JARS Cannabis Supports Spirit Airlines Customers & Employees

— May 8, 2026 — Marketing
JARS Cannabis — a Michigan-based multi-state cannabis retailer — has launched a limited-time initiative that offers free products to travelers whose flights were canceled and employees who lost jobs due to the sudden shutdown of Spirit Airlines. Redemption is available at the company's Michigan locations from May 7 through May 15.

Eligible individuals simply need to present documentation — such as an employee ID or proof of a canceled flight — to receive one complimentary item from select brands including Jungle Juice, edible gem, Mr. Vapor Soar, and Spyder Legs, while Colorado locations will feature promotional offers with varying participating brands.

JARS Cannabis COO, Raymond Abro, shared: "While we operate in a different industry, we understand what it means to navigate sudden disruption. As a Michigan-based business, we're also experiencing our own challenges with recent changes to cannabis tax policy, and this is our way of showing up for the community in a moment like this."
