    We booked 3 premium seats in row 2 for the extra leg room and early boarding. We confirmed our seat choices only to have Frontier change our seats splitting our family up where our child can't sit with his parents. Despite communicating with them that our family paid extra to sit together, we were told our only option was to downgrade but at “no extra cost.” They said they couldn’t put us back together despite separating us in the first place. Now our family is forced to fly separately. What’s the point of paying extra and booking seats if it can be changed at any time without warning, notification, explanation, or remedy? We are frequent travelers on multiple airlines and have never encountered such lunacy. We will NEVER fly Frontier ever again.

    Terrible company. Avoid at all costs. 100$ for very small personal item. Rude customer service. Don’t do it. Could have flown direct with extra baggage fees on Alaska for less money. The cheap cost you see online is not the price you pay. 2 very small Bags over doubled the cost of flight… Run away.

    Frontier made it look like their fares are always cheaper. But their fees on luggage are very high, and they charge for seats! I arrived at their counter 70 mins before the departure time. The girl told me they oversold tickets and no seat left for me. They refused to let me check in and I had to buy tickets with Spirit in order to get to NYC on time. Frontier then refused to give my money back! Totally unbelievable that an airline company thinks they can rob people like this! From doing online research, I found out that apparently they have robbed many other people the same way! There should be a class action lawsuit against this company!

    I finally understand why people refuse this airline. They overbooked our flight causing many of us to have check-in errors that prompted us to go to an agent. Because we had to wait forever in line, check-in closed and we had to be moved to the next flight stating it was out of their hands after check-in closes. Still baffled on how flights can be overbooked in the first place. I'd rather fly Spirit.

    Worst experience just trying to book a flight on this low cost carrier which actually may be worse than Spirit. Frontier will change the price of a flight while you are paying. I was actively putting in my cc number and when I clicked submit they decided to change the price. There are no other airlines that do this. I fly every single week and can assure you that even Spirit does not change prices while the customer is paying.

    Frontier is a scam. They cancel our flight 12am in the morning when it was scheduled to leave at 6am. They canceled the flight in the middle of the night by email. This was a family vacation we had planned for months. They said they would refund us for the cancellation. We paid $1900 total for round trip tickets from Denver to Florida. We had to schedule another flight with another airline and paid $2000 for one way tickets to Florida. We flew the return flight on frontier airlines which was still scheduled. However instead of refunding us half of the $1900 we originally paid they would only give us $600 back. Frontier airlines is terrible. The company is a joke. I will NEVER fly frontier airlines again. They cost me over an extra 1k to get to Florida. Frontier airlines are thieves!

    The only reason I don't give Frontier Airlines zero stars because it's not an option! The customer service is absolutely horrible! I had a connecting flight from Miami to Chicago and then to Las Vegas. Once I got to Chicago I realized that my flight from there to Las Vegas had been cancelled by Frontier last minute. When I asked the Frontier service rep what will happen to my bag, the response was "I don't know. Usually they fly it out on the next flight." Then I asked when was their next flight to Vegas, the response was "There are no flights for today."

    My follow-up question was how was I supposed to get to Las Vegas. The response was "You'll need to find another airlines that might be flying to Vegas". When I asked will I get a refund for the cancelled flight, they just gave me a card with a number and said "Call that number to see if I even qualify for a refund". Long story short - horrible customer service - absolutely no compassion for their customers. I will NEVER fly them again.

Told me us missing our flight was not their problem and told us to figure it out when we get to Atlanta 8 hours late. She then threw a card in my face and said, "If you don’t like it scan the card and go to another airline." Supervisor was telling everybody else to get away and they sat there talking. We finally got home 24 hours later and 1700 more spent to get home. Plus they would not give us our luggage back and we have no idea where it is and they won’t help us. Worst airline.

    So my first issue came as I was on my way to the airport. I was flying out for a funeral. I had paid for a seat, but when I looked they had changed it. Apparently they switched planes and the seat I paid for no longer existed. I received no contact about this. Add in, my ticket stated I could walk short distances, but needed a wheelchair. So tell me why they put me in row 41, the last row on the plane. My initial seat was in row 28 with my daughter who could help me. She was still in her original seat. I would have been in extreme pain trying to get to my new seat.

