Book Flights through Skyscanner (for a great deal) ✈ skyscanner.pxf.io/jrkaea

[@albertparrales1960]

UPDATE: With Frontier a checked bag is now 40 lbs and NOT 50, just an FYI.

[@Zachus]

Yep, they all do this from time to time to get you. The budget airlines do...

[@pedrotinaco1]

They do mention that on the website

[@nativedoll3557]

True I just booked a flight to nyc from Atlanta and I was like wow so only reason I flew frontier is bc it’s a quick flight usually under 2 hrs but yea frontier stinks

[@hothotheat3000]

They’re great for day trips out of town where you’re bringing nothing with you. If you don’t care where you sit, if it’s a short flight (under 2 hours), and if you don’t bring anything, you can score an INSANE deal.

[@terrylin6758]

I regularly fly with just a personal item between Atlanta and Orlando and Spirit and Frontier are my top choices for this trip just cuz they're so damn cheap. Even weekend trips are always under $80 roundtrip, most of the time it's around $50. Insane.

[@WakandaBabe]

I NEVER check bags no matter where I am going, even overseas. I am the packing Queen! I'm flying Frontier on a two hr, non-stop flight soon. Taking a personal item, within their measurements, lightly packed. Costing me less than $50 (the city bus to the airport, which I travel for free, is 1 block from my house.) It's a budget airline and for 2 hrs I can forgo any 'perks.'

[@debbest8546]

Not bad. I wonder if it would be cheaper to go to WMT and buy what I need, toss it when I'm done...

[@lakesailor123]

Personally even with the checked bags being expensive, I was still 600 dollars cheaper then delta.

[@blackcarriebradshaw]

Exactly! And with Spirit, you can book the flight one day, then wait until it’s almost time to fly and purchase your bags. I usually wait until the following payday to buy the extras. Been doing it for years.

[@jnpnmn]

@@blackcarriebradshaw dude same literally booked my vacations like this for ages now, do it in stages and I always fly “first class” (big front seat) on spirit or frontier wherever I’m going, WITH baggage for still cheaper than a delta flight

[@CryptoChef99]

If u have no bags at all it's a great choice but they kill u on bags. Frontier just lowered the checked bags to 40 POUNDS. FOR $80. If your going to somewhere where your gonna buy alot of souvenirs it's much better to use SW or American to fly back.

[@Roamingraven37]

I'm a die hard south west flier but I just need to fly to pick up a car so I am flying frontier because all I have is my purse and I was told 1 personal item is included and idc where I set. I hope I have no issues and get there safe 🙏

[@primrosetx9571]

Thank you so much for the fight flap! I have been wondering all this time that there has to be someone who invented a phone holder for airplane. I am so glad to find your channel 👍

[@Zachus]

Yeah its awesome!

[@noodlechan3923]

Thank you for the informative video!! Flew on a HUGE time crunch so frontier was the best that we could do but I was super skeptical about the price. Everyone should watch this video and be informed before flying with any budget airline!

[@Zachus]

Hope your trip was good

[@sdemonte90]

BTW first time flyer WITH children and i found ur content helpful! So thank you. But i know snacks will be very helpful for my kids 😆

[@rubyfirefly2582]

I'll be flying Frontier end of this month. I was surprised to find out that there are no outlets. I just assumed that was standard on airlines now. But frankly I'm glad to hear it. Have everything charged and then read a book. I'm hoping this will actually make the flight a little quieter. I like it.

[@Zachus]

Yeah most planes are older so they didn't have a need for this. Every now and then you'll hit a new plane that has them. Have an awesome flight!! Good luck with it being quiet haha. This is why I recommend Bose Quiet Comforts, they noise cancelling headphones that make it more pleasant amzn.to/3umSUuz

[@monicap9662]

Thanks for the tips. I'm a diehard Southwest flier, but I'm taking my first Frontier flight to Vegas in a couple weeks. I think I'm going to be bringing more plane comforts than luggage. Got my pillow, my feet hammock, my snacks and water, my phone and laptop, portable charger, my phone flap (now that I know about that from your video), and battery operated neck fan in case we get stuck on the hot tarmac.

