    The experience was horrible. My flight from Syracuse to Orlando was canceled with the excuse of the weather however the rest of the airlines there were working. I ended up paying $265 for a last minute ticket with Delta. Two weeks ago I also had a bad experience with Frontier. A flight from San Juan to Orlando with connection in Atlanta was delayed for three hours in San Juan and four hours and a half in Atlanta. Frontier just keep giving excuses to avoid giving compensation and vouchers for their horrible service. Please don’t use this airline. At the end you will be paying more.

    After writing my review for the bad experience back in January and putting a claim through Consumer Affairs they sent me an email stating I will get a refund for the flight they cancelled. A week later I did get a check with the total amount of our expenses for the flight we had to book on another airline which was way more expensive than the original price with them. Thank you Frontier and Consumer Affairs. Am happy with the outcome.

    Original Review: Jan. 17, 2022

    They cancelled our flight and sent an email giving instructions on how to proceed in order to flight with another airline for which they told us to pay and will refund the cost of the tickets by mailing a check in 2 weeks, so I have been calling customer service without success. They keep me on the phone for more than 30 minutes every time (I called several times) and hung up. The only time I was lucky enough to talk to a representative she pretended to be checking my information, keep me on the phone waiting and ended up hanging up on me again. This is the worst company to flight with. If you are making plans check their social media. That way you will see all the complaints because it seems reviews in Google aren't accurate.

    Bought a membership to Frontier's Discount Den and a flight. Cancelled both within 8 hours and the flight cancellation was honored but the Discount Den membership was not cancelled. Fraudulent because the Discount Den cancel membership button even asked for confirmation. We're out the $99, the website only shows "Reactivate Membership" and after a heated argument with customer support supervisors, they now say that cancellation is not allowed.

    After flight canceled then got the lady two seats on a later flight, that flight was delayed and delayed again. Finally boarded and after 45 minutes of waiting on the tarmac my son's 22 year old girlfriend got up and went to use the bathroom. When she came out the stewardess said she looked pale and asked if she needed a paramedic. She said "WHAT? No!" Side stepped the stewardess and sat back down in her row 8 seat. Within minutes a customer service person entered the plane and instructed my son AND his girlfriend to gather their belongings as the were being involuntarily removed from the flight because a mask wearing young girl looked pale in the stewardess 'opinion.

    The girlfriend has a very fair complexion, blonde hair, see thru eyebrows, burns doesn't tan..etc. I'm guessing the last two seats.. in row 8 weren't really available at all..Frontier overbooked. It was mortifying for my son and his girlfriend and should never have happened. "911 what's your emergency?" "Call a paramedic. The stewardess thinks she looks pale!"

    We flew NYC to Cancun and back with Frontier. Dec 2021/Jan2022. Both legs were late by more than 2 hours. NYC to Cancun, the "ground staff" took 2 hours to load the luggage. Cancun to NYC, the "ground staff" was understaffed and took 2 hours to check people into the flight, imagine what a 2 hour long queue for 4 flights look like in Cancun airport!

    Real story (according to one of the flight hostesses) is that this happens every day on these flights. Frontier just hires the lowest cost baggage handling and ticketing contractors and pushes the wait time onto the passenger discomfort, knowing that they can abuse passengers and cut cost. In fact the company even abuses its staff. The crew "clocked-out" during the flight, which apparently happens all the time. Meaning that the Frontier flights are so delayed that while the plane is in the air the crew actually reach their maximum time of being allowed to work during flights and they simply have to stop working. The crew are in this case actually the first people to get off the flight.

    This airline should not be allowed to continue operating like this. They abuse passengers, staff, and safety for profit. Trust that people take this into account when they book. I certainly will never get into their planes again. Not worth the risk. Imagine what Frontier Airlines does on cutting maintenance costs. The planes will simply become more and more unsafe until...

    My family flew Frontier from Chicago to Las Vegas during the holidays. Then the wave of Omicron swept the nation and while that is totally acceptable to cancel a flight for that reason, what the airline did next was not acceptable. After notifying us of the cancelation they did not honor the fine print on their ticket/website. They did not help us to find another flight, they did not help us with refunds either. We were stranded and forced to find flights on other airlines, lodging, food and lost 2 days wages. It has been a week since and NO REFUNDS! Frontier is a billion dollar company and a few hundred dollars in a refund should not be taking this long. Please select another airline in your future - American is an excellent choice with an app that has free movies to watch during your flight plus free drinks, nuts and cookies.

    Booked a trip through Expedia for tickets to a Frontier Flight and I ended up getting covid. Keep in mind I bought insurance for this purpose. Because I bought economy tickets they gave me a credit to use in 3 months and charged me a fee of $49. For other words, if I don’t fly with them I lose all my money. Not flying with them ever again. Losing all my money but I refuse to fly with them. Too bad since I take a lot of trips to see my in-laws. They will never receive a dime from me ever again.

    Very Disappointed with the options available for military service members. I was unable to check in online because I had one carry on bag. When I tried to do this online, I could not opt for military free carry on bag that I read Frontier offered. I am a student and finished my final and came to the airport immediately, 30 minutes early. There were NO attendants at the counter to help me. Additionally, I was unable to reach anyone by phone. This was going to be my first time flying frontier to go home to see my family for the holidays. I had quite possibly the worst experience in an airport that day and I felt as though Frontier airlines does not care, as no one reached out to even inform me that I missed the flight. Customer service was not helpful at all in attempts to resolve the experience.

    Avoid Frontier Airlines by all means. I flew from New York LGA to Tampa yesterday. Flight attendant was very rude. The check in was a mess, the wait to collect luggage was over an hour. Moreover, my checked in Luggage was damaged, there was no agent to claim. Tried to follow the steps to fill the form online, that the agent told after over an hour wait, no way to get to the form to submit the claim for compensation. It end up with "This site cannot be reached" no matter what browser I used. Called again, and after an hour wait, the web support agent all she told me try different browsers.

    I recently flew Frontier Airlines from Baltimore to Seattle and back. The experience was absolutely terrible for the following reasons:

    1. The ticket price does not include even one piece of baggage so you have to pay extra excessive fees for checked and carryon luggage.
    2. The seating is terrible and you have to pay a fee for a couple of extra inches of leg room.
    3. The air system was terrible and it felt like you were taking a sauna. Frontier has relatively new planes and their air circulation systems should provide comfortable cabins.
    4. Nothing is included. Even a diet coke costs about 4 dollars. A glass of wine is $9.
    5. No internet.
    6. Seats are uncomfortable.

    7. Full flights are similar to traveling in a cattle car on the way to market.

    The lesson learned is that the bare bones operation called Frontier is not worth the pain nor is getting nickel and dimed at every stage a pleasant experience. In the future, I will pay more to receive basic services. The Frontier business model is unsustainable.

    I called to inquire about a price rebate as fares had dropped considerably. Was told not possible but could be refunded, then told could not be refunded as is out of 24 hour booking window. I asked to speak with manager, manager unable to help, was told her manager would contact me in 24-48 hours. I explicitly stated no changes were to be made to my tickets which they agreed. I received a voicemail on Thanksgiving night from Frontier saying they could help me, and my refund was 1887. I went online, they canceled my flight without speaking to me, charged me a cancellation fee. I’ve called them 3x to try to get the flight reinstate which they will not do. I can rebook but it will cost me an additional 600 dollars. As soon as I ask the manager if it is their policy to make changes while charging a fee without speaking to the customer first, they hang up on me.

    This is the absolute worst airline I have ever had the misfortune of using. We flew from MI to WA and it was a horrible experience. First the extremely rude person at the ticket counter informed me that my small carry on bag was not paid for. I told her it fits in overhead bin. She said, "Well since you didn’t pay for that at time of booking you now owe $65. "I was taken aback because every time I have ever flown this same small bag was not an issue. She was so rude. We ended up having to come up with $135 for my husband and I to board the plane with 2 small bags. She threatened my husband and I that if we were upset we may be kicked out of the airport. Then the flight was so uncomfortable with no movement seats, a few screaming kids and not even a small glass of water. The water was $3.25 for a bottle. The people were rude and I just had the worst flight ever. Do not choose this airline.

    It gets worse. One of the staff members for Frontier was on flight was extremely sick. The attendant was breaking out from the very start as I saw him sweating. This same attendant then had an emergency oxygen tank rushed to him and the flight asked if there was a nurse or doctor on plane. You would think a flight carrier that was so aggressive about a mask policy would screen their own employees better. This attendant made all of our lives at risk according to cdc guidelines and the carriers guidelines. He kept his mask off the whole flight. The medical staff that rushed on the plane when landing all had their masks improper with the nose not covered. The flight attendant that treated my wife and newborn baby like criminals had 0 to say to the medical staff that exposed us to not having their masks on.

    Updated on 12/19/2021: Frontier Airlines lost our luggage and it was never found. Only reimbursed us HALF of the $2000 it will cost to replace the items THEY lost. When I encouraged others with similar complaints on social media to also file complaints with the Colorado Attorney General and FAA they blocked me from commenting and deleted all my comments. They are clearly trying to hide their dishonest conduct.

    Original Review: We flew from Charlotte to Denver on Thursday for a quick trip to see my parents. My checked bag did not arrive with us. It is now the following Monday night and we are back in Denver. I still have not received my bag nor does anyone with the airline know where it is. We have already spent $500 replacing some items but I expect it to cost us at least another $1000 given we have not replaced the expensive items. They keep giving me the run around, are of little help when I actually can get ahold of someone and have yet to refund any of my money.

