Experiences with Frontier Airlines?

Going to Denver in May and Frontier was like $200 less than any other airline. Paid $10 extra each way to have an extra 5 inches of leg room and get to sit in first 5 rows.
Am I gonna be surrounded by a bunch of poors? Worse than Southwest poors?

You should stick with one airline and only fly them IMO

Flew with them into Denver several years ago. No complaints and planes were new. I believe they have gone ultra low fares since then though so don't be surprised if they nickle and dime you for everything.

I'm surprised they were cheaper than United or Southwest. Just flew that route today and when booking, southwest was the cheapest. Their fares can be dirt cheap though, especially Nola-Trenton. Frontier has a bunch of hidden fees Here so take a look to know what you're getting into.

I believe they are taking the Spirit Airlines approach now so you can really come out ahead if you are traveling lightly.

I guess whatever brings in the most $$. They do have Spirit beat though with the animals on the tail

They are alright. Like somebody else said there are lots of hidden fees. If you bring a carry on it's like $35 I believe and don't forget to pay before going through security bc if you wait until you are boarding and they catch you without paying its $100 or $50 to check it in with the rest of your luggage. They have TVs but you have to pay to watch. And I believe the only beverage that's free on the plane is water....after all the b.s I just prefer United or Delta.

Lost my luggage first time I flew them. Will never fly them again. I'll stick with AA and SW.

Every airline loses luggage; Frontier is not special.

frontier flew me to durango in the oldest and shittiest plane i had ever been in....plus no employee showed up to our gate until an hour after the plane was supposed to have taken off....it was completely fricked

If you fly out of Nola get there early bc they only have two or three check in people.

Friend of mine had status with them. Asian first class airline -... No! Solid american airline that is a l good value play, yes. Just focus on the initial fees and you will be fine.
For th record I will b a delta platinum by month end. Not a brat just perspective. I fly a lot so don't worry about a lost bag or two.

It probably was still better than the old CV580 they flew me to Durango on, back in the day.