    As I was arriving to the airport I got a notice that my flight was canceled, less than 10 minutes later I got another notice it was delayed. So I get dropped off thinking I have a delay (which I verified with there app) only to get to the counter to be told it was canceled. I had to call my ride back in D.C. traffic to come get me. Their app never showed the cancellation, they just deleted the flight altogether from their list of flights. Oh but 4 hours later in my flights on the app, it still shows it is delayed. The app shows all these on-time flights, but quick check with the airport shows more than half delayed by an hour or more. In the end I missed the funeral because there was not a single flight that could get me there on time, and they don’t work with other airlines to help people find flights.

    Worst airline I’ve ever flown. Not because of cleanliness but because of virtually every single employee and flight attendant I came in contact with were rude, apathetic, and impossible to work with. Frontier Airlines was the complete opposite of accommodating. I normally don’t leave reviews but I’ve never had such a negative experience with an airline I could not stay quiet. This has been my fourth flight in the last couple of days with them and those will be my last. They do not care about their customers, no matter how many fake smiles they show you. Hated my experience with them. Would not recommend to anyone. Choose any other airline.

    Do not fly Frontier. We had a 20 hr delay going one way and 4 hr delay going back costing us roughly $600 in extra expenses because all our arrangements at the destinations fell through because of the flight delays. They promised $10 food credit due to the lengthy flight delay and never credited us. Anyways, $10 at the airport is only good for 2 bottles of water. We couldn't even get access to boarding passes because their app didn't work and website didn't work. Airport kiosks didn't accept our confirmation code.

    Their customer service rep watched us struggle with their "technology" but wanted to charge $25/person just to print our boarding passes and refused to help us though the technical issues were on their end. They also said, there is no supervisor on site to help us and commanded us to step aside and called next customer in line. Very rude, very unprofessional. Frontier has zero respect for the customers and their reps don't know what customer service means.

    Frontier customer service is non-existent and they don't hold their employees accountable for terrible customer service. If you check into a busy airport plan on being at the airport 2 1/2 to 3 hours before flight to get through. You will spend 20+ mins in bag line because not enough employees and good luck getting through TSA to your flight. We arrived at airport 2 hours before flights, and waited 20-25 mins for bag check and an hour 1/2 for TSA. I arrived at my flight when employee was about to close door and she totally ignored me and shut the door while I was standing at the gate talking to her. Flight leaving cost me $200 in car rental/gas, etc. Customer service basically said, "Sorry for your luck," even when another Frontier employee said I would be refunded since it was out of my control of missing the flight. Will never use this company again.

    DO NOT BUY ANY OF THEIR GOWILD PROGRAMS!!! This is the biggest marketing scam since Charles Ponzi invented the Ponzi scheme. Hats off to Barry Biffle for coming up with a program that you buy and can’t use. I tried. I am retired and have the most flexible schedule. I even based out on Florida to get what I thought was the best origins to locations in the Caribbean. And alas, I could only use it once in 6 month term or program AND the cost of the same flight was like $19!!! HUGE SAVINGS- NOT!

    Here is what they do:

    1) They severely limit the number of seats on each plane. I expected this program to be one which if there was an empty seat, you flew. Not the case at all, which is REALLY STUPID BARRY because if you considered the true economics of your airline, you know it costs nothing to fly an incremental passenger and you could build some great customer GOODWILL (I hope your MBA program taught you that term….) as well as 100% load factors which is always good instead of limiting the frequencies to the lowest fare buckets.

    2) They only have seats available at the lowest fare tranches to begin with. You are better off buying the fares as needed.

    3) And with the limitation on when you can reserve the seats, the low end fare buckets are full.

    This is an ingenious plan by the Ivy League MBAs to maximize forward revenue without the commitment to deliver. GREAT for the corporation. HORRIBLE for the customer. Frontier and Barry Biffle- you should be ashamed of yourselves.

    Had a great flight all in all from Miami to Denver April 1st it was the red eye late at night. Staff was friendly and helpful. Arrived at Denver at midnight, slept on the airport floor waiting for our flight out at 4 am. to Minneappolis. We had traveled with backpack as our personal item the whole trip two airlines and it was fine. They fit under the seat and was not an issue. Never had to pay a carry on fee until we went to board in Denver. After scanning our boarding passes the ticketing lady said, "Wait up check those backpacks. You need to pay for those." I said, "We havent had to pay for these. This is our third plane. It is our personal item." She said, "If it doesnt fit You will pay. I am just doing MY JOB." You bet! Sure enough they did not fit so I paid. Gave her my card, was I happy. Absolutely not I was not happy. $200 for two backpacks it outrageous!!!!!