    I'm not a complainer, but this experience I got, I do not wish upon anyone. Therefore, I'm sharing the story. Both ways to and from West Palm Beach horrible experience with Frontier. Delay from Trenton NJ to West Palm Beach FL was 5 hours (meaning we spent 7 hours at the Trenton Airport). Due to this delay, I couldn't get the rental car since everything was closed at the Florida Airport (my money lost already). Needed to take Uber and come back next day taking Uber again (additional money) to rent the car. One day of my vacation lost as well. On the way back they cancelled our flight. I called them only to be confirmed by them 3 times that this fight is unfortunately cancelled and they can offer me the flight in 4 days (haha what a good joke). Of course, I could not wait 4 days and who would pay for that? Instead of planned dinner I had to sit on the phone and then look for possible way out from FL.

    I booked Spirit 4 tickets for all my travelers. When checking confirmation email I saw Frontier's email stating to forget about cancellation since their flight is on time. Spirit Airlines could not refund me the money of course (not to mention all that time back and forth on the phone). So, I used the Frontier flight since it was to my destination and few hours earlier, unlike Spirit Airline which I was forced to purchase but also it was going to Atlantic City from where the Uber would cost me additional money.

    I thought it will be simple for Frontier to refund me that money spent DUE TO THEIR ERROR. However, quickly I've learn that they are not willing to refund me any money since it's different airline. (? What? Isn't that laughable?)

    We booked a roundtrip flight from Buffalo, NY to Myrtle Beach, SC in July 2021 via Orbitz. Confirmed via email. Received many emails from Frontier regarding this trip. Successfully took the first flight in Sept 2021 without issue and got to Myrtle Beach. The day before we were leaving I attempted to check in for the return flight and was not able to with a message advising to contact the airline. I searched online and eventually found a number to call, and after an extensive hold time I spoke to someone who advised that my flight had been canceled and I wasn't notified because they didn't have my email address. Again, I have received many emails from frontier regarding this trip.

    I asked to speak to a supervisor who was extremely curt with me and advised that the flight was canceled because not enough people booked it. He advised that there was no recourse and no way for me to get home unless I wanted to go to Iceland. He advised they don't rebook with other airlines. Frontier flew me to myrtle beach, canceled my flight without notice, and had no option for me to get home and no remorse. I was forced to scramble and book a United flight (with a layover with a toddler) for double what the entire trip was supposed to cost me. Frontier advised they were sorry for the inconveniences and had nothing else to offer me.

    VERY TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!! DO NOT FLY FRONTIER!!! We boarded Frontier flight 242 on 9/3/2021 from Denver to Houston and they kept us in the plane for over 2 hours because they were servicing the plane. To eventually ask us to deplane and enter a different plane. After we entered the second plane and they closed the cabin ready to depart, they started servicing the second plane for over 1 hour again before we eventually departed. We were supposed to get to Houston by 11 AM but never got there until after 4 PM. This is so terrible and the flight attendants were all rude saying we should feel free to find another flight if we like but they won’t be bringing out our checked bag and if we depart the plane we cannot be allowed back in.

    Called their customer service line and even spoke to their management and they are refusing to refund the ticket saying as long as the plane has boarded, no refund can be issued. They are instead sending a $25 voucher. The rudeness and lack of customer concern is disheartening. This is customer bullying. #FrontierAirlineBulliesCustomers.

    On Friday 20 Aug 21, I flew with Frontier Airlines from ELP to LAS. We were suppose to depart at 10:05pm on Friday, arriving into LAS on/around 10:30 pm. Unfortunately, we didn't even start boarding till about 10:15 pm and departed around 10:40 pm. We arrived into LAS around 11:05 pm. This where the experience got even worse! The flight attendant advised our baggage pick up would be at carrousel 23 (He never mentioned we should find our way to Terminal 3, instead most of us on the flight arrived at Terminal 1 baggage claim).

    Well when I finally managed to find my way to Terminal 3 baggage claim area, our bags were still not anywhere to be found. It would be another 30 minutes (over an hour after arriving) before our bags were at the baggage carrousel. The Frontier baggage claims attendants could not advise us how much longer until the bags would arrive. Bottom Line: The flight attendant should have advised us we needed to go to the terminal 3 baggage claim area. There should be a better/faster way to get our bags to the baggage claim area!

    Never have I been so disrespected by an airline. I booked last minute with Frontier after having a Spirit Airlines flight cancel on me. Frontier's front desk agents and phone operators have been rude and unhelpful. My flights with Frontier also became delayed and cancelled, resulting in delays at the airport running over 24 hours! I was informed that I would be receiving a refund and/or flight vouchers for the trouble I went through. However, it appears Frontier will no longer honor or follow through with any reconciliation originally promised. While the expense of the flight is only a couple hundred dollars and means nothing, I would expect to be treated better after being stranded at the airport for over 24 hours. Spirit at least apologized, refunded and provided flight vouchers as an apology for their cancelled flight. Frontier was a last minute booking, I now know to never fly Frontier again.

    Flying Frontier Airlines is like ordering raw oysters at Ruby Tuesday. You know it’s a bad idea but you’re just hoping to get lucky that one time that the oysters happen to be less than a week old. Unfortunately, chances are those oysters will make you irregular at best and send you to the doctor at worst. Frontier Airlines is the bottom of the airline travel barrel. Yes the price at first glance is cheaper than every other airline, however, once they charge you for every bag, carry on, WiFi, seat upgrade etc the price is only a tiny bit better. Where it really hurts is when you get stuck on the plane for over an hour while you watch Spirit Airlines planes take off before you. It makes you rethink your decision to save a few dollars to instead pay extra and enjoy the modern amenities of a power outlet/table tray bigger than the finger nail on your thumb.

    I was drawn to Frontier because of the cheap flights (I just need to get from point A to point B), but it ended up costing me more. On the way to our honeymoon, our flight was delayed 5 hours with no explanation. That wasn't ideal, but it happens. Coming back from our honeymoon, Frontier cancelled our flight when we got to the airport with no explanation. They offered an amount for other airlines that wouldn't cover the cost of any flight, so we had to take their option of putting us on another Frontier flight the next day that (problems with that are explained below). We told the Frontier rep that Frontier needed to give us a place to spend the night since they messed us up. They gave us a piece of paper that said we would be refunded up to $150 for a hotel if we submitted the hotel reservation info on their website. The only place within that range was a cheap motel, but we went for it so we'd have a place to sleep.

    I had a feeling that they would find some way to avoid keeping their promise and reimbursing us. Sure enough, we submitted everything they asked for online and didn't hear from them for a month. After contacting them, they finally responded and said we wouldn't be reimbursed because we didn't have that piece of paper (just plain text on white paper) they had given us 1 month ago. The paper, the rep, and the website said absolutely nothing about needing that piece of paper. They had record of the flight being cancelled, our flight being changed to the next day, and that they had the document on their computer. Just a ridiculous way to avoid reimbursing us for the problem they put us in.

    For the new flight, instead of the direct flight from Denver to Philly that we paid for, sent us all the way down to Florida for a layover before flying back up to Philly, costing us an entire extra day and requiring us to pay for overpriced food at the airport (Frontier said they wouldn't help with any of this). Other people on our plane talked about missing important meetings and weddings because of Frontier's frequent cancelations. The initial price of the flight might be cheaper, but you'll probably end up paying more. If your plans are totally flexible and you're fine with sleeping in the airport, you can take the risk. But if you have anything scheduled at your destination, go with another airline.

    This was the most uncomfortable, unprofessional, anxiety provoking flight I have ever taken. First of all, I did not realize it would be completely full. When I got my ticket and viewed my seat assignment, it showed a window next to my seat and looked like the middle seat would be empty. Then come to find out, I actually had the middle seat on both my flight from SLC as well as my flight from Denver to Seattle. My flight from Denver to Seattle is where most of my very negative experience occurred. I was in row 5, just behind first class. When I boarded, there was no room for my carry on in the overhead bin above my seat or the one closest to it.

    In order not to slow down the boarding process I took it back about 8 rows and put it in one back there and then fought my way back to my seat (which felt very uncomfortable), When I got back to my seat, I got the attention of one of the flight attendants and gave her a description of my bag and the bin it was in, and asked if she would see if there was room in a bin closer she could put it in so it would be easier to get it at the end of my flight. She said, "we can't guarantee there will be room for your carry on close to you", and she walked off while I was still trying to talk to her. When the flight was over, I could not bear to stay on to get my bag until everyone was off the plane, so I decided to exit the plane and wait until everyone was off and then go get my bag. I let the same attendant know on my way out and she said sternly "you can't exit the aircraft, you won't be allowed back on. You can sit here." And she pointed to the first row of seats.

    So I sat down and since I was just sitting there I mentioned I was surprised the plane was so full and that I thought they weren't filling the middle seats as many other airlines still weren't doing, and this same attendant said, "well we wouldn't survive if we did that." Then she said "you can go back a few rows at a time to try and get back to where your bag is". And I told her I was really uncomfortable with that, going against all the people trying to get off the plane and being in such close contact with so many and my concern about COVID. Under her breath but loud enough for me to hear she said "well you can just wait your turn then", Then I mentioned that I wouldn't think they would want me to do that since all the signs up until you get on the plane say to remain six feet apart. She said "well that obviously doesn't apply here, it would be impossible."

