Had a slightly odd experience on a Frontier ATL to Detroit flight this morning and I’m still wondering what the reason was.
I paid a grand total of $37.96 for the roundtrip a few weeks ago. No extras at all. The 6am flight was on an A321neo and it was basically empty. Maybe one passenger per six-seat row.
I was assigned 14D and the flight attendant told me I could take 14A so I’d have the whole row. Nice start.
Right before departure she came back and said she needed four volunteers from rows around 14-16 to move to the back of the plane. Then she realized there were only four of us sitting there anyway, so we all had to move.
I ended up with rows 35A-C to myself and we departed.
Just curious why they’d do that on such an empty flight. It didn’t seem like a weight balance issue with so few people onboard. I was going to ask but the turbulence was pretty constant so the FA never came back around.