    When I took my card back she went on a power trip stating SHE HAS THE RIGHT TO DENY ME ACCESS FROM THE FLIGHT. I said for what taking my card back. She stated I grabbed it from her. I took my card back and put it away then she repeated three times She had the right to DENY ME ACCESS to my flight do you know that MAM!

I will never ever give this company a dime of my money again. The most ridiculous experience of my life. When I contacted customer service about this they said well your bag was over the weight limit? My bag was never weighed? It was over the size of the tiny personal item box by an inch but ok.

    Without a doubt the worst airline experience I have ever had! It isn’t the flights or the flight attendants. They are fine. The seating is like being on a park bench but I can deal with that. They are, after all, a discount airline. The problem is administration and the reservation system and web site! They are beyond miserable! I can’t believe they are still in business! My daughter joined Discount Den and has literally spent eight hours in trying to make reservations for a flight to Colorado. My wife and I have spent countless hours trying to deal with their web site and communicating via text with rude people that are untrained and unhelpful.

    We paid the $300 to get their discount fares and have spent hours trying to book flights. We even got the Frontier Master Card and tried to build points toward gold status only to have them tell us via text message that you have to have flight miles to gain toward gold status and purchases don’t count. I could go on and on but if you are considering these guys, I would seriously suggest another airline.

    I will NEVER fly Frontier ever again. Frontier cancelled my flight from Houston to Orlando due to their airplane being out of the required regulatory maintenance schedule. After 5 hours of delays Frontier cancelled the flight because after a certain time the airplane would not be allowed to fly due to it violating its maintenance schedule. Frontier then made believe they were being proactive in resolving the issue and told us an airplane would be coming for us from Denver. After just minutes they said the airplane from Denver was no longer coming and that the flight was just going to be cancelled all together.

    You’d think at that point you would get an alternate arrangement for the next day… WRONG they offered a 20 hour total flight from Houston to Arizona then to Orlando not one but three days after the scheduled flight. Your choices were simple. You either take the offered 20 hour flight 3 days later or receive a partial refund and make it your problem to get back home. After experiencing all of this I decided to rent a car and drive back home to Orlando. After arriving in Orlando I made a refund request to Frontier requesting a full refund for all legs of the trip and some compensation for the additional expenses that were incurred due to their negligence, only to be told the cancellation was out of their control & that nothing could be done besides an $81 refund.

    Meaning this $300 round trip ticket was now costing me $1100 after the rental expense. LESSON LEARNED. Try to cut corners and fly with these “cheap” airlines, just be prepared to spend way more after being left behind and stranded or worst. At the end of it all you will have paid way more than just buying the expensive ticket to fly with one of the established airlines. Until the DOT or FAA step in and start holding these airlines accountable we will continue to receive the short end of the stick. BUYERS BEWARE.

Because of your incompetence, I had to pay for an Uber to get to hotel ($ lost), miss work ($ lost), a doctor's appt, and I had to pay an extra day of airport parking ($145).

    We booked through them with another couple; however, when we bought our bags ahead of time for there and back, they charged us $70/40 lb checked bag…My friend bought theirs 15 minutes after and they were only charged $50 some for the same exact thing! I contacted them right away (not even an hour after I bought the bags), to see if they would refund me or cancel my order (because it would probably be cheaper at the airport-and online wasn’t even quoted that high), but they refused and said it was non-refundable. Then during takeoff, we were stuck on the runway for an hour. On arrival, we got stuck for 2 hours for a gate to open

    Tried Frontier once and never again. After my flight was delayed two hours, we finally starting boarding when I was stopped to purchase a carry-on item. I was confused since on the app it says there was one carry and personal item allowed per flyer. As people continued boarding I got sent to the line with the 10 people they overbooked and couldn’t get a seats for. They said I needed a physical card for purchase so I handed them one and their system was down. The computer was not working and the card swipe machine was not working either.

    At this point, I began panicking a bit because the woman working for Frontier shut the doors to get on the flight. She wouldn’t even look at me when she was talking. I asked if I was still being let on the flight. No response from this lady, she just ordered another worker to “move on to the next customer,” and “close the doors.” I had never felt so disrespected in my life. At this point I felt like crying because I was trying everything I could including paying for it myself online through the app, I had already been waiting 4 hours in the airport and I had already paid for my flight and has an assigned seat.