    I said it just makes me very uncomfortable with COVID to be on such a full flight and then to have it suggested that I try to maneuver so close to so many people at one time to retrieve my bag. At that point she looked at me with the most disgusted irritated look and said "well you could drive." I have been speechless very few times in my life, but I was at that moment. I will unfortunately never be able to forget this experience. I would think, especially during COVID when anxieties can be high, that your flight attendants are trained to deal with these situations. I am a frontline worker. I am a medical assistant and I work for MultiCare at an urgent care where I am face to face with highly possible cases of COVID all the time. If I treated my very concerned patients the way this woman treated me, and my manager found out about it, I would be fired immediately.

    I was absolutely shocked to have a flight attendant treat and talk to me this way. Upon finally leaving the plane I mentioned I would never fly Frontier again, and she said very sarcastically "that's fine." This behavior goes well beyond your flight attendant having a bad or off day. She is very clearly not cut out for this line of work, and at the very least, should never be promoted. There were two attendants that night. This one was petite with strawberry blonde hair possibly to her shoulders and very blue eyes. The other one had a bigger build and more platinum blonde hair. I would be happy to have someone contact me about this and even more to compensate me for such a traumatic experience. I haven't put any reviews online, but I definitely will if this is ignored. Nor will I consider ever flying Frontier again. Thank You for listening to my concerns.

    The scene at Las Vegas Airport on Sunday was actually jawdropping, people being delayed between 8-10 hours without any consideration or real answers, I purchased round trip tickets from Philadelphia to Las Vegas both overnight flights & nonstop, they were not cheap at over $600 before adding any luggage, The flight leaving out of Philadelphia Thursday night was delayed by about two hours but we did eventually get on the plane and make it into Las Vegas Friday morning 23 July 2021. Of course you do not get offered a glass of water or anything else unless you pay for it. Nevertheless we were flying home on Sunday night another overnight flight nonstop from Las Vegas to Philadelphia. On 25 July 2021 we arrived at the airport with plenty of time to spare and naturally we were given delays.

    A flight that was supposed to leave at 10:10 was delayed and delayed until finally it was near 3 AM when they put us on the airplane. Then we were told that they had a balance issue and Frontier Airlines needed 18 volunteers to get off the plane and they would receive a $1000 flying voucher and be given a room and put on the next plane. Well my cousin and I decided to volunteer. Long story short they ended up canceling the Flight. Then they decided that the volunteers were not getting their vouchers because they had to cancel the entire flight so even the volunteers were not going to get what they were promised even though they kept up their end of the bargain. Then frontier proceeded to try and reroute people who had paid expensively to fly nonstop to take flights that had five hour layovers.

    Now I had been at the airport for longer than 12 hours and to be honest I was a little irate because I could get no answers out of anyone. The condensed version of this is I did get a little loud because I was not having my questions answered. I absolutely did not threaten anyone or use any profane language call anybody names. None of the frontier workers. I just was very upset because they were not helping us and they lied to us. Basically they were giving us a $10 voucher for breakfast and we need to be happy about that after spending the entire night sitting in the airport being given the runaround. The supervisor Who is called in because everybody was going crazy that I had volunteered and even the people that eventually had been taken off the flight everybody was so upset so they called in the supervisor.

    Without a doubt she was the rudest, meanest, most inconsiderate, unhelpful person I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. Yes I was upset so she proceeded to call the airport police on me because I was irate she said. I’m a 53-year-old woman 5 foot two and 125 pounds. I pose no threat. However there were other people there using profane language that she did not call security on so the situation was diffused. I walked away to calm down and I just thought it was over now. I’m just gonna have to wait again until 10 o’clock at night to get on an airplane when to my surprise the supervisor decided that I was not allowed to board the plane because she did not like the way I acted so I was refused access to the flight that left at 7:30 AM that morning and had to wait to fly home at 10:30 that night. After all the inconveniences I was punished because she did not like my tone.

    Do not ever fly frontier. I will never again. Also my cousin was with me and her medication for her asthma was in her suitcase which was sent on to Philadelphia without us because she would not leave me stranded at the airport when the supervisor whose name was Britney refused to allow me access to the plane. Buyer beware. Frontier Airlines should not be allowed to be in business. Their employees do not care about you. They are rude, inconsiderate and if they do not like your tone they will refuse you access to a flight even after you’ve already been in the airport for 24 hours.

    Yes I’m very upset and I plan on pursuing this to see if there is some way Frontier Airlines will at least compensate because it is not fair that they do not have to explain to you why you’re not getting on your plane. They have no customer skills. They do not understand nor do they try or care if you are upset and if they do not like the way you act they will deny you access to the flight when it finally does. Life disgraceful. I have flew Too many times to count and I will never as long as I live ever take a plane from frontier airlines again. I neither will anybody else in my family.

Everyone there was well within time limits but Frontier just left everyone to their own devices. Terrible leadership and management...and then we come to the delays.

    Leaving Orlando, we were hours late but by that time we were grateful just to move. As of today, two weeks later, I/wife have been at the airport since 11 AM for a 2 PM departure. It is now 5 PM and no aircraft yet. I just wasted a full day in Costa Rica to wait for a Frontier flight. If my time is worth anything, they should be paying me for time lost. All told, I essentially dedicated 2 days of a 2 week trip to Costa Rica to Frontier Airlines' poor time management and leadership. Now that I think of it, they operate like a third world nation!

I rebooked a last minute flight with another airline and called Frontier customer service to get a refund being that the flight was delayed 2hrs and 30 thus far, they told me I couldn't get a refund, mind you, I was on hold for exactly 1hr 15. I will never fly with Frontier again. I will be emailing corporate in regards. They are no better than SPIRIT. I am truly disgusted in how they handled things. I guess it's no lie when they say you get what you pay for.

No one updated passengers as to why they were being delayed and there is NO customer service number that will answer your concerns! I finally had to call the airport and they didn't even know the plane was delayed! The website showed the plane had departed on time and didn't update until the next morning.

Day of flight, AFTER paying to check in baggage and getting an email not even 24 hours before the flight stating that the flight is scheduled for the correct day, get told flight is cancelled with no explanation why. No help with the bag that apparently gets to fly but the passenger doesn't and instead of anything helpful from customer service, after calling them for three hours, basically get told there's nothing anyone can do and that I have to wait to hear about what we can do about the baggage that's now in a completely different city. Listen, I get that you pay for what you get but DO NOT fall for this scam of a service. I've flown a lot in my life and this is the worst overall service experience I have ever dealt with.

    I wish I could give zero stars and just a bad review! On Jun 24, 2021, my wife and daughter were supposed to board flight 1259 from Newark to Florida. I dropped them off at the airport at 3:30 AM for a flight that was supposed to depart at 6:30 AM. They were told that there would be a 1 hour delay because their flight/gate was given to people going to Cancun instead (obviously the flight to Cancun cost more so they were a priority).

    After several more delays, and them sitting in the airport for almost 12 hours, they were told their flight was cancelled. They then had to get to another airline ASAP, since Frontier was not offering another, and pay $1600 (compared to the $200 they paid to Frontier) for new tickets, otherwise they would lose their hotel and car reservations (all pre-paid) since they would have missed the check-in times. After getting to Florida at almost 1 AM on June 25th, they had to take a taxi to the hotel and managed to keep their reservation, getting the last room they had, others that came in afterwards were not so lucky. A few hours later, they had to get back up and take another taxi to the car rental and get whatever they had available.

    Frontier then, refused to give them a refund. They had to send over the proof of original tickets, the new tickets, receipts for all expenses, and after all that harassment (when they know the flight was cancelled), they refunded the $200+ dollars. They gave them vouchers totaling $800, which they then refused to honor. I personally have had delays and cancellations with other airlines, but, they've always made good on the problems. Not this airline.

    If putting 0 stars was an option I would have selected it! Never in my life have I experienced such awful customer service and spitefulness from an airline crew before and that’s coming from someone that flies all the time with many airlines. On the 4th of July I was flying with my parents to Punta Cana for vacation. It was the only airline offering a nonstop flight at the time we needed. We checked in early. We bought our bags ahead of time. Everything was smooth sailing till we got to the gate. First of all, the staff by the gate are spiteful for no absolute reason. It’s like their only job is to give you a hard time on your vacation.

    While boarding, the staff didn’t give clear instructions to the passengers about the boarding zones and after waiting so much in line when I asked her she responded with a vulgar attitude for no reason and asked my family and I to go to a different longer line with the excuse that she is only checking in passengers with minors (and that wasn’t true because she had just boarded so many people without minors right in front of me and other witnesses boarding the plan). So my parents and I wanted to complain because simply it’s just not acceptable behavior and also seeing that my father is older and just came out of surgery, she had no respect and provided 0 assistance.

    Not only that but after we complained we were asked to leave the flight because apparently you can’t complain about poor customer service in Frontier, you must swallow the disrespect and be treated like a peasant just because the flight is cheaper. I am baffled by what happened and still am in complete shock, instead of taking constructive criticism which would definitely help their company and improve their overall performance they just kicked my family and I off the plane after they accosted us. They have ruined my vacation and wasted a lot of my money. I know the prices they offer are very catchy because they are cheaper compared to other airlines but don’t get fooled by that! If you want to be treated with normal human respect don’t fly frontier.

    Bottom line up front, Frontier Airlines, don’t fly with them. Ever. Why you ask? Well, short answer, they’re incompetent and their customer service is non-existent. I booked a flight to Denver. Non-stop from Tampa. Flight is cheap, Until you factor in having to pay for even a carry on. But okay. Flight is cancelled. Due to weather. Again, okay. After exiting the plane all the passengers are told they’ve been automatically rebooked on a flight departing the following day at 12:05 pm. Sucks, but hey, okay.

