"Many Islands, Lower Fares" isn't a bad tagline for an airline promotion. We bet it sounds pretty good on daytime radio. But you know what would have been better? Um, how about anything that didn't acronymize into a porno term?
The fire sale by Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-based Spirit Airlines promises "Many Islands, Low Fares" deals as low as $9 for future travel dates between Fort Lauderdale and the Bahamas.
While the prices may be right, it's that promotional acronym that's raised eyebrows among customers and now has the company feeling "uncomfortable."
Before MILF became shorthand for a Spirit Airlines promotion, the acronym hit the mainstream as an obscene descriptor of a mother considered to be sexy.
Sadly the fare sale ended last night at midnight, but don't worry: you can still apply online for the Spirit Airlines frequent flyer program. It's called the Mile High Club! ZING! Thanks everyone, we'll be here all week!
