Frontier Airlines

Bought Gold status back in Aug 2025 for $69 and it was supposed to last through Dec 2026. My husband’s account still shows Gold, but mine randomly dropped to Silver even though I paid for it and have flown this year. Tried chat support and got nowhere. They kept asking for more...

Frontier Airlines has announced plans to upgrade several parts of its customer experience over the next couple of years. According to remarks from Frontier Group Holdings’ Q4 2025 earnings call, the airline plans to roll out first class seating across the fleet, introduce...

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...

Had a pretty wild situation tonight flying ATL to Newark. About an hour into the flight we had to turn around because NYC airspace was closed due to weather. We went back to Atlanta and once we landed they told everyone the next available Frontier flight wasn’t until Friday at 7...

Had a frustrating experience with Frontier this morning. My flight was at 5:50am and I got to the airport around 4:50am because it took forever to get a Lyft/Uber. I understand that was on me. They wouldn’t accept my checked bag anymore and it was too big to convert to a carry...

Had a strange experience at ATL flying Frontier. While waiting at the gate I checked my boarding pass and everything looked normal with an assigned seat. But when boarding started, my seat number suddenly disappeared from the pass. Gate agents told me I had been selected with a...

Had one of the worst airline experiences I’ve ever dealt with flying Frontier. We got to the airport more than two hours early with golf clubs. The bag desk told us to carry them through TSA and take them to the gate. TSA immediately said that wasn’t allowed and sent us back....

Ran into an expensive lesson with Frontier despite having Platinum Elite status and the Frontier credit card, which includes no change or cancel fees. After changing a flight to a cheaper fare, the difference in price showed up as something called “Residual Value.” Instead of...

Thinking about getting the Frontier GoWild Pass, but the current flight availability doesn’t seem very promising. When checking flights, there don’t appear to be any next-day options available, even though the date checked isn’t listed as a blackout date. The earliest available...

Is there an actually complete direct route map for Frontier somewhere? The one on their website seems to be missing routes. For example, BWI to CUN doesn’t show up, and that’s definitely operating. Makes me think other seasonal or less frequent routes are missing too. Is there a...

Thinking about getting the Frontier card mainly for the free checked bags. I know it gives Gold status the first year, but I’m confused about how you keep Gold after that. Roughly how much regular, everyday spending would it take in a year to maintain it? Not talking about...

Trying to understand this. We paid for carry ons and seats in Groups 1 and 2, boarded early, and still got forced to check our bags. They said it was a full flight. What doesn’t make sense is that later boarding groups were allowed to bring theirs on. If overhead space was the...

I know Frontier gets dragged a lot, so I figured I’d share this. We were coming back from a cruise in San Juan, PHL direct, Business Bundle both ways. Blizzard hits, flight gets canceled around midnight. Total chaos across the East Coast. I had bought the $85 Disruption...

Flying Frontier for the first time this weekend. When I booked, I skipped paying to select a seat. Just wondering what happens next: • When I check in, will they automatically assign me a seat? • Or do I need to go to the counter and have someone assign one? Trying to avoid...

Just a heads up for anyone using Frontier at Houston IAH. Officially, Frontier lists Terminal A for check in and arrivals, and they do have gate A11 there. But during busier times they use overflow gates in Terminal D, which is basically on the opposite end of the airport. I’ve...

Flew Frontier Jan 22 into Memphis. Weather delay, fine, I get it. My checked bag didn’t make it back to Houston with me. Was told it would be delivered in a few days. Never happened. Since then I’ve called over and over and keep getting different answers. “Still in Memphis.”...

Saw this pop up and figured I’d share for anyone playing the GoWild game. It’s an independent search tool focused just on Frontier that scans routes and highlights GoWild availability, calendar view, even day trip ideas. Apparently it broke when Frontier changed their API but...

I’m based in Central TX so I can use SAT or AUS. I’ll need to be in AZ about once a month for a week at a time. PHX or LAS both work, LAS is a bit better. I’d also like the flexibility to hop to LAX sometimes to visit a friend. I do have some flexibility when I schedule work...

This might sound extra, but I’m flying Frontier and trying to avoid paying for a bag. If I put an empty tote inside my personal item to get through boarding, then once I’m on the plane move some of the clothes I’m wearing into the tote… can I get off the plane with both bags...

Saw an article saying Frontier’s expansion in Atlanta is now outpacing Denver, which is kind of wild considering DEN has basically been their longtime stronghold. Looks like they’re really doubling down on ATL lately. Curious if this means more routes, more frequency, or just...

I got an email saying that GoWild and Discount Den purchases would count toward the 12,500 points needed for the Platinum status challenge. I made the purchases, earned the points, and then called to confirm everything was applied correctly. That’s when they told me those don’t...

Flying Frontier for the first time and the baggage examples are seriously stressing me out. I paid for the economy bundle since I usually travel with a carry-on and a personal item and never have issues on other airlines. My carry-on is a small suitcase that fits overhead...

Never flown Frontier before and doing some research since the price difference is tempting. One thing that keeps popping up is how strict they are about carry on sizes, which honestly makes me a little nervous. If your bag gets measured at the gate and it’s too big, what...
