Facing bankruptcy risks, Spirit Airlines has announced aggressive measures including the sale of 23 older Airbus planes and significant staff cuts to stabilize its finances. With a goal of raising $519 million and reducing costs by around $80 million, the airline's stock surged 15.3% following the news. Additionally, Spirit is delaying $1.1 billion in bond debt payments and has secured up to $1 billion in liquidity.
