Joists are either made of wood, engineered wood, or steel, each of which have unique characteristics. Typically, wood joists have the cross section of a plank with the longer faces positioned vertically. However, engineered wood joists may have a cross section resembling the Roman capital letter I; these joists are referred to as I-joists.
What is the Passenger Usage Fee? The cornerstone of the lawsuit is Spiritâs Passenger Usage Fee (PUF). The fee is $8.99 â $16.99 per customer, each way. In other words, when you purchase a round trip ticket, you will pay an additional $17.98 â $33.98 on top of your airfare. The fee is listed as an optional booking-related fee on Spiritâs website. The lawsuit claims that this is deceptive and misleading as the majority of passengers pay the PUF. Technically, the fee is optional. In order to avoid the fee, passengers have to purchase at Spiritâs airport ticket counters.
Here's what to expect (and how to make sure you're getting the best prices for your route) when flying with Spirit. The cheapest fares available via Spirit's airfare promotions are exclusively for members of the airline's $9 Fare Club. The Fare Club gives access not only to cheaper fares but also reduced bag fees. But hold on to your wallet, because membership to Spirit's famed $9 Fare Club actually costs $59.95 for the first year.
