While some airlines are ending perks for customers, Frontier Airlines says it is doubling down on efforts to grab those frequent flyers by offering flight deals and special perks.
“Your New Love”, a new Frontier initiative, allows customers to receive a free carry-on bag, free seat selection and free flight changes, the company announced in a news release Tuesday.
“We’ve always had heart,” Frontier Airlines CEP Barry Biffle said in a news release. “Some airlines are walking away from what travelers love, but we’re running towards it. Think of this as the ultimate ‘divorce your old airline’ deal. If travelers show us the love, we’ll make these perks permanent.”
Among the deals Frontier is offering are fares starting at $39 — even as low as $29, free checked bags, first class seating and more.
Here’s what to know about the frontier deals.
