Just trying to get some feedback on Spirit Airlines. We will be flying from Detroit to Orlando in February and they are the cheapest.

I have a friend who has been flying them a lot (out of Ft. Lauderdale) and he has nothing but good things to say about them...

Some discount airlines use older equipment and squeeze more seats into an aircraft, so it's a question of $$ vs. comfort.
