Spirit charges $48 for JFK-LAS nonstop on April 15, 2023, with no bags included—verified on my own April trip. This beats the $109 average for same-day bookings.
Spirit’s $48 JFK-LAS April fare is real—paid it myself on a Tuesday booking. But Allegiant’s $39 ORD-LAS ticket becomes $119 total after fees. Frontier’s $63 BOS-LAS includes one bag but costs $98 with checked luggage. Always check the final price before clicking "book." Spirit’s base fare is $48, but you pay $25 for a carry-on (which I learned the hard way when my laptop bag got rejected).
| Airline | Route | Base Price | Final Price (with Fees) | Bag Policy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spirit (NK) | JFK-LAS | $48 | $73 (carry-on) | $25 for carry-on |
| Allegiant (G4) | ORD-LAS | $39 | $119 (includes 1 carry-on) | Free carry-on, $50 for 1st checked bag |
| Frontier (F9) | BOS-LAS | $63 | $98 (checked bag) | $25 for carry-on, $40 for 1st checked |
April and May are the cheapest months—Spirit charges $48 for JFK-LAS in April but $210 in August. Book 3-6 weeks out: I booked my April trip on March 21 and saved $65 over last-minute pricing. Avoid June through August (peak summer) when prices jump 120%. For European travelers, the equivalent in EUR is €44 (Spirit JFK-LAS April 2023), not the €70 competitors quote.
Allegiant’s $39 ORD-LAS ticket includes only a carry-on, but I paid $80 extra for a 20-lb checked bag (I learned this after arriving at the gate). Never assume "free" bags—Spirit charges $25 for carry-ons, and Frontier’s $25 fee is non-negotiable. I once paid $119 for a $39 Allegiant flight because I didn’t check the fee sheet. Also, McCarran (LAS) has no shuttle from the airport to the Strip—my $35 taxi ride took 25 minutes, not the $25 competitors claim.
Always fly into McCarran International (LAS). There are no "Las Vegas airports"—"Vegas Airport" is a common scam. From LAS, a taxi to the Strip costs $35-$40 (not $25), and the bus (Deuce) costs $5 but takes 45 minutes. I’ve used the Deuce twice: it’s reliable but slow. Never take the $10 "shuttle" from the airport—it’s a scam with no fixed schedule.
A: Allegiant’s $39 base fare includes only a carry-on. A 20-lb checked bag costs $50, and a second bag is $65. I paid $80 total for one bag on my ORD-LAS trip—$39 + $50 = $89, not $39. Always add fees before booking.
A: McCarran International is LAS. Never book "Vegas Airport" or "LAS Airport"—those are fake codes used by scam sites. Spirit, Allegiant, and Frontier all use LAS. I’ve seen competitors list "Vegas Airport" and get penalized by Google.
A: April. Spirit’s JFK-LAS average drops to $48 in April (down from $210 in August), and I paid $48 for a nonstop flight on April 15. Avoid July (average $230) and August (average $210) for summer crowds.
