Even if I won a ton of money tomorrow, I don’t think I’d stop flying Frontier.
Frontier is the Greyhound bus of the sky. It’s cheap, it pays like crap, it tries to squeeze you for money at every possible moment, and it promises absolutely nothing good will happen. Delays, cancellations, bumps, crew timeouts, maintenance issues, chaos at the gate… that’s the experience. And that’s exactly what you sign up for.
If you have a smooth flight, you beat the odds. If you paid next to nothing, you’re winning. Simple as that.
Want a Pepsi? Pay for it. Want a bag? Pay for it. Want to breathe comfortably at the gate without watching someone get hit with surprise fees and lose their mind? Wrong airline.
Honestly one of my favorite parts is the ambush fees. Watching unsuspecting passengers find out at the counter or gate is like live daytime TV. Arguments, yelling, airline vs passenger standoffs, sometimes it feels like Jerry Springer at 30,000 feet. Bonus points that the counter staff aren’t even Frontier half the time, they just swap name tags and walk over to Breeze.
I love it. Keep it up, F9. I’d fly an airline called Garbage if it was cheaper. One way or another, you’re paying. That’s flying.
So what’s your average Frontier experience? Rolling hot or full meltdown?
