USDOT Announces Relief for Spirit Airlines Passengers and Employees

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy has announced a coordinated relief plan with major airlines to help travelers and employees affected by Spirit Airlines’ shutdown on May 2, 2026 Fox Business+1.

Relief for Passengers
Fare caps for rebooking: United, Delta, JetBlue, and Southwest are capping ticket prices for Spirit customers rebooking canceled flights.

United: Online for two weeks

Delta: Five days

JetBlue & Southwest: 72 hours (JetBlue online, Southwest in-person at counters) Department of Transportation+1

Passengers must provide a Spirit flight confirmation number and proof of payment to qualify.

Discounts on high-volume Spirit routes: American Airlines and Delta are offering reduced fares; Allegiant has frozen fares on overlapping routes; Frontier is giving up to 50% off base fares across its network until May 10 The Hill+1.

Refunds: Spirit will process refunds for credit/debit card payments. Passengers can also request a chargeback or check travel insurance for insolvency coverage. A formal “proof of claim” can be filed with a bankruptcy court for partial refunds The Hill+1.

Relief for Employees
Travel support: Most major carriers are extending travel pass benefits and spare jump seats to help pilots, flight attendants, and other staff return home The Free Press - Tampa+1.

Preferential hiring: American Airlines and United have created dedicated microsites for Spirit employees to apply for jobs, with expedited interview opportunities for pilots, flight attendants, baggage handlers, and call center staff Fox Business+1.

Workforce reintegration: The plan aims to connect displaced aviation workers to new job opportunities in a competitive hiring market Department of Transportation.
Context
The shutdown followed Spirit’s decision to cease operations amid a sudden and sustained rise in fuel prices, after the Biden administration blocked the JetBlue–Spirit merger in 2024, which Duffy cited as a contributing factor The Hill+1. The Trump administration says it is committed to ensuring passengers are not stranded, communities maintain route access, and fares do not spike Department of Transportation.

Tip for travelers: Act quickly to rebook or claim refunds, as many fare caps and discounts are time-limited. Check each airline’s website for current offers and requirements.

TSA At Newark: Expect 10-30 minute wait times. Check wait times on line before leaving the house and inform your driver.
⚠️ Shutdown impact is real
The DHS shutdown has already forced Philadelphia Airport’s Terminal C to close its TSA checkpoint entirely — but this has NOT happened at Newark.

What’s Actually Happening at Newark (EWR)
✅ Checkpoints remain open
All three terminals (A, B, C) continue to operate TSA screening. There is no airport‑wide closure of TSA.
⚠️ BUT… multiple lanes — especially PreCheck lanes — have been closed at times
Live data shows several PreCheck checkpoints marked “Closed” across Terminals A, B, and C.
These closures are tied to staffing shortages from the DHS shutdown.
⚠️ Staffing shortages = longer lines
• 300+ TSA workers have quit nationwide since the shutdown began.
• Call‑outs have doubled.
• Newark’s general security wait times have ranged 5–30 minutes, but can spike depending on the hour.

Had a call for a hospital run this morning. Decided to use the 4wd pkup due to the weather.
Plows overnight pushed frozen snow/sleet/ice ridden in the driveways which turned into rock hard ice boulders. Couldn't break them up or move them...so....drove over them like a rock crawling off roader. Navigated the iced over secondary streets to the pickup and then to the drop off in Brick.
Nothing stops The Satellite. Nothing !