[@notsofancyqueen4794]

Same! Flying to Vegas with frontier the day after tomorrow, I’ve only flown southwest so I’m studying up 😂

[@kayc4025]

Same. Going for my birthday Oct 2ND ! Leaving on the 1st! But did he say no carryons

[@ericaSrami-womanatthewell]

How was your flight with Frontier? Any complaints?

[@sdemonte90]

Good points!!! I'm a first time flyer with kids so I really need to know can I bring snacks from home and water and put them in the kids personal bag? The free bag

[@BrandonHanson]

You're such a big help. Thanks for getting me prepared before doing my first flight with this airline. Hopefully can be a future airline like how I fly with American Airlines, Delta Airlines, JetBlue, and United Airlines. Keep up the good work. 👏👊

[@michaelgreen9924]

Lots of great tips. If already purchased checked bags with the bundle, do I also need to pay (in advance or at airport) to talk with an agent when checking the bags? I plan to use my phone for boarding pass so didn’t add on the “pre-purchase agent assistance” but now wondering if should have pre-purchased because of the checked bags. Also looking forward to being done with the useless masks.

[@Zachus]

If you purchased checked you're good. Drop them at the ticket counter like any other airline. 🙌 yes we're one of the only countries doing the mask still on planes. CDC already said they don't work... 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@oddowen250]

Only direct flight option for us to Denver and we have 3 kids (age 7, 4, and 6 months)! Thank you for the information!!! I learned a lot.

[@Zachus]

Totally get it. I've had friends have to fly them for this reason. You got to do what you got do.

[@shydewalters10]

Literally the only reason I booked with Frontier it was between them and spirit for a nonstop flight to Vegas ugh

[@Zachus]

Been there, totally get it

[@jamiestanley9234]

I am flying frontier for the first time this summer. I got 3 round trip tickets, upgraded to seats on row 3 for all of us, paid for 3 checked bags, and it was $730! Flights are non stop and under 2 1/2 hours. This is waaaay cheaper than any other airline I checked. Now I will say don’t go into a budget airline flight expecting it to be southwest 😂 we will bring our own snacks/drinks. And as for entertainment, are we so far gone that we can’t make it a few hours without Wi-Fi?! It’s all what you make it. Don’t have high expectations but also maintain a positive attitude!

[@Itsclaireasday]

I have no choice but to fly either Allegiant or Frontier from Norfolk to Orlando because these are the only direct flights/carriers. I’m leaning towards Frontier because they fly to Orlando on Saturdays and they fly into Orlando MCO.

[@Zachus]

Yep been there and it's all good. I've done both for the same reason and you should be good either way. I've flown Frontier into Orlando and it was fine. The flight in this video is actually DFW to MCO.

[@Wizzay2]

Great video. Confused about the overhead thing. I’m in row 2 on my upcoming flight and wondering if I should move.

[@Zachus]

The first 2 rows are great, just have to deal with some weirdness here from the flight attendance. Once everything clears just put the rest of your stuff up. You paid extra for the seat, at least I did so... Hope you have a great flight!

[@mariaarriola6329]

Great video thanks

[@Zachus]

Thank you

[@davidperry4013]

It depends on the duration of the trip if it’s a 3 night summer trip or 2 night winter trip or double that with vacuum bags, I would go for Frontier. Otherwise I’d do the math. I flew frontier to Vegas and I’m pleasantly surprised, the seats are super firm but I was comfortable. The stretch seats are just as firm but very comfortable and I literally fell asleep on my return flight. I might as well use Frontier even for a business trip because I work for a smaller company.

[@Zachus]

Very true

[@The080572]

Thank you for the informative video! I've never flown Frontier before. On my upcoming trip, both ways, I am in row 5C....no carry on bag, but I have a purse. Will they let me stow it under the seat? It's within their required size limit.

[@Zachus]

You'll have no issues. You can take a purse and a backpack. You might get it up above you but most likely it will go under the seat in front of you. Have fun

[@saintpansy]

Flying tomorrow with them. I'm so nervous but this video helped me so much.