    I rarely write review for anything but I have to make an exception for this airline. This review is more on their operation rather than employees because they were uninformed just as customers were. My flight of out DCA was delayed 2.5 hours which means I would missed my connecting flight out of Denver to SFO at 10PM. Frontier expects me to sit there for 24 hours until next day.

    I was able to "chat" on-line with an agent after numerous tries and was reboot the next day at 7AM out of DCA which was also late by 1.5 hour. After arriving to Denver, my departing gate was changed from A76 to A42 to A46 to A36 within 45 mins timeframe. Everyone was confused and running around. The flight departed 1.5 late also. Also I had to pay $120 extra to carry-on.

    This was by far the worst experience I have had as a traveler. The flight was delayed 4 times and each time no announcement was made or explanation given. When you do decide to go to the desk to see what options you have or what the delay maybe every Frontier Associate was rude, made the customers feel like we we're bothering them and gave a different explanation to multiple different people. Once we finally boarded the plane the flight crew hung out for about 5-7 minutes chatting and laughing before closing the door for departure. As we begin to finally move in hopes that yay we might actually be leaving after sitting and waiting for 6-7 hours of new ETAS and no updates… then we are grounded due to weather. This was very disappointing and could have been better handled by your crew and staff.

    I literally heard a flight attendant or crew behind desk snap at a passenger because he simply wanted to know if a refund was available and he could be moved to another flight since it had been 4+ hours. Tips for improvement: it’s okay say to say we don’t know and we apologize. I didn’t hear that once today. We know it’s spring break but it’s the way you communicate and when you communicate that allow others to be heard even if there is nothing you can do. Align on customer service training and what best practices should be followed when a delay occurs. Ensure that updates are given otherwise all passengers are forced to listen to someone around them instead of knowing for sure what the actual issue is.

    Lastly and most importantly: treat others like you want to be treated. A lot of the staff seem pretty annoyed but the batter, eye rolling and profanity could have been minimized with announcements, a bit of emotional intelligence and accountability. I will never fly your company again unfortunately, I love a good nonstop flight. But for the $75 I paid for my bag being 4 pounds over 40, the lack of care from your staff and the fact that the plane has not taken off. It’s a no.

Countless stories echo my own - missed and cancelled flights without proper compensation or recourse, excessive fees, penalties imposed without justification or explanation.

    My husband, brother, daughter, and I were all booked on the same flight to fly to Florida to see our grandmother. 2 days before our flight was due to depart our grandmother passed unexpectedly. Frontier was far less than accommodating. Offering $186 future airline credit (valid for 90 days) out of almost $700 spent on these tickets. We could not simply change the dates due to the departing flight being so close and not knowing the exact date of funeral arrangements and the funeral being in an entirely different part of the country. We were met over and over with 'as an airline company our policy is'... it's just baffling to me that they have such little compassion and empathy in such a time of tragedy for a family. Other airlines such as Southwest and even Allegiant have been FAR more accommodating in far less of a crisis as death in the family.

    I will utilize my credit if able within the next 90 days and then I will NEVER use this airline again and will never recommend it to anyone. I have spent the last 4 hours jumping through absolute hoops to get to this point because they have NO customer service contact other than a chat option or automated system in which the chat option disconnects frequently then you have to start from scratch. I went through 6 different 'assistants' in 4 hours. My brother went through 5 for his reservation. The final conclusion we got "send a copy of your grandmother's death certificate to get $99 back". Respectfully, I hope the CEO of this airline gets what is coming to them. Absolutely disgusting.

    My $50-advertised RT ticket was not $50. It was $167 upfront. Not nice. My flight was canceled at the last minute, and then the new flight (which got me up at 3 a.m.) was delayed twice for a total 23-hour late departure on a weekend trip. After the cancellation, I discovered Frontier Airlines does not have humans handling customer service. After trial and error and 45 minutes spent with a chat bot, I rebooked another flight. At Frontier, when you buy a plane ticket, a SEAT IS NOT INCLUDED. I guess they expected me to hold onto the wings. I didn’t know this until check-in when they added to my bill. At this point, it was too late to cancel my trip. They also charged $70 to bring a carry-on. Now my cost was over $360.

    Frontier ruined my trip and charged me 6x the advertised price. I wrote an email to Frontier’s Leadership Team members. ALL the emails bounced back.

