Quite nutty. That's with no bag at all. Carry-on starts at $30. See if this works. Hotel availabilities seem limited (Google Maps) Edited: 08/13/2017 at 03:54 PM by ww |

I think you need to sign up for their membership first to get that. I just took Alaska Airlines MCO-SAN out last week, and Frontier's redeye back. Cheap enough, even after adding a few bags and exit seat upgrade to the deal.
It was Frontier's redeye back to MCO, and their exit row seats would not recline. I spent the savings on sleep aids, a chiropractor and massage therapist. But hotels exist once you get out of SD proper, into north SD County, etc... |

That particular fare is not membership, surprisingly. I was looking around at fares because a Sept. trip to Portland was starting to look too expensive--great air fare but I need to figure out how to get into the countryside to make it affordable. Of course the whole thing's likely to be cancelled due to hurricane season. |

For long flights, pay for the "Works" on Frontier that gives you one checked bag, a carry on, seat selection and the ability to change flights with no cost. It's probably only 40 more than bringing a checked bag. You can select row 2 which has great stretch seating and reclines. Row one has a bulkhead and you can't stretch your feet. Row three has somebody right behind you and you feel bad about reclining.
I came back from Denver last night on the redeye. I paid 70 each way on top of my cheap fair. My fare almost equaled Southwest. However, unlike Southwest, I got a great seat and nobody was even sitting in my row.
I can sit in back on Frontier going to Atlanta, but not Denver. For a weekend in Atlanta, I am willing to pay $79, bring a small backpack and sit anywhere.
For Denver, I also joined the DENdeals since it was cheaper than the base airfare and I fly several times per year.

I did, specifically for that reason. Frontier is an unfortunate exception.
