before? I’m wondering if there are any hidden fees or charges

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Hey Ash! I do see this in the fine print of the offer if helpful – “*Does not include taxes and fees from $5.60 one-way.”

    • Rebecca

      My husband did it. He had to pay taxes on the free flight.

  2. Daisy

    Bummer! I liked their open seating, especially the boarding priority for families – I wonder if they’ll still offer that.

    • LeAnne

      Daisy, they were still pre-boarding families, Military and Disabled/challenged a couple of months ago when I flew.

    • Amber (Hip Sidekick)

      Hey Daisy! With searching around a bit it does look like they’ll offer some boarding priority for families, depending on certain variables. You can always reach out to their customer service to double check how that might work for your family. (1-800-435-9792) Hope this helps! 🤗❤️