    Next morning, flight still not showing up on Frontier Airlines app so I can check in and print boarding pass. Call reservation number. Told that I’m booked on non-stop flight departing Tampa at 12:05. Arrive at airport, stand in long line at counter. Line doesn’t move for 30 minutes. Finally ask about line, told wrong line. Pointed out that would have been nice to know 30 minutes ago and a sign would have been nice. Response is they normally don’t have two lines. Myself and ten other people change lines. Finally get to counter. Told sorry, but the flight I thought I was booked on doesn’t exist. Woman at agent next to me upset because she is told the same thing. Agent acts like she is lying when she explains she was told she was booked on a 12:05 flight. I let them know I was told the exact same thing. Told no flights today unless I’m willing to drive to Orlando and take a flight there departing at 8:55pm.

    Ask if they will provide or reimburse for a shuttle to take me there. Told to contact customer service for that request. Given phone number for customer service. Call number provided and wait on hold for 40 minutes. Person who finally answers is not real customer service, eventually convince him to connect me to the real customer service. Ask for number. He won’t provide it, but he does connect me. Wait on hold another 30 minutes. Explain everything again. Transferred to ANOTHER customer unservice rep. Finally told they can only book the alternate flight, can’t pay to shuttle me to airport. Request full refund. Never flying Frontier again. Write reviews. Then end.

I was not able to take that 24 hour later flight due to my work schedule and needed to move my flight to the next week.

    My party of 12 arrived at MCO airport 2 hours before our flight departing for SYR, per usual and normal instructions. We printed out our baggage tags since we had 12 bags that needed to be checked and boarded. There was no attendant available at any “bag drop” so I went up and asked where we drop our bags that were ready to board. We were told “there is no bag drop and that we needed to wait in line.” The line stretched out to about 200 yards around 3 corners of the airport that we waited in for 1 hour and 45 minutes. While waiting in line, we overheard Frontier flight attendants talking with airport staff, “wow, I have never seen it this bad before.” We received no updates while in line about our departing flight.

    When it was our turn to finally drop off our bags, we were told “You missed your flight, it has already departed.” The only option that was given to us was a flight going into SYR on Thursday, 4/15. This was not a viable option at all since we are teachers and all are scheduled to work on Monday, while we have kids who have school. We were pushed aside for the next people in line who, talking with others, were in the same exact circumstance.

    Since Frontier Airlines offered no other viable options for us to get back to SYR or closer to NY, we were forced to look at other airlines. Because flights were so packed, we were forced to split into 2 groups and travel home later that night and into the next day. We could not find any flights from MCO to SYR so we were forced to travel to different airlines, which had us having to rent cars and hotel rooms. All receipts are being provided along with a video showing how long the line was still after we had gone through it. Again, no updates were provided to us while we were in line. If we were contacted to arrive at the airport sooner because of staff shortages or long lines, we certainly would have done this. But zero contact or updates from Frontier airlines were given to us until we were told our flight had departed without us.

    This is the worse experience I've ever had with an Airliner, Frontier has very poor policies towards their customers and are not clearly explained by customer service associates. I changed my flight reservation which had already been paid for including assigned seats and check on baggage. I paid the Change Reservation Charge which was pricey and was never explained properly about there being a non transferable assigned seat and luggage check in, so now I am having to pay additional fees for this. This policy for Frontier airlines is so ugly towards consumers, sad to say I will never book with Frontier.

    When our November 2020 flights kept being changed due to flights being cancelled, Frontier enticed us to take a $50 credit per person credit to take vouchers over a refund since we could no longer make these flights. These vouchers would take a week to be issued we were informed. So no booking new flights till then. Over 10 days passed by with no vouchers. We called customer service for assistance as we needed to book new flights sooner than later. The agent first informed us that he would request new credit, available in another week or two. This was no good for us and he finally issued a voucher. He did not explain to us that this was a 1 time use voucher and we then used a $580 credit for $139 in flights. Go to book the next flights, no more credit, $440 gone and Frontier says tough luck. Whether it was explained to us or not, that is their policy. Beware as they are more than happy to take advantage of their loyal customers.

    They are the absolute worst. As a frontline worker, I had to take an unexpected trip out of town and needed to change my flight that was over a month out to a different time on the same day! Flight was the same cost and they were trying to charge a ridiculous change fee. As a front-line worker I'm completely disgusted and disappointed. I'll be sure to tell everyone I know to never fly with them! Hope that little fee was worth thousands of dollars of future bookings.

    This is one of THE WORST companies to work with! During the Covid situation several of my flights had to be canceled. They gave me vouchers that were only good for a few months (which would have still been in the middle of Covid). They extend my expiration date if I would move the vouchers to miles so I did but it only extended it to October of 2020. I am trying to get flights booked for 2021 and booking is a nightmare. Because I am using miles now there are tons of blackout dates. I called to speak with a customer service rep. and was told there was nothing they can do. I finally got my flights booked and had to pay a miles redeeming fee, pay the taxes AGAIN and pay for baggage AGAIN which I paid taxes and bags the first time and can’t use miles for those costs. I will never use or recommend Frontier Airlines to anyone!!!

    This is a complaint about racism. Yes, its coming full circle now as I am a ** woman and am complaining how I was treated on your flight by ** flight attendants. After being delayed from an already long layover I was boarding flight 551out of DIA to SDX. As I walked on I said to the flight attendants that I was surprised we were flying out so late because of the fines the airline would have to pay in San Diego. She said something abrupt and really snotty about how they just got in from Orlando. I could tell she said something else but I was trying not to hold up the people behind me so I continued to my seat.

    When I got to my seat I took my coat off and put it in the overhead bin. The flight attendant walked over to me and told me I would have to hold it. I told her I was burning up from hot flashes and she didn't care at all. In fact she was also very rude about it. I asked why I would have to hold it and she said I could put it under my seat. So I said I would put it under my seat and put my bag in the bin. She said I couldn't because I didn't pay for it. I told her I paid for a checked bag. She said I wasn't special and everyone else had to hold their jacket too. I asked her if I could talk to another flight attendant and she said I shouldn't worry because they were coming to get me. Why? Hmmm, I had my jacket under my seat. I was sending out tweets to Frontier Airlines asking if that was safe? Attached is a picture of a very puffy Jacket trying to fit under my seat.

    So in comes a another Frontier employee asking me to follow him. As I leave a couple in the front row start clapping. Now it's confirmed that the first attendant didn't understand what I said. And I have to assume she has an anger against ** people. Because I was in row 23 A and not speaking loudly enough for the people up front to hear our conversation. On top of being removed from the flight they would not remove my bag which has cancer medication in it. I was mistreated by your crew members and I would like an apology. I have heard of these complaints and am frankly shocked that they are true. We did not have to fly Frontier and never will again. We mainly fly American Airlines but it was 3 times the price and didn't want to waste miles for a business trip.

    Travelers, beware! Flying or booking with Frontier may leave you stranded. October 12, 2020, I was left stranded at the Guadalajara, MX airport because Frontier had failed to confirm my reservation with Volaris, the subcontracted airline they had booked me on, even though I had received several confirmation emails prior to the day of travel. In essence, my ticket was no good.

    When I discovered that Volaris had no record of me, I called Frontier, asked how they were going to get me home, and was told repeatedly that all they would do is refund the cost of the original ticket. Thus, if I wanted to get home, I had to buy a ticket directly from Volaris on the same flight I had already paid for, and pay three times as much for it!

    I asked for reimbursement right then and was denied. I also called again once I got home, and emailed, and after dealing with 5 more people, was still refused reimbursement. A mistake is understandable, and can be forgiven, but to not take responsibility for it or do what is needed to rectify the situation is reprehensible. Stay away from Frontier!!!

    We all are tempted by a good deal but let me tell you.. After you add on the bag package to check your bag, plus extra for seat selection you’re already hitting pretty close to other airline prices. Here is where the issues I faced flying with them: When you pay and reserve a seat it doesn’t hold to check in. You have to re select and repay for your seat, they won’t credit or validate proof of payment with your receipt. This seems like straight up robbery since I already paid with proof and they wouldn’t honor that.

    Second their customer service IS NOT GOOD. I can’t stress this enough, they speak to you without concern or regard to what’s happening. I had a connecting flight from Denver to New York, I flew into Denver on Frontier from Seattle with little issue. When I got to Denver they wouldn’t let me get on the plane because they didn’t approve of my 3m, carbon filtered mask.

    The Frontier worker at the front said in order to board I need to purchase a new mask. When I tried asking why, and mentioned I had no issues flying here in my mask she said she doesn’t care and the rules are the rules. I go and buy a $14 disposable mask since that is the cheapest they had at the airport to board. I’m back in line after purchasing the new mask and wait for my turn to board the plane. I’ve already scanned my boarding pass and had my temp. taken from my first attempt.

    Once I make it up she already has a handful of people arguing with her that she’s telling to move to the side. I ask if I’m good to get on and her reply was “Now that you can listen and follow rules; go ahead and scan your pass.” Keep in mind I’ve been calm thus far and am beginning to get frustrated after the seat selection money scam, having to go buy a new mask, then having to deal with her being blatantly disrespectful. I respond saying “I wasn’t trying to break rules, and there were no issues flying before here with you”, I’m saying this as I pull up my boarding pass and scan it again.

    I begin walking into the plane when I feel her grab my arm and stop me. She really had the nerve to say “I’m not going to have you disrespect me and get on the plane”. I’m not a confrontational person so I just looked at her and then said “I hear you” and walked on and wrote this review before take off. After everything, layover, bags, seat selection, mask and attitude it would’ve been a way better experience overall to just spend the extra $100 - $150 on a different airline.

