The budget airline has made some sweeping changes.

The competition follows several significant upgrades to the loyalty program earlier this year, including introducing a lower status tier with additional benefits. Tyri Squyres, Vice President of Marketing at Frontier Airlines, commented on the excitement of the promotion:

“We’re going for the gold with our ‘G.O.A.T.’ sale. With destinations from coast to coast, plus the Caribbean and beyond, now is the time to celebrate victory with an amazing flight deal.

“Plus, we’ll give 100 lucky winners the champion treatment for a year with complimentary FRONTIER Miles Elite Status!”

The sweepstakes is open to all residents of the United States (excluding the District of Columbia, New York, and Florida) who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry. The entrant can also collect a bonus entry by sharing the sweepstakes landing page on their personal social media accounts.

What are the perks?

Frontier’s FRONTIER Miles loyalty program is one of the more straightforward options in the US. Customers earn miles for each dollar spent on Frontier products, with a standard 10X multiplier: $1 = 10 miles. These mileage multipliers increase at every elite level up to 20X. Elite Gold Status is traditionally earned by accumulating 20,000 Elite Status Points in a calendar year and comes with the following benefits:

  • A complimentary carry-on bag.
  • There is no change/cancel fee for the Member and up to eight other travelers on the same reservation up to a week before departure.
  • Standard or Preferred Seat Assignments are available at the time of booking, and Premium or Preferred Seat Assignments are available upon check-in.
  • Priority Boarding: Zone 1 and Zone 2 for up to eight travel companions
  • Receive a 40% Mile/Point Multiplier Earned through eligible purchases on the Frontier website.
