Airline Upgrade

I have made several flights on Spirit Air, that I booked through Travelocity. Does Spirit Air have a frequent flyer program that I could sign up for, or is there some way I can sign up through Travelocity?
Thanks.

Dear Janice,
Currently Spirit Airline does not offer a formal frequent flier program. However, I understand that they plan to initiate a program some time next year. In the meantime, you can use your loyalty to receive upgrades to their Spirit Plus Class. This is an upgraded class of service offering 2 x 2 leather seating, free beverages and snack. Typically, this service is available to travelers on the day of departure for a $40 per segment fee. However, if you frequently fly the airline, I would ask for complimentary upgrades.

Also you might find that you can increase your chances for an upgrade by booking directly on the Spirit web site—airlines prefer when you book directly through them. In addition, you can find some good fares by using their Syber Specials, offered online from 12:00 am EST/EDT most Fridays through 11:59 pm EST/EDT Sundays. You can register for these fares at http://www.spiritair.com/netspecials/welcome.cfm.
Good Luck