So they told me I had to pay for my backpack 'cause I can only bring in one personal item! Mind you $60 I can’t put my purse in my backpack 'cause then it won’t fit in their check slot. When I watch them let everyone one else go in with multiple items. But this is not the worse part!

    We are a party of 5 people, plenty rows empty, so we get to our seat to find another person seating so now we are 6 full row seats. When asked the flight attendant they can move you if you pay. When there are plenty rows available they decide to put another person in our row with so much room available in the plane! Like are you kidding me? And to top it off the gentleman had the sniffles. So if you ask me they have no concerns about COVID-19 and no safety to follow.

    Terrible service - they refused extension of airline credit during COVID. We have a credit of 253.00, and when asking for a credit, the advice from Frontier was to book another flight, then cancel that one to maintain the credit. They sent a 'voucher' via email, and I'm pretty sure the rep said to use within 10 days or 2 weeks. Checking back on the email, it said to use in 24-48 hrs, so I lost my money. All of their flights were more expensive than my credit and I didn't want to lose more. When talking to the rep, and a manager, they were totally unwilling to budge on 'policy'. Who wants to fly during COVID, and who wants the mess of booking and cancelling flights to maintain a credit? I'll never use Frontier.

    I booked a flight on 9/25 with Frontier. I used my Frontier credit and my credit card to pay the remaining balance. Once the charge posted to my credit card, I noticed I had been charged for the full flight amount. I then called and was on the phone for over two hours and had my call escalated, just to ask that my money be returned and my credit applied. I was told repeatedly that outside of the 24 hour window, there is no way for them to assist me. Why would I have called within the 24 hour window? I'm not cancelling a flight. I did not know I was overcharged until it posted to my credit card. I explained this ad nauseam. I recorded the conversation. I even asked the agent if she thought it seemed right to overcharge a customer and then refuse to return their money. To her credit she did admit that she did not think it was right.

    To be clear, this would be like Target overcharging you and then going 'oops, well all we can offer you is store credit.' Because that is all I was offered. So, they expect we to go from having almost $500 credit (that has already been misappropriated) to $1100 of credit. How is that helpful? How is that just? I don't want more 'credit' that you have already failed to apply to my current purchase. I called again this morning to see if maybe after a good night's sleep, I would get someone that could help. Alas, no. Same story.

    I have never, in dealing with any company, had such a poor resolution- which is essentially no resolution at all. Not to mention, when I had to wait an extra hour to talk to a supervisor and escalate my call, my thought was 'so you guys get a lot of complaints.' I mean, how many people need to escalate their calls to an airline on a Wednesday night? I am just going to tell as many people as I can, in as many ways as I can, until they make this right.

    I purchased 5 round trip tickets for my family vacation we planned back in Feb 2020. Trip was in April 2020. The trip was cancelled due to COVID. I was issued a voucher for a little over $1200 that I needed to use within 3 months. I don't know about everyone else but nothing had really changed by June 2020 so it made it almost impossible to book anything. So, I was TOLD in writing by FRONTIER to use the voucher to re-book ANY flight to use the voucher so it wouldn't expire and then I could just cancel it and re-book another flight when I was ready. So I did.

    Today, I cancelled the flight and was told because I voluntarily cancelled the flight I would not be able to get my voucher for the almost $300 in flights. On hold for over an hour trying to speak to someone... This is such a scam. I never canceled the trip to begin with. This was out of anyone's control. Most, if not all companies are giving full credit or allowing 24 months to use vouchers. This is horrible. Frontier - give people their money back!!

Even if I didn't have to fly during the 90 days, I was unable to book anything because of the uncertainty of the pandemic, especially because I would be traveling with my three children who are under the ages of 3. I tried calling Frontier for 2 months, yes 2 and NEVER got anyone on the phone. It kept telling me the lines were full and to try back. When I finally got someone on the call they advised me that my credit had expired and I should have tried to call them for an extension. That is hundreds of dollars just wasted.

    I tried calling back to speak with someone who would provide me with a credit and it was not helpful. I just wasted more hours of my life. I also tried emailing the corporate offices, complaints department and could not get anyone. I finally realized that if something happened to me or my family on one of these flights would be in trouble, no one would be available to help. Who would I report it to? Would anyone follow up?

We did get a full credit which was only good for 90 days. On April 24th I received an email offer to transfer my credit to 70,000 miles which would have been good for 6 months. I tried several times to accept the email offer and it would not go through. I had to call Frontier and they made me go to a different site to accept the offer and said they were having issues with the email offer. I spoke with them a couple times on separate occasions after I accepted the offer, which they walked me through, when I noticed the miles were not posting to my account. I was told they were working on it.

    Never was I advised there was an issue nor did I receive any notification stating there was an issue. With getting close to the 6th month period I went to book a flight and noticed I still have no miles. I called and was told the offer expired and there must have been an issue. They don't know what the issue was. After multiple days of calling and hours upon hours of me trying to get answers I was advised only the back office can offer me anything. They generously (NOT) offered me 48 hrs to book something. Is this a joke? This is unacceptable. Who can book a vacation in 48 hrs? This was not only my vacation but two others who have different schedules than me and I now have to try and coordinate something with them.

    Frontier Airlines. Frontier Airlines is known as a deeply discounted airline. We have flown Frontier a couple of times, and have found the customer service to be non-existent, the seats to be terribly uncomfortable, and very cramped. Our family flew across the country on an overnight flight, and the cabin crew were very loud in the back, laughing and carrying on all night. There was no consideration for the passengers. None of us (including 4 young children) were able to even doze at all, even though it was the middle of the night. At that time I swore that I would never put my family through that again. However, when the opportunity arrived to take my family across the country again, I stupidly relented when the flight prices were so cheap. I told myself I could endure because the price was low.

    Come COVID-19. Our plans were cancelled, the world was in a mess. We were out of jobs, and our event in Florida was cancelled. I cancelled my flight with Frontier, assured that I would get my more than $800 full credit for use within 90 days. 90 days? Who is going to be able to travel within 90 days? Travel restrictions abound, and I am a nurse. I am unable to leave the state or I will not be able to come back to work. So where am I going to go? I didn’t know what to do.

    Later, I got an email that stated in the subject line (exact words) ”Now use your travel credit to book through 9/12/21.” And the first thing in the body of the email was “Schedule extension! Now book through September 12, 2021.” There was nothing in the email to differentiate when the travel actually had to be booked vs. travel. I honestly thought it was a booking extension until Sept 12, 2021. I was relieved because I thought that Frontier was finally coming to its senses and following industry standards for issuing credits good for more than 90 DAYS. However, when I tried to use my credit today, I was denied on the basis that it had expired by nearly 3 months and I was just out of luck. I was on the phone for one hour and forty two minutes and the answer was always “policy is policy.”

    Frontier sent out a (deliberately?) misleading email and now is keeping my $800+. They have stolen my money. I did my due diligence to try to use this within the time frame that I thought was given to me. The fact that Frontier just DOES NOT CARE and has no qualms about stealing $800 from well-meaning customers, tells me that it is a company not worth dealing with ever again. BEWARE of this company. Their good prices are not worth the discomfort, bad service, and all- around dishonesty. Don’t be fooled as I was.

    I scheduled a non-stop morning arrival flight for October 2020. Since I booked, Frontier Airlines has changed my itinerary twice. Now, I have a layover and I'm scheduled to arrive at my destination at 11:52 pm. I am now losing a day of my trip. Because this is not the flight I paid for, I requested a refund. Other airlines are offering the itinerary I need, so I would like to take my business elsewhere. However, Frontier is refusing to return my money. Now I feel stuck with a service that is highly inconvenient. They are only offering a flight credit which is of no use to me as I do not intend to book with them again. Also, they are not offering any kind of consolation.

    Flying on Frontier was the worst airline experience we've ever had. My family purchased four tickets in February for a flight in July. We received multiple time changes for the flight, which was perfectly fine. However, when we showed up to check in the day of our flight, we were told that our flight was changed to the day before. So we missed our flight, and there was no possibility of a refund. We have never had an airline change the date of a booked flight before.

    The absolute worst part was that Frontier had four available seats for the exact same flight that we purchased in February, and we were forced to purchase these tickets for a second time (the exact same date and time that we originally purchased in February). We found this to be completely unacceptable and the ticketing representatives were not helpful in any way. Additionally, Frontier has the smallest, hardest, non-reclining, airplane seats we've ever experienced. We will never fly Frontier again.

    Frontier canceled my flight in March because of Covid. I went to book a flight in August, with the voucher they gave me. I tried to use the voucher and it didn't work. I called several time and they said the voucher expired. The first time I called the guy on the phone said that the card should have a credit on it. So I booked the flight and there was no credit. This will be the last time I fly Frontier and I'm canceling my credit card. Their customer service is just as bad... Very RUDE. Shame on you Frontier Airlines.

    Rating FRONTIER AIRLINES using a single star, Is one star too many. Reserved round trip flights from Colorado Springs, CO to Las Vegas, NV online. Upon completion, A separate E-mail popped up, Notifying me of a Baggage determination wasn't completed. Statement read "Pay now or more at the Gate". Succumbing to the "notice", A payment of $188 was made to ensure 2 "Checked Bags" were included on both flights.

    Days before my first flight, Was notified of a flight time change. The confirmed time frame was changed from a morning flight to a noon time departure. This caused a re-scheduling effort on my part. Arrived at Colorado Springs airport and consulted the FRONTIER AIRLINE ticket counter about a status change of my baggage. Was able to pack everything into a single bag and inquired about a refund, Having paid for 2 "Checked Bags". The staff at the ticket counter agreed, Within a week a sum of $42 was deposited into my bank account.

