Spirit Airlines is suspending about 40 routes, including Hartford and Minneapolis, as part of a 25% reduction in its November schedule to cut costs amid its second bankruptcy in a year. The airline has also furloughed around 1,800 flight attendants and hired Andrea Lusso, a former Amazon Air executive, as vice president of network planning to optimize its operations.
