It's not easy to keep fares so low.

We fly new airplanes.
Our airplanes are new. That means we have some of the most efficient aircraft in the industry. That saves money! We pass that savings onto you.
We charge for checked bags.
Bags weigh a lot. Heavier planes cost more to fly. By charging, we carry less bags and pass the savings onto you.
We charge for carry-on bags.
Fewer carry-on bags allows for faster boarding. This means we have more time to use our planes which saves us money. We pass the savings onto you. More importantly, it ensures your carry-on will get on the plane.
It's always cheaper online.
If you buy your bags and seats in advance you wont need extra help at the airport. That saves money and so do you.
We have state of the art seats.
Our seats have been carefully designed to maximize space and comfort. More importantly they are light weight which saves millions of gallons of fuel each year. This means we can lower our fares. BONUS: Our seats are pre-reclined so no one can recline on you!
There are no
TVs or WiFi.
The equipment to provide TV and WiFi on airplanes is VERY expensive and heavy. By removing these, we save millions in fuel costs. We pass that savings to you in our low fares.
Buy your drinks and snacks.
All airlines charge for drinks and snacks, they just wrap it in the cost of the ticket. By charging for it separately, we save money and let you decide what is important!

Fun & Friendly Service

 

At Frontier we're doing it right,
one passenger at a time, starting with you.

 

We like to save you green by being green.

Green isn’t just the color of our logo, it is the way we do business. Recognized as an industry leader in airline fuel-efficiency by The International Council on Clean Transportation, we work hard to be efficient in every way.  A great example of this dedication is our ultra-light weight seats, made from recycled leather products. This seemingly small change is estimated to bring big results: reducing the weight of each seat will save 214 gallons of fuel per year. Wow!