    Once again, Before my return flight to Colorado Springs, The flight was re-scheduled from a morning flight into a noon flight. Once more, An effort had to be made on my part, To conform to another FRONTIER AIRLINES change. Arriving at Las Vegas airport to check in, Requested the same refund as before. Travelling with 1 bag, Paid for 2 "Checked Bags". This time, Was given a voucher, With instructions to apply for refund upon arrival in Colorado Springs.

    After landing, Approached the same exact FRONTIER AIRLINES ticket counter. With voucher in hand and explaining the situation in full, Was denied any reimbursement. A statement of FRONTIER AIRLINES baggage fees are "Non Refundable" was given to me. Once again, re-stated the situation to avoid any misunderstanding. Stating that my initial refund was granted and acknowledged by the very same ticket counter. How could a "Non Refundable" policy be possible, If a FRONTIER AIRLINES refund had been delivered back into my checking account. The agent replied "OK" and stared at me. "Can you explain the policy now?" I inquired. "FRONTIER AIRLINES baggage fees are Non Refundable" She answered. Considered myself participating in a Twilight Zone episode at this point.

    Decided to pursue this issue, But at a higher level. Submitted a complaint with FRONTIER AIRLINES website. Described the events of the case, Mainly centered on the lack of consistency with the FRONTIER AIRLINES baggage policies. Within a week of back and forth E-mails, A written denial was given to my claim. Explanation was stated as "CARRY ON BAGGAGE FEES ARE NON REFUNDABLE". Realizing the error of their evaluation, Once again I restated my claim. "CARRY ON BAG FEES" are not in question, "CHECKED BAGGAGE FEES" that were reimbursed to me during my first flight, But denied on my second flight are the basis of my complaint. The responding E-mail rephrased the explanation of the denial being "Bag Fees are Non refundable". So much for establishing any trust within the populace of future flyers.

    In short, FRONTIER AIRLINES does not honor Written and Verbal agreements. Does not recognize the validity of receipts. Isn't in compliance with its own operating standards. Does display a misleading persona of credibility. Clouds issues with dialog to validate its own downfalls. Grievances appear to be adding up against this airline's Insolence, Integrity and Image. For those of us who compile a listing of airlines to avoid using...Feel free to add this airline to your list.

    Back in February I had booked a ticket for my niece to go see her father who is ill and whom she has not seen in quite some time. Travel was in May but was canceled due to Covid. I had airline credits with two other airline companies. Both of those companies have been very gracious and have extended the credits until 2022. Frontier Airlines gave me 60 days. My niece lives in a part of the country where Frontier Airlines flies out of frequently, however they do not fly frequently out of where I live. Trying to book with Frontier from my part of the country is exceedingly difficult. I asked for an extension and they gave me exactly one day. Now I’m out $214.40. While that does not seem like a lot of money to most, it’s a significant amount to me. I will never fly frontier airlines. The lack of compassion and decency during the time of COVID-19 is pathetic.

    I have never in my life dealt with a company like this. Absolutely awful customer service and experience. I had to cancel my spring break trip with my kids because of COVID and because I didn't randomly pick a date to reschedule a trip within 90 days they have robbed me of 410 dollars, all I asked was to have my credit so that I could pick a date into next year and the answer was a straight no. Didn't let me explain and was so rude.

    I cancelled a cruise and they gave me 18 months to use the credit with no problems. The government can bail out an airline company to keep them in business but they want to steal 410 dollars from a single mother who lost her job during COVID. I was treated like a dumb person when on the phone with customer service. I would never ever in a million years recommend this airline to anyone. Absolutely disgusting way to run a business and treat your paying customers. Shame on you Frontier.

    I find it unfortunate that Frontier has chosen this time to get greedy. I've been flying Frontier for years and their policies they have put forth during this pandemic are unacceptable. To expect people to use travel credits from cancelled flights within 90 days when we haven't a clue as to how things will transpire from one day to the next is crazy. I cancelled my summer vacation to California for obvious reasons. Today was my deadline to use my travel credit. I attempted to book the same trip next summer so as to not lose my credit, and they've hiked up most future prices (2021) so much, that I would owe an additional $700.00 to take the same trip. I booked a random trip to Vegas in January so as to not lose my credit, but after that trip (if I will be even able to take it), I will not fly Frontier again. Very disappointing.

    I had round trip tickets on Frontier to take my family of three on vacation in mid-March. Two days prior to my trip, Frontier informed me that they had canceled my return flight and had booked me on a flight six hours later. This would not allow me to meet other obligations, so I asked for a refund. They would only refund the return flight even though I had purchased both legs as a round trip. I reluctantly accepted a credit for just over one thousand dollars for both legs. The agent advised that I had to use the credit within 90 days. With the Covid 19 virus starting to take off, I expressed my concern with the time limit, but was assured that all I had to do was call customer service and they would easily extend the time on the credit for another 90 days.

    As the 90 day mark approached, I started calling customer service. Apparently, Frontier had cut back drastically on its call center staffing. I could not even get put on hold. I either got a busy signal, or a message stating that they were experiencing high call volume and to try later; at which point I was cut off. This went on for days. There was no venue on their website to extend my credit, only to use the credit for purchasing a new flight. After over a week of calling, I finally got through to the automated system and spent two hours on hold to talk to an agent. I explained that I needed to extend my credit and that I had been trying to get through for over a week. The agent acknowledged that it had been extremely difficult for people to get through on the phone and then proceeded to tell me that since I was now just past the 90 days that my credit was no longer valid and there was nothing he could do.

    I explained that I had followed the directions of the Frontier agent and the only reason that the 90 days had passed was that Frontier simply would not answer their phone. Not my fault. After arguing with me for about ten minutes, the agent put me on hold to talk to a supervisor. I was on hold for another two hours. The supervisor again acknowledged the phone issue but again stated that there was no remedy. When I said that I could not believe that a company like Frontier would blatantly take a credit away from a customer through no fault of his own and that it amounted to theft, the supervisor said that she was elevating my concern and connected me with a supervisor at the Frontier headquarters in Denver, CO.

    I thought that certainly, I would now have my issue taken care of by someone at the corporate office. I explained everything I had gone through, and that I was simply trying to get the credit reinstated or find another solution such as a refund, or even issuance of “miles” equivalent to the value of the credit. The supervisor stated that they all seemed like reasonable solutions, and that he was aware of the issues getting through to the call center, and that he had no doubt that the agent three months earlier had advised me that it would be no problem to call customer service and extend the time on the credit, and that I had done everything according to the directions I had received from Frontier representative.

    He then said that, unfortunately, the 90 day time period was firm and that my credit was gone. I was in disbelief. He then said that since my first interaction three months earlier, their policy had changed and that they no longer extended credit. He acknowledged that Frontier had not sent any notification to people who had credits and that maybe “they could have done a better job communicating”. Nonetheless, he had no remedy for my situation. After I recapped everything he had told me and expressed my opinion that Frontier was stealing over one thousand dollars from me, he agreed that I had a complete understanding of the circumstances and his unwillingness to provide a remedy. He then said, “So why are we still talking?”

    Suffice it to say that the conversation devolved into me telling him what I thought of him and of Frontier Airlines at which point he hung up on me. It is still beyond my comprehension how a representative at the national headquarters of a major company like Frontier Airlines could shamelessly and in such a condescending manner justify the theft of any amount of money from one of their customers. There is also the fact that they changed company policy to force people to use flight credits during a global pandemic or lose their money. This is a company that has completely lost its way and has no moral compass. Their business model now includes ripping off passengers.

    First, I’ve NEVER have had to pay so much for baggage in my whole flying experience- there and “back” for a total of approx. $350 and that’s not even with the check in to return to Memphis bc we were never able to get on the flight! We also will not get a refund on our $160 for the return check in bags. We spent more in bag prices than the tickets. I was also on the phone with customer service for 1 hour and 22 minutes- only about 20 mins spent on the phone bc I was on hold to talk to the supervisor due to the different checkin and carry on baggage prices- it said 6 dollars on the app and 41 dollars on the website.

    Every time I would try to pay on the app my total would change. After spending all of that time trying to get baggage fees taken care of (the reason why the prices were different was bc there was a “glitch” in the app and we had to pay the $41 through the website) we get to the check in stand and she says “oh unfortunately you are too late. Our next flight will go out Thursday Aug. 8th. Sorry.” We got there at 2:20 and our flight boarded at 3. We then said “well can we take our bags on the plane?” She said “no. Sorry”. Not to mention her eye rolling and and horrible attitude. We then asked if we can get a refund on the baggage fees bc that’s why we were behind on check in- again. She said no. We were then forced to pay $400 at American Airlines to leave that day. We could not wait 4 days. (Whom I will be using for the rest of my flying experience- 5/5 stars).

    As soon as we get to the checkin at American the attendant said “would you like to take all your bags on the plane as carry ons?” Because they were all carry ons- we just had two that were heavy. He OFFERED for us to take them on the plane. We ended up still checking in one bag which only costed 30 DOLLARS. Frontier it costed $110 just to check in two bags for departure. And another $74 for the carry ons JUST for departure. Not to mention the planes were extremely dated, dirty and gross. No outlets/USB to charge your phone either. I will always slander Frontier. The WORST airline ever. And I’ll we asked for in return was our baggage refund. They’re nothing but a con.

