Frontier is one of the worst airlines operating in the states - almost every flight I've flown with them has been delayed or canceled/rescheduled.
Perhaps if it this was for a free check-in bag it might be good, but they are beyond sticklers when it comes to measuring size of carry-on bag and personal items; the gate agents actually get a bonus for every person they reject and are able to coerce to purchase the oversize fee at the gate.
Given this "deal" is only 7ish months too makes it sketch too.

Frontier is the absolute farking worst. I went on a trip last spring and had two checked bags for my wife and I. we arrived over two hours before our flight. It took over an hour to get through the bag check line, during which frontier staff were pushing people to the front based on their flight time. I asked several times "hey I am on X flight, I am worried I will not be able to check my bag in time. Is this the right line? Should i be expedited?"

Got to the front, and low and behold they couldn't get me on (58 minutes until flight). Only option was to rebook to a city 4 hours away, and get a rental. They offered no refund at the counter/credit for the original flight, and added "counter assistance" booking fees for each of our tickets. I was livid, but had no choice as this was a vacation and I couldn't cancel the whole thing. The hilarious part is the counter agent took so damn long that it was now less than an hour to the second flight, but she was able to call someone and get the bags on. Wouldn't it have been nice to do that in the first place?


Walked by my original flight before boarding started. Bullshit.

Reached out to support after who offered 2x $50 vouchers...



Never again will i fly frontier. fark them to friday and back.
American express took care of me thankfully.

I'm as pissed as everyone that Southwest is dropping their 2 checked bags free policy, but other airlines charge for carry-ons?

American allows one bag to be stowed in overhead - and another item that needs to be stowed under the chair in front of you. If you carry your bags to the end of the walkway they will sometimes allow you to check your bag there for free. I sometimes do this because I'm always the person who gets boarded last.

I believe I saw an article stating that United is looking to charge for carry ons.

Frontier is setup to generate additional fees any way they can.

Has anyone tried to use this match to match to JetBlue Mosaic I? And from there to United Silver? (And so on?) or does it end with JetBlue or nowhere because this is "promotional" status?
