Travel Tips for Flying with Frontier Airlines

May 21, 2020

Frontier Airlines is known for their low cast fares and at times crazy travel fiasco. Low cost carriers like Frontier have a lot of mystery around booking them. I’ve received many questions about flying with Frontier and if it is really worth it the tempting low rates. I’ve compiled a list and we are going to talk about travel tips for flying with Frontier Airlines.

What’s included in the basic fare?

Frontier Airlines has a slogan of low fares done right. So let’s break down the fare and what is included in it:

  • 1 Personal Bag (18 in x 14 in x 8 in)
  • Change or Cancel option (will require a fee + fare difference)
  • Same Day Confirmed Flight option (will require a fee)
  • Ticket Transfer option (might require a fee + fare difference)

How can I upgrade from the basic fare?

Frontier Airlines has a couple of bundle options available. These are only available when booking directly.

What to expect at the gate:

  • Boarding is done by zones based on your ticket.
  • Be prepared to potentially have your personal item checked for correct size.

What to expect in flight:

  • Your personal item must be placed under your seat unless your flight is not full. I’ve had flights where flight attendants have allowed me to place my personal bag above.
  • In flight refreshments will be available for purchase by credit card online.
  • The seats do not recline.
  • Legroom measures in at 28 inches.

My ways to save and tips:

  • Get the right bag. I have these bags for my family that we use as the personal size item bags to avoid baggage fees. This is how I maximize my savings. Use space saver bags like these to help gain space.
  • Look for kids fly free dates. Frontier releases dates each year where kids can fly free with the purchase of an adult ticket. This is only available if you are a Discount Den member.
  • Consider joining the Discount Den. The cost is $59.99 a year that entitled you and your family to extra discounts on fares. The discount can be used for up to 6 people on your reservation. Click the link above to see all the features.

The biggest piece of advice that I can give is to have an open mind. Keep in mind that this is a discount airline and there are not any luxuries. You are not entitled to bigger bags because you booked a basic ticket. I’ve been able to purchase round trip tickets on Frontier for $79 to Orlando for a week long vacation without adding any bundles and just using the personal bag. If you pack smart and plan appropriately, Frontier can be a great cost savings to your vacations. I hope you enjoyed my travel tips for Frontier Airlines.