    Due to COVID 19 our flight was canceled by Frontier. They issued a "credit" but had to use in 90 days. Well shocker, they had so limited of flight selections once quarantine broke, almost impossible to use. Could find one flight for 2 of the 7 passengers. After the fact, told because 2 used their flight "credits" all other credits were forfeited (ie the 5 other travelers lost their flight to the tune of $1100). Almost impossible to get someone on the phone and then when we could talk to a human, told nothing further they could do. Thieves the whole lot of them.

    Not only they will change your flights time multiple times. The latest change I’ve got was a over 10 hours change (from my original booking). And as the worst airline they are, they won’t provide you any compensation or refund! They don’t even care AT ALL about you. If you try to contact them: good luck! Impossible via Instagram as they are limited the comments (wonder why?!) Emails are taking forever to be answer and if you call... Try 13 times without an answer. I tried again one more time and stayed over 2h30 on hold!!!! Yes you read it correctly!! When finally got someone, didn’t even care. They did not care and left me stranded. Never ever again, no matter how low the fair is, no matter the number of stops I need to have. NEVER again Frontier.

    Flight was fine, arrived back at Charlotte after fun/family trip to Denver to find that one of our checked bags was lost. Frontier has nobody at baggage claim to assist. We finally went back to ticket agent and was promptly told that I needed to go back downstairs because bags for our flight were on the carousel. I explained for a second time that our bag was not there at which point the ticket agent audibly sighed, rolled her eyes and said she was going to go check. Several minutes later I see this agent come back up the steps with a visibly upset young lady in tow who was also missing a checked bag. Mind you, at no time does this agent offer any type of apology, just immediately tells both of us that this isn’t a “big deal”.

    I’m speechless for a moment at the insensitivity and plain dismissive was of this representative. She proceeds to rip off a couple forms and hands them to my and this young lady and tells us to fill out this form. I’m tired from a long day of travel, I’m a bit stressed from this situation and I have a college degree...I have no clue what some of the information is being asked for on this form and the agent appears put out when I ask for clarification. We get this form filled out and the agent then takes the form and starts entering the information on the computer (why require me to fill out this form if you are only going to enter this information with me standing there).

    The agent then says that everything is done and we can leave. I ask for a case number or some copy of the report to which I am rebuffed. I insist and the agent reads back the information I recorded and asks if that is correct. I ask for a copy of the information entered into the computer, the answer I get is that she doesn’t know how to print a copy off. I’ve had it by this point and against better judgment we head to the parking lot to retrieve our car and head to our hotel for the night.

    The next morning we had our for our home in Charleston and on the way my wife decides to call and check on the status of our lost bag. She speaks with an agent after several attempts (the phone system at Frontier is amazingly bad). A report has been generated and we are assured that we will be receiving an email shortly. Sometime that afternoon after we have made it safely home, I receive an email stating that our bag was located at CLT and that we will be contacted shortly by a courier.

    One small problem, the name listed for the owner of the lost bag is not even close to my name... I guess the ticket agent from the night before wasn’t as competent as she insisted she was. The email from Frontier says that the case is now closed but provides a link to the courier service. I follow the link, verify our address, add my phone number and correct the name. Later I receive another email stating we will receive tracking information once the bag is picked up for delivery.

    The next morning (36 hours since the bag was first reported as missing) I receive an email from the courier stating that my bag was picked up at CLT and delivery was promised by 22:00. You can guess what happens next, no bag delivered. At apx 10:00 today, now 60+ hours since the bag reported missing, I check the tracking information which has not changed other than saying the bag was promised to be delivered by 22:00 yesterday. There is no phone number listed anywhere to call the courier but there is an email contact which I utilize inquiring about delivery.

    I receive a reply around noon stating that there is no ticket for bag pick up from Frontier and that I need to call Frontier. So I call Frontier again, am placed on another 20-30 minute hold after which the rep from Frontier says she is unable to reach anyone at the courier but hopefully I should hear from the courier “sometime” this afternoon and I “might” have my bag “soon”. I’m not holding my breath.

    My family and I had plans to travel to Mexico from St. Louis, MO on June 16, 2020 but we had to cancel because of the Coronavirus. We were told on three separate occasions that they would issue a refund. This was in March. When we still didn’t have the refund by May we called back and I sent an email. I received an email back stating that we would not be getting a refund but credit for future use and we had to rebook by June 10, 2020. We attempted several times to rebook by the June 10th deadline but every time we tried to apply the credit code provided it said that there was no available credit to use.

    We attempted to call Frontier Airlines numerous times throughout this week and almost every time we called we received a message that said the wait time is over 30 minutes long and to please call back later. The one time my husband got through he was hung up on. I sent another email on June 10, 2020 and was told that our credit expired June 10, 2020 at 2:45 am. I read several other similar complaints on Tripadvisor. Now my family and I are out over $1,000.00.

    On 5/27, we booked our hotels and booked our flights to Vegas using our Frontier credit code on the Frontier website. I printed out my itinerary and went about my business. On Monday, (five days later), I get on my frontier profile and it says there are no flights found. I called customer service and wait on the line for one hour and twenty-five minutes before I get someone. They tell me my reservation isn’t there and I have to rebook online, or they will charge me a fee!At this point I am irate! Why would my itinerary print with my flight info and it not go through? Instead of being charged for a rebooking fee, I go online and the non-stop flights in question are not even available. They were either cancelled or changed. Not just that but the only flights that are available are DOUBLE what I paid!

    I call Frontier again and this time wait on the line for one hour and forty-six minutes. The customer service representative tells me that a lot of people who received credits haven’t had success rebooking their flights and that she would waive the rebooking fee. Then proceeds to tell me that they won’t honor my itinerary or prices from my original booking. Four round trip tickets from Nashville to Vegas had originally costs $404.80, they were now going to charge me $828.00 (flights that were non-stop. The representative then put me on hold to talk to her superior. Once I was put on hold they hung up and didn’t call back. This would be my first experience flying Frontier and after all this mess, I promise you it will be my last! I’m hoping someone from their business will contact me and make this right as I’ve already put in a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

The other people I was flying with got their refund, but I didn't, so I called a month later.

Now I have received an email saying I do not get a refund at all and I had better reschedule the flight in 90 days or lose a credit they gave me. I don't understand the point of calling their customer service line if the things they say do not carry weight. Also, I never authorized anyone to "cancel" anything because I would have just waited this out until they cancelled the flight themselves.

In fact, if I had not cancelled my initial flights, I would be in Philadelphia right now. (If the original flight existed) I would show up at the airport on May 16 and discover my flight to Austin no longer existed. Frontier will not issue a refund in spite of the fact that I can no longer re-book the flight EVER. It doesn't do me any good to have the ability to re-book when the flights do not exist.

    FRONTIER AIRLINES refuses to take accountability for failure to inform customers in a timely manner that our flight was cancelled as well as failure to advise customers that they had an option “not to fly” and to be reimbursed. We experienced issues to and from our destinations. Several hours in delays, with confirmations that our flight would be en route soon, only for the airline to announce at closure of the airport that our flight was cancelled and to come back tomorrow. Agents disappeared after the announcement, with no further instruction. We had nowhere to sleep.

    We returned the next day and inquired about a refund. We were told it was not possible, followed by more delays with the new flight and offered a 10$ voucher for food and asked to be patient. In addition, while monitoring screens, during one of our flights, our gates changed several times without notice from FRONTIER AIRLINES, causing us to travel back and forth through the airport like cattle. One of us, a Senior with hearing aids, high cholesterol-requiring frequent washroom breaks, Cancer and who had a recent hip replacement - very difficult on him to navigate to and fro, not to mention we were travelling to say goodbye to his dying mother. When we asked about support for him FRONTIER AIRLINES client services exhibited irritation and unprofessional behaviour and no support was offered for our senior who also served in the Army - Very disappointing.

    A $100 voucher with a less than 4 months to expiry was offered (laughable), which I rejected thinking I would deal with this issue once I returned home, of which I did. This happened in September and October of 2019, with still no resolve to this day, FRONTIER AIRLINES email response was/is; “since I took the flight, there’s nothing we can do. We hope you will fly with us soon” disregarding my email completely, which you can imagine was lengthier and more detailed than this complaint. A refund, a proper voucher or perhaps even a little kindness and understanding would have served fruitful. I have travelled all over the world on a budget and otherwise. This was my first FRONTIER AIRLINES experience and I will advocate accordingly as this, at 43 years, was the most abhorrent travel experience and definitely my last with FRONTIER AIRLINES.

I felt a great sense of relief after their reassurance therefore during my call to Frontier after being placed on hold for almost 4 HOURS I was told by an extremely unfriendly representative that according to their records the flight was never canceled therefore I was not entitled to a refund.

    I attempted to explain to her that 4 Volaris Agents had assured me that the flight was absolutely canceled. She rudely made it appear as if I was being dishonest. The thought that an airline would be so unreliable and keep my money that I worked hard for just demonstrates the lack of credibility this Company has and the lack of professionalism they maintain.

    I booked 1/7/20 for $507.92. This was for 4 roundtrip tickets from Nashville to Orlando on March 27, returning April 4. My initial booking confirmation was -----. March 13, I received notification that my reservation was cancelled. I called Frontier and she told me to use that reservation code as a credit to rebook because she didn't know why it would have cancelled, which I did. I booked and received notification within 24 hours that my reservation was cancelled a couple other times (reservation codes -----, -----, and -----). The last time I rebooked (same flights, dates and passengers each time), my confirmation was -----. I have not received notification from Frontier, but online and via app, as of today, this reservation is now no longer active as well. I do not wish to rebook with all this COVID-19 mess and Orlando being shut down now too. I am just seeking my full refund of the $507.92.

