Before private equity locks it up — passengers, workers, and communities can take it back. Join the Spirit 2.0 founding coalition.
$45 — roughly the price of one Spirit ticket. Non-binding pledge.
Spirit wasn't just another airline. It forced every major carrier to lower fares on competing routes. When Spirit flew a route, ticket prices dropped — for everyone, even passengers who never set foot on a Spirit plane. Economists call it "the Spirit effect."
Now Spirit is gone, and fares on its former routes are already climbing. Private equity firms are positioning to pick up the assets for pennies on the dollar and extract what value remains — without the workers, without the passengers, without you.
"The passengers, the workers, and the communities Spirit served can take it back. Like the Green Bay Packers. Like WinCo Foods."
The Green Bay Packers are the only publicly owned team in the NFL. WinCo Foods is majority owned by its own workers. Both have thrived under community ownership. We can do the same for low-cost aviation.
Spirit 2.0 is a community-owned airline built by the passengers, the workers, and the communities it serves. Here's what that means:
The price of a single Spirit ticket gets you in. No matter how much you pledge, every member gets exactly one vote. This is not a stock purchase — it's a founding commitment.
Voting power is reserved for the public — not venture capital. Any future institutional backers would be non-voting members. The movement belongs to the people who pledge.
Dividends and profits flow back to members proportionally to their pledge. You share in the upside of an airline you actually own.
Our mission is affordable air travel — not shareholder extraction. Spirit 2.0 will keep fares low because that's what the people who own it actually want.
The only publicly owned NFL franchise. Community-owned since 1923. One of the most beloved and financially stable teams in sports.
Majority owned by its own employees through a stock ownership plan. Consistently offers the lowest grocery prices in the markets it serves.