I told her NO that I was not intoxicated. She then asked me to come off the flight to speak with her outside. I was confused and repeated that I was fine.

    After leaving the flight She said we were going to speak with her manager to make sure I was ok to fly. Next thing I know she said I was not getting back on the flight. I asked her why did she tell me that we were going to speak to a supervisor then? She acted as if she was going to get the supervisor off the plane. She called her coworkers who was standing in front of me on video chat for her to ask me where were my belongings. She claimed she couldn't find them and allowed the flight to leave with all my personal belongings. She also lied and said that she told me I wasn't allowed back on the flight. Why would anyone leave their flight with nothing? My carry on bags, wallet, 2 cell phone, money everything.

    Where to start. My wife and I booked a flight to Little Rock for my best friend’s funeral. We were extremely early. Checked in our bag and waited by the gate for hours. The flight was delayed multiple times which is understandable as things happen. They then switched the gate multiple times and in the miscommunication if there was any communication at all, we missed our flight. Even the information desk and boards could not keep up with the correct information.

    My wife and I left the airport and have now rented a car to drive 15 plus hours to make it to the funeral tomorrow. Our luggage is in Little Rock and I am told that I can not receive that luggage until after 4pm. The funeral is at 11 am. So we must now either go buy new clothes to look presentable or show up in sweats. You know comfy flying wear. I am appalled by their tactics. No Customer Service to talk to, only through a dang app! They did say that they will refund the flight out but will not refund the flight back. I think it’s the least they could do is comp the flight back as well as we are now out another $800.00 for the rental, gas, sleepless night and now clothes, so I can say goodbye to my best friend.

    I am not asking a lot of them. Admit you were wrong and make it right! I plan on being extremely loud about this. I don’t care if I have to find the CEO or the President of the company.

    When checking in online this airline had my 2 year old niece sitting by herself.. 10 rows back. While my mom, sister and myself all had seats next to each other. So, I had to switch seats with my niece. The person I talked to said we would have no problem adding my niece to our flight and that we would all be together. Well that was a lie. Also your bag “policy” is a joke. Making people pay $100 for a personal item as a carry on when their bag FIT in the personal item.

    Staff were super rude to people that just wanted answers. One passenger had to pay the $100 for a small poster tube and for her personal item that was apparently too big. So overall she had to pay $200 or wasn’t allowed on. For all the fees and baggage fees you might as well fly with a better airline that’s a little more expensive. Because it will more than likely be the same price. We left Minneapolis 30 mins early before our scheduled time to leave. We got to Orlando airport but were not able to get to a gate. We then waited there for an hour on the parked plane.

    Most uncomfortable seating, Limited outlets at gate. Staff waiting til the last minute to help people at the counter. Never announced for children under 3 to board before they start calling zones. Staff checking literally every single personal item and trying to scam people so they can get their incentive. I guess this airline can just keep doing that if they basically want to go out of business. Because you lost 3 customers from this last trip. Never again. Worst airline out there.

We ended up having to spend the night at a hotel as flight got rescheduled to next morning, which also ended up being delayed about 2 due to having pilots fetch plane from hangar.

    I'm deeply dismayed by the shocking treatment we endured from Frontier Airlines in Salt Lake City. In all my years of traveling, I've never encountered such appalling customer service. It all began with a simple inquiry about an excessive additional baggage fee. Instead of a polite explanation, we're met with hostility and disbelief from the staff. To our disbelief, we're pressured into paying an extra $100, falsely led to believe it would secure our place on the flight. This marked the beginning of a nightmare. After making the payment, we're abruptly informed that we're not allowed to board due to our 'persistent questioning' about the fees. This arbitrary decision left us shocked and distressed. Adding insult to injury, Frontier made baseless accusations of aggression and even summoned security to intimidate us. Fortunately, the airport personnel, showing more sense than Frontier, attempted to help mediate. Despite their efforts, we're heartlessly denied boarding without any valid explanation.

    Desperate for solution, we turned to customer service, hoping for assistance. However, we're met with indifference and apathy. Hours spent in futile online chats yielded nothing but a refusal to refund our money. How can a supposedly reputable airline treat paying customers with such blatant disrespect and dishonesty? Frontier' disregard for basic decency and consumer rights is truly reprehensible. After paying our tickets and luggage, Frontier effectively left us stranded in a city that wasn't our home. We're forced to scramble for funds to book alternative flights. People informed us that this mistreatment was common with Frontier. It's utterly unacceptable to leave paying customers stranded and helpless, especially when it's a recurring problem that the airline refuses to address.