[@Zachus]

So glad it helped. I hope you have an awesome ✈️ flight

[@Vibesfrome2you]

How did it go

[@minailz09]

Thanks totaly apreciate

[@anitamoreno8707]

Thank you for the info on Frontier. It is very helpful. I agree with you and support freedom! And yes, some of the flight attendants on another airline were ridiculous and rude about the masks. Thank goodness we have passed the masking. I wonder how the flight attendants feel now about the way they treated people??

[@maragrace820]

“I did my job” .... an employee with no morals. Who gave us hard times for masks will never see me again. Costco did not accept my medical certificate even so if I starved they did not care. They lost my family.

[@evetsdn]

Flying from Orlando to Dallas $97 RT. I don't travel with my kitchen sink. Leave all your crap at home that you won't be using any ways. I've flown Frontier many times and had all great experiences. The plane that I will be on tomorrow has over 200 empty seats , I don't care where I sit. If some big dude is sitting by me , I'll move over one. Tip= instead of 8 hrs of sleep the night before I go for 4 hrs, get on the plane and zonk out. 3 hrs later the pilot is saying "Ladies and gentleman welcome to Dallas"

[@Zachus]

Awesome! Yeah if that's how you travel then it's perfect

[@pierrepiea3279]

I'm like you with the "go tired" thing.

[@RB-gt8bf]

Question: Thanks for info. Once I have booked a flight and paid for a particular seat can I go back and change to a stretch seat and pay the additional cost? We paid for our seat select, board first, and a carry on. Oh also can we bring an empty steel 20 ounces reusable bottle thru TSA and fill before we get on our flight, or can we bring a bottle of water purchased after getting thru TSA. We do have TSA precheck already too.

[@Zachus]

As long as they are available then yes you can always upgrade through the app or online website. Yes I carry a yeti large Tumblr empty through TSA for a long haul flights to keep my water cool which I purchase after TSA. You can always take on water, coke etc into the plane which I highly recommend.

[@BONA7902]

I just flew Frontier from CUN to MCO FOR $99 on a Sunday. It was the most perfect airline I've ever flown on. I had a medical issue and was looked after by the ground crew and treated excellently. No complaints what's so ever. It was a two hour flight so no annoying food carts blocking bathroom usage. The cabin crew was great not as intrusive as those on other airlines. I chose random seating and got the one I would have chosen. I'll fly it again just to check if it was just a lucky roll of the dice. No charge for my backpack either. BINGO!

[@CryptoChef99]

Including all the baggage fees?

[@grobinson4805]

I missed a flight not knowing about the paper boarding pass once… the line was 40mins long for service and my flight took off in an hour. I had no bags to check.

[@evanrivera1995]

Hi a have a doubt is there any way that I can choose my seat,because I am person when I travel I like to record so I saw on yt a good angle from seats 4,5 or 6A but I never can go in the front seats of the plane,is there any way or tip that I can use to get front seats on a plane or I can pay extra ?

[@Zachus]

Frontier has no first class seating. You can pick any seat Available during checkout/booking for a fee. Seats up front are generally higher $$ Hope this helps

[@Zachus]

Also if you fly Southwest, part to go to A group and you will likely get to choose a front seat. United, American, Delta, Spirit always let you pick a front seat in Economy and First Class for a fee depending on what class you choose during booking. Some front seats are included in your class.

[@shamimfiroz3306]

You are correct frontier is mafia 👑

[@danielkozowski5531]

How strict is Frontier with carry on baggage size? I have a bag 19,5"x14"x8" (personal item is 18"x14"x8") and I wonder if there will be a problem.

[@Zachus]

Should be fine. I travel with an Away Travel carry on large. No issues

[@Ed_Belen]

Would it be worth it buying a comfort from Fargo to Orlando??? Yeezzzz concerned about my but and back in standard 😳😳

[@Zachus]

I 1000% agree lol

[@kellygreen5556]

Tip one: don't fly any airline that charges extra for a carry on bag!

