Spirit Airlines’ Free Spirit loyalty program points expire if there’s no account activity for 12 months, but this rule doesn’t apply to Spirit Airlines Free Spirit credit card holders, whose points never expire as long as their account remains open and in good standing.
To prevent point expiration, members must earn or redeem points at least once every 12 months through activities such as booking flights, renting a car, online shopping, or dining out.
It’s crucial to keep track of your Free Spirit account activity and points balance to avoid losing your rewards. You can easily monitor your account online or through the Spirit Airlines mobile app. If you notice that your points are nearing expiration, take action by earning or redeeming some points to extend their validity.
