2. You shouldn't have a problem, even if you can't pick your seats

Most, if not all of the fleet at Spirit is based on the Airbus 320 series with a 3 and 3 seating arrangement. This means that each row has 2 aisle, 2 window, and two center seats. This means the chances of any one of you getting an aisle or window seat is double that for a center seat. Everyone hates the center seats. So just trade someone in a center seat next to one of you for one of your other aisle or window seats.

Arrive at the gate early and tell the gate agent. They will usually accommodate families with small children and will often find seats so all of you are together.
