Frontier Airlines is one of the most well-known low-cost carriers in the US, akin to EasyJet or RyanAir in Europe. That means meaning it forgoes luxuries or frills of any kind, with a focus instead on keeping fares as cheap as possible. They’re not the most comfortable or high-end airlines, but they’ll get you where you want to go.
A standard fare on Frontier Airlines is about as basic as it gets on any US airline (which is pretty basic). You do not get to choose a seat, bring a carry on, or get any food or drinks. You can pay extra for all those services, including to select a seat ($11-$55 each way), to bring a carry-on bag ($69+ each way), or to board early (around $10 per person). As with basically every airline in the US (shoutout to Southwest, as the exception), checking a bag is an additional fee, starting at $48 each way. There’s also a weight limit of 40 pounds per checked bag, which is less than most other US airlines. Overweight bags will cost $70 to $100 each.
If those costs feel like they’re adding up a bit high, travelers can choose a higher fare class, like a premium bundle, which includes a carry-on, early boarding, and seat selection; or the business bundle, which includes two checked bags, a carry-on, early boarding, and “UpFront Plus” seating, with a guaranteed empty seat next to you and better leg room than in the standard seats. Both packages are far more expensive than the standard discount fares listed above.
