Spirit goes to new lengths to press its case for Venezuela

Spirit Airlines' quest to attain long-coveted service to Venezuela took an interesting turn when the carrier seized on an opportunity to criticise the Venezuelan Government for foot-dragging on its authorisation to serve the country through a routine renewal of US-Venezuela authority for small cargo charter carrier Sundance Air Venezuela. Spirit appears to be seizing on any opportunity to highlight the Venezuelan Government's slow approval process for its flights to the country.
