A passenger named Jessica Stanton flew to Boston on Thursday.

Jessica's return flight was canceled. She didn't get a refund or any messages.

Spirit said refunds might take some time to appear.

The airline had financial problems and filed for bankruptcy twice.

A government official said Spirit was losing money and had to close.

Another official blamed the Biden Administration for Spirit's shutdown.

President Trump wanted to give Spirit $500 million to help.

Some lenders didn't like this idea. Spirit's board meeting didn't agree on a rescue plan.

The CEO said the airline needed more money to stay in business.

The CEO was very disappointed.

Other airlines are helping stranded passengers with cheaper tickets.
