ATLANTA -- A new advertising campaign from Spirit Airlines has some tongues clicking.
The Fort Lauderdale-based airline, which specializes in flights to the Caribbean, is advertising a "Many Islands, Low Fares" special.
On Spirit's web site they are calling the offer the "MILF" sale; short for "Many Island, Low Fares."
Some Internet bloggers have pointed that "MILF" is known as an obscene acronym in some circles. It is used to describe an attractive older woman.
Some bloggers suggest the use of "MILF" is an unintentional oversight by the airline.
Others say Spirit knows exactly what they are doing. They point to the image of a Caribbean island in the ad that has been altered to resemble a reclining woman.
ROTFLMAO...............

BAH-HA! Oh my God that's too funny -- when you click in the Spirit Air site, you can't miss the "reclining woman" island image right before the big huge MILF letters come up (and lots of the flight prices are $69 -- I'm sure that was "unintentional" too, right?
). Well, hey, it worked, we're talking about it and I went to the Spirit Air site which I've never done before in my life... so I bet those marketing guys will be getting big fat bonuses for their "gaff".