[@remirichter7988]

Just fly Delta

[@spencerschubert5001]

So, if one round trip flight is $400 with carry-on allowed, and Frontier is $150 for the same itinerary but $80 each way for carry on. Even if you have a carry-on you still save about $100 with Frontier. If you don’t have a carry-on, you saved more than $200

[@melbygrace]

Great video. One major Q I have, are you saying that the non stretch seating doesn’t recline?! We are going to Mexico soon and have stretch only for the leg to Mexico, but not for the return. I am wondering if I will have major regrets. 😂

[@Zachus]

Most budget airlines and even some major airlines on newer planes introduced do not recline at all or very little. Spirit and Frontier and Allegiant so far have not had reclining seats regardless of what seat you choose. I had no idea Frontier flew to Mexico. The extra leg room is well worth it on any airlines in my opinion. Hope you have an awesome trip!!

[@pierrepiea3279]

Yes, you will have major regrets. Sorry. Been there today and never, EVER flying with them again.

[@tassymccormick]

Frontier doesn’t have enough staff, causing a backed up line to check your bag at Orlando airport on 2/14/22 when we were there. Arrived 3 hours early, only to have to stand in a 1.5 hour line to check our suitcase, then another over one hour long line for TSA, causing us to miss our flight by 3 minutes. Cost us $840 we hadn’t budgeted for to book a flight with delta, because frontier didn’t have another flight to our destination until 4 days later. I will never fly frontier again.

[@Zachus]

Yeah you cannot miss your flight with any of the budget airlines as they have very little to no extra flights out and usually only fly to destinations on certain days. I'm so sorry this happened. They should have helped you out. We're not flying them again either.

[@tassymccormick]

@@Zachus oh they didn’t care. I was told I could call for a refund, and I tried that and was told “you must cancel your flight 24 hours in advance to receive a refund” I said “So I was supposed to be psychic and know that it would take us THREE hours to check our back and get through TSA. Ok. Gotcha”

[@byrongrimsley500]

Wow. Damn thats definitely brutal

[@pierrepiea3279]

Orlando airport is horrible. Flew Frontier from New Orleans to Mouseville. Got stuck there because the plane coming in for us to go to Raleigh hit a goose and was grounded. They had to scramble and find another plane for us. (I have no problem with the bird strike - that can cause a ton of damage so it wasn't their fault.) But the communication was terrible. Frontier wants to charge you any way they can and they hard sell you left and right. Brought alone one too many pairs of underwear? That'll cost you $100 at the airport. Leg room is atrocious and I am only 5'2". But I have to say the aircrew was fabulous, funny, and worked their butts off to get us there under tough circumstances.

[@mellievern1161]

I didn't see the "bundle" option on Orbitz so am I screwed? Should I book by the individual airline-Frontier? Why am i paying for seats???? Is that something that won't happen if i book form the airline directly? Ugh...such hassles..

[@Zachus]

In all my videos I stress not to use 3rd party sites like Orbitz. Always book directly with the Airline. Any budget airline like Frontier charges for everything. Did you watch my video? 😁 I go over all of this haha maybe I need to do a better job

[@ksfpubstar2]

Flew delta my first time every flying and it went great. Im scared now flying with frontier on a 4.5hr flight. Also i did just a checked bag and will do personal item and i should've done two check bags at least my bag wouldn't get lost. Hoping its better than in my head.

[@Zachus]

It'll be fine just don't expect Delta 😉

Wanting to buy the "Go Wild Pass" this summer for my family. Do you know how they treat service animals?

[@Zachus]

as long as they are license service animals, you can show proof all airlines respect this, and allow this to come on with a few exceptions. is it a dog or cat?

[@allisonwestbrook1553]

What is Frontier's procedure for providing COVID test results for returning to USA? Do you do it online on their website when checking into your flight or do you have to do it at the airport?

[@Zachus]

You have to secure your own testing and then just show proof that you took the test within 24hrs of your flight leaving. So if you leave at 12pm, you have to have a test taken at 12pm the previous day or later. Rapid test are accepted so you can take some with you or most hotels internationally will set you up.

[@Zachus]

Frontier doesn't fly much internationally, where are you going?

