What should I know about flying a budget airline?

Budget Airlines saved us a lot of money. However, they host an à la carte pricing structure, so they can cost extra if you aren't careful. One personal item is free. You have to pay extra for, seat-choice, carry-on bags, and checked bags. Make sure your personal item matches the airline's size requirements as they will check. As there is no Wi-Fi, free snacks, or outlets, bring your own snacks and entertainment!
