Skies to Pies: Papa Johns Turns Spirit’s Grounded Loyalty Program into Free Pizza

Because when travel plans fall apart, pizza plans shouldn’t

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–As recent airline uncertainty has left many travelers clutching expired boarding passes and loyalty points that were rendered useless, Papa Johns is offering a soft landing. Introducing Skies to Pies, a limited‑time offer that transforms Spirit Airlines’ unusable loyalty program into something reliable: hot Papa Johns pizza.

“Loyalty points don’t mean much if you can’t use them,” said Shivram Vaideeswaran, SVP of Brand Marketing at Papa Johns. “While we can’t fix cancelled flights or lost membership points, hopefully we can provide a smile and a delicious pizza to those impacted.”

For a short time, eligible former Spirit loyalty members can convert proof of their loyalty into a free pizza. Stranded Spirit members can now find a home in Papa Rewards.

How Skies to Pies Works:

1. Show you were a Spirit Loyalty Member
   Direct message @PapaJohns on Instagram proof that you were a Spirit loyalty member
2. Join Papa Rewards
   Prove that you’re a Papa Rewards member by also direct messaging a screen shot of your Papa Johns account
3. Get Your Pizza
   Once verified, Papa Johns will send the first 250 people a code for a free large one‑topping pizza. While supplies last.

That’s it. No blackout dates. No middle seats. Just – Better Ingredients. Better Pizza.