    Booking with Frontier Airlines for a family trip to Cancun turned out to be an absolute nightmare. Initially, we thought two checked bags would suffice for our family of five. However, as departure day approached, we realized another bag was necessary. Trying to purchase this additional checked bag online became the first in a series of frustrating failures due to persistent errors stating “passenger details are missing,” both on the browser and the mobile app. Attempts to rectify this through the app only led to more confusion and, ultimately, unintended charges.

    Adding insult to injury, our flight to Cancun was delayed by over an hour, with little to no communication from the airline about the delay’s cause or expected duration. This lack of communication became a recurring theme when attempting to resolve the overcharge for baggage. The Frontier customer service was practically non-existent. Attempts to reach out for support through their prescribed channels were met with silence. There was no way to chat or speak to anyone in real-time when we needed it the most.

    At the airport, confusion continued. The check-in staff could only confirm three bags were purchased, hinting at a system glitch. This suspicion was confirmed when I later found double transactions for the baggage on my credit card. Despite reaching out to their support via email to explain this clear error on their part, I received nothing but standard, unhelpful responses reiterating their no-refund policy on baggage, completely ignoring the crux of the issue.

    Frontier’s handling of this situation showcased their appalling customer service. It seems their low ticket prices are a facade to mask the real costs and headaches. Their system is flawed, customer support is unresponsive, and their policies are rigid to the point of unfairness. I strongly advise against flying with Frontier Airlines. The money you save on ticket prices can quickly be overshadowed by unexpected charges and an utter lack of support. I, for one, will never be flying with Frontier again and recommend others to steer clear if they value their time, money, and sanity.

Passengers were disembarked, and multiple passengers had been assigned the same seat. After half the plane was unloaded, Reps refused to give any explanation of what was happening, leaving passengers confused and stressed.

    The issue I encountered today took over 5 hours of chat to get reconciled. I ended up canceling my flights and fought to have the misleading Discount Den membership refunded the same day it was purchased.

Frontier has no costumer service except an automated message system that has limited access to what it can help you with. This is a constant issue with this airline about 95 % of the time. Customer satisfaction is not their primary concern. They also try to give you a voucher for certain amount and it only covers the airfare which is about 10% of the cost of the ticket. Most of the charges are between taxes and extra fees that this airline charges.

To make matters worse, Frontier Airlines have no live representative customer service dept to speak with. No valid phone numbers. The only way to talk to anyone is by way of an online chat or text.

    What's even more frustrating is that their chatter can't see previous comments in the conversation thread and makes you repeat everything with long delays in between.

    Tempting with GoWild pass ($1,999/yr) but not even a penny worth at all because Frontier takes a lot more advantages over additional fees. Frontier can hostage for paying more fees than the GoWild pass, not offering to book the ticket for GoWild options although there are more than half of the empty seats! Not worth to buy the GoWild pass! It ends paying much more than other airlines.

    I had a personal item getting onto my flight and the agent said to put it in the box and make sure it fit. It did fit and she said it was not OK and that I had to pay $99 or I could not get on my flight. She was rude and insisted that it did not fit. I took a picture of it and you cannot see the bag above the box. It’s almost impossible to get a hold of anyone and then they told me they could not refund the money even though I could prove I was correct.

    WARNING! Frontier Airlines is the shadiest airline I've ever dealt with in my 65 years of flying! I booked a flight and paid it in full for what their website said it cost. I printed it all out. Then I just looked at my trip in my account and they had ADDED $294.82 to my costs. I did not change one thing from the original booking, they just added it. They have no customer service you can call and I sent emails with no response and I sent a DM in Messenger and the Frontier rep Jen said there was nothing she could do. First she tried to say I made a change but I promise you, that never happened, my printout from the day I booked it proves I didn't. I will never ever deal with this airline again and if you're smart, you won't either.

