Spirit Airlines Raises Going-Concern Doubts After Bankruptcy
Spirit Airlines, which is known for its yellow planes, is worried about staying in business.
Even after getting out of bankruptcy, they are facing problems like not enough people flying and not much money.
They plan to sell some of their things and cut costs to try and fix it.
They are having a hard time because of weak demand, and they expect these issues to stick around.
This has led them to seek cost-cutting measures, including pilot furloughs and downgrades.

The airline cited adverse market conditions and weak demand as reasons for concern.
Spirit expects these challenges to persist through 2025.
The company plans to sell assets and cut costs to boost liquidity.
