Ultra-low-cost carrier Frontier plans to launch new nonstop service on several routes starting in May and June 2024. The announcement includes the airline’s return to Newark after a two-year hiatus, with nearly twice-daily service to San Juan (SJU) starting on June 27.

The Denver-based airline will also begin its first-ever flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) with twice-daily service to San Juan starting on June 6. Recently, Frontier opened a crew base in San Juan, which is expected to employ a total of 90 pilots and 200 flight attendants.

Frontier currently serves New York’s LaGuardia Airport with up to 16 daily flights, according to Cirium Diio data.
