Frontier Airlines Launches More Low-Fare Service from Syracuse Hancock International Airport

SYRACUSE, New York – Low-fare carrier Frontier Airlines is celebrating the start of additional service from Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR) with the launch of the only non-stop flights to Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) and Tampa International Airport (TPA). Additional connections will be available to select cities across Frontier’s network. Officials will mark the day with a celebration at the Frontier ticket counter. To mark the start of this new, low-cost service, Frontier is offering fares as low as $59, which are available now at FlyFrontier.com. The new flights join Frontier’s existing service from Syracuse to Orlando and summer seasonal service to Chicago, Denver, and Raleigh.

“We are excited to be adding service and proud to expand our unique brand of Low Fares Done Right in Syracuse,” said Jonathan Freed, Director of Corporate Communications for Frontier Airlines. “Frontier is always looking for ways to make travel easier and more affordable, and our reimagined frequent flier program with family-friendly benefits and attainable elite status, as well as our reduced change fees – free if you make changes more than 90 days before you fly – are the latest examples of what we mean by Low Fares Done Right.”

Frontier offers customers the ability to customize travel to their needs and budget. For example, you can purchase options a la carte or in one low-priced bundle called the WORKSsm. This bundle includes refundability, a carry-on bag, a checked bag, the best available seat, waived change fees, and priority boarding.

“We are excited to celebrate the launch of Frontier’s newest destinations from Syracuse and for their continued partnership with the airport authority,” said Christina Callahan CM, Executive Director. “With the addition of Fort Myers and Tampa, our customers now have even more affordable options to Florida.”
