Spirit Airlines announced Sunday that the budget carrier has nearly wrapped up the process of issuing refunds to passengers and moving crew members back to their home locations after the airline halted all flights over the weekend.
The company reported that the vast majority of travelers who purchased tickets using credit or debit cards had received their refunds by Saturday night, though a small number of transactions are still being completed.
Additionally, Spirit successfully relocated approximately 1,500 crew members to their assigned home bases during the weekend period.
Meanwhile, competing airlines have stepped in to help affected passengers by providing discounted emergency fares for those left without transportation options.
