In Conjunction with the New Service, the Airline is Running a One-Day $1 Fare Sale. To Celebrate, Consumers Are Invited to Enter a Drawing to Win an All-Expense Paid Trip to French Polynesia

DENVER – April 1, 2024 – Ultra-low fare carrier Frontier Airlines (NASDAQ: ULCC) will add wide-body aircraft to its fleet beginning in June. In addition to lie-flat seating, the new aircraft will feature a chef-curated inflight menu and free Wi-Fi for all passengers. To kick off its new long-haul service, Frontier is introducing twice-weekly flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York (JFK) to Mote Mute Airport in Bora Bora, French Polynesia (BOB) beginning June 1, 2024.

To celebrate the new service, America’s Greenest Airline is offering a one-day-only fare sale with flights to Bora Bora for $1*. Flights must be booked by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on April 1, 2024, for travel through June 26, 2024.

Frontier is also holding a random drawing for 100 lucky winners who will receive an all-expense paid trip for the winner plus three friends to visit Bora Bora. The first 10,000 individuals who sign up for the airline’s FRONTIER Miles frequent flyer program will be entered to win.

“This is a monumental day in the history of Frontier Airlines,” said Frontier CEO Barry Biffle. “With the addition of new wide-body aircraft to our fleet, we are turning the airline industry on its head with a new luxury flight experience that is a total reimagining of our business model. We are also proud to be the first U.S. ultra-low cost carrier to offer service to the South Pacific.”

The airline’s recently enhanced, industry-leading frequent flyer program, FRONTIER Miles, enables consumers to ‘Get It All For Less.’ Customers earn miles fast and get rewarded for each dollar spent on Frontier products. Miles accrue based on dollars spent with a standard 10X multiplier: $1 = 10 miles. Mileage multipliers increase at every elite level up to 20X. Elite status enables members to enjoy benefits like priority boarding, free seat selection, no change or cancel fees when changes are made seven days or more in advance of flight departure, and free bag(s) at Gold, Diamond, and Platinum levels. Like the airline, FRONTIER Miles is family friendly, and the program makes it easy for families to enjoy the rewards together, including family pooling of miles. Joining is free.