[@casseamoore4876]

@@Zachus Mexico

[@Heidiluxvlogs]

We are flying from california to Las Vegas do they require COVID test or vaccines?

[@Zachus]

No. You never needed anything to fly domestic except Hawaii and PR but even they have dropped this. You only still need a negative test if coming back into the USA internationally and when flying to some countries but most hand removed this such as Ireland, UK, Dubai, etc. Mexico never had required one which is why it's become popular to vacation there. The only thing for domestic travel is wearing a mask on a plane but this should be removed by April 19th

No I fly with mine all the time and there are several luggage providers that still have this option when you buy. I don't pull mine out. I leave it in the bag. I also have one in my backpack.

[@larailfan1714]

I judge airlines by inflight menus, and Frontier has one of the best. The one thing I don’t like about them is the bag charges.

[@Zachus]

Inflight menus?? Like to buy food or entertainment?

[@larailfan1714]

Food and beverage By the way, I have never flown Frontier, but I sure will someday.

[@Zachus]

LOL You've never flown them but think they are the best 😂😂 There have been many times on all airlines that it can be up to an hour before they go around and let you order from the menu and many times due to circumstances never do service at all. PLUS you will pay WAY more for those items than you would at the store at the airport. My tips are REAL! Control your own journey by getting your drink and food before you get on the plane.

[@larailfan1714]

Thanks for the advice, but I think it’s the best based off their online menu. They have so many things that sound good, even if you pay.

i realized after a purchased my round trip ticket that Froniter charges $23 per leg ($92 total) to book the ticket online , i read online that you can buy the ticket at the airport and not pay the fee . have you ever done that?

[@Zachus]

I've never heard of this. In fact with budget carriers like Frontier, Spirit, Allegiant, all charge you more if you interact with a person or wait to the last minute at the airport. It's always cheaper to book online or through their app. Did you select a seat or carry-on or checked bag, something other than the round trip ticket? That's probably the extra fee you are seeing. You should have detailed receipt in your email, app and online account.

[@SlavGuns]

Yes it’s true. Do it all the time.

You won me at conservative 👍🏼 subscribed

[@heatheromalley1590]

just booked for my daughter. Now, the first checked bag is $50 but is just 40 pounds. (it says this is new on their website) Looking back now, I booked two one ways due to her departing and landing into two different airports (philly and Trenton to Ft Myers etc). However, if I would have booked it multi ticket or multi direction, could I have just purchased one bundle for the whole reservation? If so, ugh! I paid the $54 for each one way for one checked bag. So, if $155 could have covered both directions, they just don't explain that well online.

[@Zachus]

Yep this is where they get you. They change size limit often. Bundles are per way so it wouldn't hasn't helped you I don't believe. I've never booked one ways with them though. It's like math class...lol you have to grab a calculator and run through each scenario all the way to the end to know which is the best option. this is why most of the time the bigger airlines like American Delta United are same price or just a little higher or even a little less sometimes I have to add all the fees and stuff together

[@willmarshall8574]

Is it true you can carry on a bookbag that is not categorized as a carry-on?

Flew with Frontier 3x. Progressively worse. If you don’t mind never get to go on the flight you actually booked, if you don’t mind them switching your flight time to 6 a.m. without your permission, if you don’t mind repeated delays, one that makes you miss your connecting flight, if you didn’t mind being stranded in an airport for 24 hrs with young children and you can’t get your luggage--then use Frontier. It’s not a discount if you don’t actually get what you paid for!

[@podunkcitizen2562]

I went Boston-Las Vegas May '22. Spirit was easy. I had a good size backpack and a 20" suitcase..The backpack went under seat, the suitcase I carried on. I paid for carry on at airport, maybe slightly more. I put my bags in the boxes to check myself. Nobody made me check to get on the plane, I don't know how they even know I paid for carry on.

[@Zachus]

Its on your boarding pass. When they scan it, if you don't have a carry on it will alert them to check and they will ding you to pay at the gate is more as well. I've seen them do this to people trying to sneak it by. For sure cheaper to add carry on, checked, etc. in the app before you get to the airport. Hope you had an awesome flight and time in Vegas

[@podunkcitizen2562]

@@Zachus Thanks, I'm not sure but I think I paid for the carry on after getting my boarding pass because they told me it was cheaper on the app. then at the ticket counter. In April this year I'm going on Frontier and I'm a little nervous because it seems their policy is stricter and allowed bag sizes are a little smaller.