    I have flown with Frontier almost exclusively just about every time I have flown in the last 2 years. I have always been happy with the price and timing of the flights I needed. Up until now I have had very little issues. For both of my flights they split me and my daughter up. We bought the tickets together and we couldn’t be seated together? Of course to be together I had to pay to select the seats. When I arrived at the airport I did the self service check in and tagged my daughter’s field hockey goalie bag. When I went to the bag drop they told me it was overweight, it always is. Sporting equipment is not light. The lady looked at me and said that will be $125, I responded to her that I had already paid for my bag prior to coming. She said I had to pay the overweight fee. I have never had to pay that. I didn’t pay it on my way down 4 days ago. I mentioned to her that they always waive the overweight fee for sporting equipment.

    She simply said no and that her supervisor said she had to charge me. So now I have to pay the service fee and over weight fee. I am honestly not upset if this is policy but how is a person supposed to be prepared for this if they are not consistent. Not to mention the sheer lack of caring about the person in front of them asking for clarification. They have absolutely lost a customer after this. Not to mention on the way down they covered my daughter's bag in airplane grease and when I asked the attendant that handles the baggage, she told me that it was just a risk you take when you fly. Only to go online and find out I can file a claim but I had to be within 4 hours of arriving. Glad I didn’t trust her and tried to file the claim but SUPRISE it would not let me. The website does give you the option to talk to a “person” through a chat. After about 10 minutes of trying to get past the auto prompts I finally got a real person I think and they kind of help.

    She told me to go online and fill out this feedback form. I told her ok but what about the 4 hour window? She said I will document your account. So we will see if they do anything about that or if it is just another way to screw your over. Thanks Frontier for being America's WORST airline! I truly saved nothing by choosing this airline. Not worth the way they treat you. Apparently customer service is not in the top of their priority.

    Frontier Airlines overcharge our account 3 times for the monthly wild pass in both of the account. Bank said it seems like fraudulent transaction so We got part of the money back and bank send us a new bank card. I also need to do it with my other account. This happened in one month 6 times. So our story with the most terrible Airline Frontier. We went past the security, with our tickets and boarding passes so all seems ok! Then when we arrived at the gate the lovely Frontier agent said she will have to accommodate us in different seat and we didn’t have any issue with it. Then she came back and said she only have one seat available. To then finally said we can’t flight. We must catch another flight.

    With my two elderly parents at that time in a airport and not able to get a voucher not even for a hotel? It was very cold that night and we went to the ticketing and nobody was there. Until 3:30 am but I was not able to be seeing until 4:30 am when the cruelest supervisor “Puerto Rican for sure my own people that doesn’t remember where they came from so, eventually they feel in highness, when they have a little highest position for an airline“. That agent was heartless than the one at the gate night before and she said to ticket agent not to help us and we must pay 99$ per each because there was no note from agent of last night plus she said don’t even touch this reservation. She said I know that the flight last night went empty when the gate agent said there was not seat available? Who is lying?

    Therefore, she make us sleep with my elderly parent in wood hard seat all night at the airport. That must have to be refunded, they took our money from our first reservation. I did it online second time with my wild pass next day and I flew for 60$ instead 400 as they want us to. They owed us 427$ still for refund. We ended up paying hotel for a night next day. Plus travel two days after. I can said this is unfair and not to give any good credit and good reputation for this airline as is frontier at all. Shame on them. I am Waiting to file a lawsuit.

    I've been a United Airlines fan for years, but recently got hooked into Frontier because of needing to fly DEN to STL for a year. I made the mistake of signing up for their credit card. Similar to their flights, it looked like an amazing deal. After a few months of winding through the Frontier AL maze of add-on charges and loopholes and restrictions, and never getting the miles from the credit card (with mafioso interest rate), then comparing the actual cost for a flight with United AL (which makes everything so simple and easy and clear and fair) it turns out the cost is only a bit higher with United AL. And I get to keep my sanity. And I'm shutting down the Frontier mafioso interest rate credit card that never gave me the miles it promised. I like life without feeling scammed. And I'm willing to pay a bit more for that. Thank you United AL.

    This is the first and last time we’ll ever take Frontier. We took this flight only because our previous one was canceled. Both airports were somewhat out of the way which is inconvenient but we took what we could get. When buying the tickets, we thought it was ridiculous to be charged $100 extra for a bag over 40 lbs but we went ahead anyway.

