The Department of Transportation said on Saturday the majority of airlines will be capping tickets prices for Spirit Airlines travelers who need to rebook their canceled flights.<\/p>\n

Some carriers have even reduced fares on high volume routes where Spirit used to operate.<\/p>\n

Spirit began winding down operations early Saturday morning\u00a0after talks between the airline and the federal government over a $500 million rescue deal stalled.<\/p>\n

Spirit said that travelers who booked their tickets with a credit or debit card will be automatically refunded.<\/p>\n

United, Delta, JetBlue and Southwest said they are capping ticket prices specifically for Spirit customers who need to rebook cancelled flights.<\/p>\n