[@Zachus]

Unless it's something crazy like a maxed-out 45L backpack as a personal item, you should be fine. I fly pretty loaded and if you pay for carry on they let you on first and love you. I think you'll be good to go. Not sure about the counter but if you buy carry on in the app you get bumped to priority boarding.

[@markarneson2009]

The biggest problem with Budget Airlines is Unless you live Near the Hub (with Frontier it's Denver) Usually there is less then one flight per day going to and returning from your destination. If the cancel your flight and you have to get home that $39 ticket one way could turn into $600 because now you have to book on another Airline.

Very True! And some of them only fly to certain cities 2 times a week so if you miss your flight you have to book on another airline.

Did frontier airlines can have pet cabin like take my guinea pig

[@msmarcy27]

Prices have changed to $62 for 35 lbs a carry on.

[@Zachus]

Prices change based on routes, time of year, dates, etc...

I have flown with Frontier and Alligient quite a bit. Theyre good for a weekend trip. I only bring the allowable free personal item, and stuff everything I need into that one small bag. I do choose my seat tho. I flew from EWR to TYS on Alligient couple months back and the flight with my chosen seats and some snacks on the plane was $130 round trip. Totally worth it! However, if you have to check bags and bring carryons with the fees, I dont think a budget airline is worth it (at least where I live).

[@Zachus]

oh for sure without a doubt. I prefer Allegiant over Frontier though. Whatever is cheaper though is what you have to go with.

[@debraprice8168]

Just flew and ck in luggage wt now 40 lbs

[@theproductofthebay]

Conservative Californian 🙋🏼‍♀️ appreciate your tips. Was curious why Frontier had a bad rep. Will be flying from SFO to PHX in a few and saw really good prices for frontier...very helpful. Definitely appreciate it.

[@lordbaldski9455]

Does frontier airlines require you to be fully vaccinated ( covid) to fly with them?

[@Zachus]

No Airline in the world to my knowledge requires you to be vaccinated to fly. You no longer have to wear mask on most airlines in the world and none in the USA. You will need a Negative COVID Test currently to come back to the US within 24 hours, can be a rapid test.

Spirit -frontier they are brother do not have big expectation for what you pay

[@kerbydelosreyes8695]

FRONTIER CSR HERE: carry on is expensive than checked bags.

[@Zachus]

I just prefer to not have to wait to collect check-in. Thank you

[@pedrotinaco1]

I see that a checked bag from SFO to LAS is $56, and a carry-on is $61

[@sdemonte90]

Can you bring outside snacks and a water bottle in your personal bag on frontier?

[@Zachus]

Snacks yes, and yes to a water bottle but had to be empty. You can fill itt up with water you buy or water fountain after security.

[@sdemonte90]

@@Zachus oh thanks for responding!! I appreciate it!! What other drinks besides water could the kids bring? I didn't flying was like this it's very choosey lol THANKS for your help!!

[@Zachus]

You can't bring any liquids through security. You'll have to buy those in a store after security. The only liquid they allow us breast milk. You have to identify it immediately upon arriving to TSA when they ask for your boarding pass and ID that is when you would notify them, most people freeze this to help transport it properly through security, and on the plane

[@MusicalJeanAz]

It wasn't a bad experience for the most part. The worst part was kinda our fault but a simple mistake. We purchased the tickets then went to the website a few days later to pay for the luggage. My husband accidently clicked on cancel flight. NO NO NO. Right away he called customer service to hopefully get the cancelation reversed. He said it was canceled by mistake but whoever he talked to said it couldn't be fixed. He talked to several others and nothing doing. We are out $600. Several days later we rebooked on the same flight because it was the best price. So we paid twice for the same flight. Kinda of sickening. Don 't plan on using Frontier again. The seats where really cheap and uncomfortable and the leg room was the worst. The flight attendant's were very nice.