    I spent 4 hours on the phone waiting and then finally spoke with a representative tonight. During my conversation tonight, the lady informed me that because I INQUIRED about cancellations, that is why I was automatically cancelled each time. Though my inquiry was just that, an inquiry...with questions. I have never heard of an airline or any business cancelling a reservation because a customer inquires with questions. And I'm glad I checked or I wouldn't have known until I went to check in online or showed up with my family at 4:30am Friday morning. This is absurd. After much debate, she told me that she would credit $244.86 (credit code: -----) and $333.06 (credit code: -----).

    She then informed me that this money had to be redeemed within 90 days, yet the email I received from Frontier today said any cancelled flights would have until December 31st to be used/booked. The earliest I can go anywhere again would be late March 2021, and flights are not available to be booked that far out within 90 days from now. I asked to speak with a manager and she agreed. Then after another long hold period she came to the phone and told me again to hang on and hung up the phone. I've also checked online since and it says all credits/vouchers codes are six digits, so I'm questioning if the $333.06 she gave me is even correct or usable -- she also has not emailed me anything confirming this credit either.

    The COVID-19 virus is a global pandemic, and it is increasingly worsening here in the USA, as you are very aware; therefore, all travel has been discouraged. I am also a healthcare provider and have been asked to remain on the frontlines instead of going on vacation -- which is why I keep inquiring about details and cancellations, credits, refunds, possibilities.

    Per a Frontier email I received today, I should also be getting a $200 additional credit voucher towards future flights ($50 per passenger) -- none of which is listed on my Frontier login via website or app, and I do not have any credits pending. I just want my money back for this unrendered service. (And now I am going to go ahead and cancel all other reservations for this trip as well since Frontier has decided for me for certain by cancelling my flights.)

    Please just refund my money Frontier! (If that is absolutely impossible, please extend the deadline so that I may use for spring 2021.) I am so upset by the consumer being punished, flights being cancelled without consent, credits not being given accurately, insufficient time frames to rebook -- having to argue to get near what I paid as a credit, and zero possibility of refunds. This trip is not cancelled on account of me the consumer, yet I am being punished.... I would much rather be flying with Frontier to sunny Orlando, beaches and Disney World.

    My inquiries to cancel were based solely from a national/governmental/cdc standpoint and possibly needing to stay behind to help care for these infected patients in my area, yet my family is being punished and financial status being jeopardized. I do not understand, for this is a very poor way of doing business. None of this makes sense, I've never heard of a business performing like this, and all other major airlines are also offering 12 months to rebook (just like today's email from Frontier said as well).

    The lady I spoke with tonight told me that as Frontier changes their policies with COVID-19 often, my deadlines may naturally be extended. But with emails I've received, it has been very clear that changes made pertain to AFTER emails are received and within a certain timeframe; whereas, my issue is now consider PAST. I have many friends, family and colleagues that fly with Frontier. We would like to continue doing so. Please render customer service and help correct this asap.

    I purchased a flight 3/13/20 and decided that it wasn’t safe for me, especially being pregnant, to travel due to the nationwide/worldwide outbreak of the COVID-19. I spoke with a representative regarding a refund. He explained they are not honoring refunds, but offering a credit. I thought a credit would be reasonable considering that I fly with Frontier very often. He also explained that the credit can only be used one time and may only be used towards a flight with equal or greater value. I was upset because they were advertising credits, however, if I were to purchase a future flight lesser than the amount I have the credit for, then the rest of the credit will be lost.

    Frontier offers cheap flights regularly. I once found a flight for $9 from MCO-ISP. I didn’t think that it was fair to offer a credit, but if the travel date you select has for example a $9 flight, the rest of my money would be lost to the business. John with Frontier advised to go online and to read the cancellation policy. The policy did not specifically state that I could only use my credit towards a flight of equal or greater value, or the rest of my credit would be lost. John then transferred me to a supervisor, after waiting almost an hour (just to speak with a supervisor). The supervisor began the conversation with again, stating that they could not issue a refund and/or guarantee that my credit would not be wasted if I found a cheaper flight. I explained that John advised for me to look up the policy and I then explained to her that the policy doesn’t state that my credit would be partially lost if I were to find a cheaper flight than what my credit is for.

    She kept referring to the policy and I kept explaining what my concern was within the policy and how I did not want to lose any of my credit. She then started to become slightly irritated and insulted me by saying that the policy is written in plain English if I were to read it. I advised her that she did in fact insult me with her highly offensive comment. I felt it was extremely rude, offensive and highly unprofessional (as I am in the customer service field as well). She explained that I wasn’t going to get what I wanted from the company and that there wasn’t anything she can do for me. I advised her that my entire family and I fly with Frontier often and that every time I have an issue and/or concern, it is always resolved by one of the agents or supervisors. I’ve gotten monetary compensation as well as flight adjustments through the company on a number of occasions where there might of been errors with their system, flights, last minute emergencies, etc.

    She totally disregarded what I had just explained and she again stated that she couldn’t assist me with my issue/concern. I advised her that she could potentially be losing not only one customer, but my entire family as well (we do lots of business with the company and my fiancé travels through frontier multiple times a month). She thanked me and proceeded to close out the conversation with no regard to what I had stated. I then called my bank to reverse the charge. They were more than understanding and explained that due to the special circumstances regarding the outbreak of the COVID-19, they were working especially hard to resolve issues regarding refunds from businesses. I’m very taken back and am very displeased with the service from Frontier Airlines. Especially at a time of crisis in not only our country, but all over the world.

    I would expect much more from an airline at a time like this, especially since I’ve always gotten great service from them in the past. I was not expecting this outcome, especially since I was asking for something very minor. I just wanted the funds that I’ve spent to be fully credited back to me when I decide to fly again. Sadly, my family and I will not be flying with this airline again due to the poor/unfair supposed credit policy as well as the unprofessional, insulting and distasteful behavior/service that was provided to be by a supervisor. Although I will not be flying with the airline any longer, I hope that they do one day consider a fair credit policy for the sake of future travelers.

    I had to fly from Salt Lake City, UT to Austin, TX. My company went bankrupt, so it was time to go back home. Frontier had the lowest price for the one way flight, so I gave them a chance. I'd never flown with them before. Thankfully, I looked at the fine print, and saw that I had to pay for my bags. Carry on, and stowed luggage. The crazy thing is, the luggage was almost as expensive as the ticket! The airline is cool. As far as I saw, it was also one of the few direct flights to Austin from SLC. I dug the planes livery. They have wildlife themed tail wraps.

    Called the help line to cancel due to Corona Virus advisory for travel. This is 30 days before travel date so way ahead of time! They told us that it is $25 change fee each if on the phone on top of cancel fee, better do on-line. SO we did, what it does not tell you that there is a cancel fee of $79 for each traveler ($158 for both of us!!!) - This is bad service for what is going on with the Corona Virus. You would think an exception is made due to the government and CDC advisory. Do not travel with Frontier - bad bad bad service!!!!

    My wife and I booked a trip to Orlando from Houston, however due to travel restrictions from our respective jobs amid the Covid 19 outbreak we attempted multiple times to cancel our flight. We were deemed "not authorized" via their website and on multiple attempts to call the line would go to a busy tone and disconnect. Truly shameful and deceptive business practices at a time when even Spirit Airlines is offering full refunds. Keep the money, hope you guys don't recover from this, and if you do, you will never have business from us or anyone we know in the future. Dr. ** out.

    Everyone from the ticket agents down to the pilots and flight crew were great. Everyone made me feel special. Like the entire flight was just for me. The crew keep me informed as to flight progress and destination time. One of the stewardess lent me her phone when mine died. It was truly a great experience.

    Very poor customer service. On a recent flight they refused to let me bring my CPAP machine on board as carry on despite it is a medical device because I already had a small notebook bag. They wanted me to pay for a carry on because I had a second piece. ADDITIONALLY - I booked a flight on 3/7 for a trip which had to be canceled due to the Corona Virus because the person we were visiting has a serious respiratory condition. Not only would they not even consider letting me reschedule the trip but they were rude about it! No customer service!

    My credit card number was fraudulently used on Frontier Airlines. I noticed the transaction and contacted Frontier Airlines customer service. I first spoke to a customer service representative and informed him of the situation. He asked to verify the name, credit card number and address for the purchase. After it was verified, he informed us that they did have a reservation using that credit card number. He told us that he could credit the money back to our account. We asked if he could provide us the information for the reservation and when it was booked. He told us he needed to review the privacy policy and put us on hold.

    When he returned, he told us that he could not provide that information to protect the privacy of the traveler. Really!!! We informed him, that whoever booked the ticket, did so by using our credit card number without our permission. We then asked to speak to a supervisor twice and he said the supervisor was not available and then he said they would tell us the same thing. We then told him we no longer wanted to speak to him and then he said he would not transfer us to a supervisor until we verified our name. We had verified our name when we called but was told that he would not transfer us until we verified it again.

    We then spoke to the supervisor and she told us that it would violate the traveler’s privacy if she gave us the information of the passenger. We went back and forth about this for about five minutes and finally asked her if she could cancel the reservation because our card was used illegally. She told us that she could not cancel the reservation because we did not have the confirmation number or name of the passenger. We would need to contact our back to get a refund.

    This has been our first and last experience with this company. We have never flown or associated with Frontier Airlines and after this experience, we never will. We were on the phone with customer service for approximately 35 minutes and this situation was just brushed off and we were encouraged to take it up with our bank. This is not an appropriate resolution for the situation.
