Frontier

Frontier plans to launch 14 new routes this spring, including resuming service to Boise, Idaho, and Spokane, Washington.

Ultra-low-cost carrier Spirit has rejected yet another merger offer from Frontier as the carrier plans to go forward with restructuring.

During a recent earnings call, Frontier’s leaders say they are ready to move forward with the company’s latest proposal to purchase Spirit.

Should a transaction be finalized, Frontier and Spirit would become the fifth-largest U.S. airline with plans to serve 100 million passengers per year. 

The Department of Transportation has announced a lawsuit against Southwest and has fined Frontier for illegally operating multiple chronically delayed flights.

Frontier plans to add three new routes from New York’s JFK Airport later this year. The ultra-low-cost carrier first began service to the airport in June 2024.

Spirit and Frontier’s survival may very well depend on another merger attempt, says longtime airline founder David Neeleman.

The animal designs are typically rather large and colorful, making Frontier’s fleet easily recognizable among travelers and aviation enthusiasts.

In a Tuesday news release, the airline said the new seats will offer “unmatched comfort and space at Frontier’s trademark affordable prices.”

These new routes will connect passengers from 21 airports across the United States and the Caribbean, the carrier said in a Tuesday news release.