[@Zachus]

So so sorry to hear this. Oh that makes me sick!

[@MusicalJeanAz]

@@Zachus sickening is about right. You'd think they'd be a little more understanding.

[@weddings7758]

A. Travel Credit can be given to because of the mistake to be used within 3 months

[@travelmanMN]

Would anyone book a 400 dollar trip from the US to Cancun roundtrip with Frontier?

[@Zachus]

Not me LOL. You can get some great deals to Cancun if you look around some...

[@JeffCD77]

That's way expensive! I just booked Boston to Cancun RT on Delta for $303. I'd continue your search if you can. Prices can literally change every few minutes.

[@iyanaimani4878]

I just booked my flight for later today and had no lead. Can I use a book bag for the “ free personal item”??

[@Zachus]

Yeah I take my bookbag all the time

[@Vibesfrome2you]

Will they charge me for a backpack for a personal item

[@Zachus]

No you are allowed a backpack with any ticket

[@bmva8263]

You forgot one thing is they cancel on you last second lol 😂

[@Zachus]

Yeah sucks

[@matthowell8985]

I have a Frontier credit card and I swear I hate frontier. The baggage fees are more expensive than a seat. We had enough miles for round trip anywhere they fly, are free tickets end up costing us $400 per person. The advertise locations that they're actually not flying to anymore. To make matters worse if you need to get a hold of them you have to message them through WhatsApp 🤣. I wish I was kidding.

[@chanthana7694]

My $79 one way ticket just turned to $113 (personal item with no extra bag) because I had to pick a seat 😭. Had I known that I would have gone with Southwest, which is not that much more, and they allowed first 2 bags free! It shouldn't be an option. Back in the old day, I would only pay for the seat if I want to upgrade. Who would buy a plan ticket without seat? It's notblike we have the ootion to stand throughout the entire flight. I just wish they disclosed the price upfront so that I know what I'm looking at. I guess the plus side is that there's no connection flight for my trip.

[@Zachus]

Yep. Normally you can find a ticket with one of the big carriers for the same price. Unless, you just buy the tickets and nothing else... No bags, no seats...

[@elunico13]

Only 40 lbs per bag now.

[@jenb.1889]

Glad I watched this before booking Frontier. 😂😂😂 Finally someone who isn’t afraid to speak out on the foolishness. You’re absolutely right. It doesn’t make sense. Smh. Anyway, new sub here. Great video. Keep up the great work.

The weight limit has changed since it’s 40lbs now

Best advice fly Southwest instead

[@Tricia-yf1ld]

They do not have enough non-stops on southwest

Email me 5x or more time day. I can’t even unsubscribe and it is very annoying. Let me know how to unsubscribe the Frontiers airline please

Yeah they spam you. Its not easy but keep trying and marking it as spam

My dude great energy but it took a WHOLE MIN to get into the video. I was going at 3x speed, and I skipped ahead and it still took a while to get to the actual video

[@Zachus]

Agreed working on this. Thanks for watching

[@roxannemcconn4204]

But it’s just as expensive at those little stores to get drinks

[@Zachus]

But you are in control. There are times when they will not sale them or serve and then what? My tips are from years of flying. Roll the dice but eventually you'll get caught wishing you had brought your own on the plane...

[@maximusg88]

Flying is so expensive in the US

I'm going to Vegas and I dnt care about where I'm gonna be seated for an hour trip hehehe

The crew from Miami to LAS was the worst from the idiot at the counter that didn’t give me a blue tag for my stroller that you need a blue tag for a stroller to the woman that was next to him that took 3 min writing the blue ticket at Miami frontier counter why don’t they let you fill it out yourself ?!?! to the flight attendants that were not helpful and ignored our area after multiple request. Never again will I fly frontier don’t want to deal with the extra bs like the extra bag charges

Is there a place to charge your phone ?

[@Zachus]

No, most domestic low budget airlines don't offer this. Even other airlines are hit or miss unless you go to First or Business. I recommend using Away carry on (see video and link below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2TMpn2rrq2Lp80) which comes with a battery pack to charge your phone. I never leave home without it.