    When we went to claim our bag, one wheel was missing, one was broken, and another was likely structurally compromised as it broke soon after. I honestly don’t know how a suitcase could be broken that badly if someone tried, let alone if only carelessness was involved. We filed a claim for a refund but they said they wouldn’t help us because we didn’t send the file in the time period that they wanted. Even if there was good reason for that policy, it was unreasonable to expect customers to just “know” that. I tried to explain that and I posted photo proof of the damage (including the time it was taken, which was soon after landing), but they didn’t respond. They didn’t care about proof or security cameras or anything. They just want to penny pinch I suppose, to the expense of their reputation.

    This airline doesn’t treat their customers well. Even if you encounter no problems on a flight, they won’t help you if problems arise on the next flight. We wasted too much money on this rip-off of an airline. Steer clear and don’t make the same mistake! Their customer service is awful. It’s better to pay lots more for better service somewhere else.

    They purposely charge well below every other airline to lure people in to thinking they are the cheapest but once you have the ticket and come to check in that’s when fees start to pile on and not make sense.

I was a fan of the low prices but after watching them charge extra fees to 2 out of 3 passengers on my last flight it disgusts me that they are playing with people who are literally looking for a cheap deal and then taxing them before they jump on the flight where they have no choice but to pay or lose their flight.

    First time used Frontier in December 2023. I enrolled for Discount Den, then I booked flight from ATL to MIA. I also purchased a checked luggage >40 and 50 pounds for $75 one way, $150 round trip. I got into the airport and to my surprise, I was told that I must purchase the default checked baggage for $63 one way that allows upto 40 pounds before the above purchased checked baggage can be applied. Question: Why did the website allowed me to purchase >40 pound checked bag purchase if <=40 pound bag purchase is a MUST?

    I tried purchasing <=40 pound checked bag in their website on my phone at the airport, it threw error and showed the error to the Frontier kiosk member, she suggested me to try from another phone, then again tried using my son's phone, yet it threw error, she looked at my account in her system and found that it has charged 2 transaction of $134 twice for the checked baggage, though it threw error both in my phone and my son's phone. When I reported this issue to the customer care, their blind response is that once the checked bag is purchased, they will not refund. Well it is their BUGGY website using deceptive practice to charge the credit while it throws error to the user, I wanted only one checked baggage, but due to their website issue, it charged twice. Customer service is useless and I did not get a refund of duplicate checked luggage charges from them.

    Beware of this issue, they will not refund the money even if it is their website fault. I will never use them again. In fact my checked luggage was 40 pounds only and I also asked the customer service that their website allowed me to purchase >40 pounds if <=40 pound bag is a MUST, asked for refund of $150 as well, but again they did not honor my request as well.

Also, went to the Frontier Agent at the airport and asked if I could check luggage in there. Asked how much to check in luggage and print out boarding passes there with the agent and was quoted $25.00, so I looked at my bank account and was charged $50.00 (for 1 checked bag and 2 boarding passes).

    You will not save any money flying this airlines. What is strange is there are 2 employees working the self check in baggage and 3 agents at the customer service. So if you are already paying employees to work, then why not keep them busy by checking in baggage and printing out boarding passes. 2 agents were just standing there with nothing to do. Luggage should be free up to a certain weight if you are having customers do it themselves. It just blew my mind. I will never travel this airlines again.

It's greed or just horrible decision making by the big wigs at the round table. I'm seriously so confused how anyone can make decisions like this and think it's good for their company.

    Frontier changed our flight and moved it back 6 hours which would have made us miss our other activity so I had no other option but to cancel the flight. They said they would give me a full refund because this was 100% their fault and then when I get the refund receipt they charged me $115.00 "Carrier interface charge" and a $99.00 "Cancellation/Change fee". A full refund means I get all of the cost returned to me. This is a terrible company as you can see from the other reviews as well. By the time I paid all of their other fees and baggage costs we could have just flown Delta for the same cost. NEVER AGAIN!

    Son lives in SLC, and travelling to MSP. We usually go Delta, but Frontier had a better time and price (more on that below). Son sat on tarmack in SLC for 1 1/2 hours due to "communication issues" according to the pilot. He and ten other passengers missed connecting flight in DEN by 5 minutes. Frontier thought it would be a good idea to let that flight leave early, so oh well. Frontier offered nothing, claiming that the delay in SLC was due to weather (contradicted by the pilot), and to make things "good" offered a midnight flight to Orlando, with a 15 hour layover, and flight back to MSP on Tuesday.

    Good luck finding a warm body at a Frontier desk when things go south. Not sure where my son's luggage is now. Saving money with Frontier cost me a $150 hotel room and $350 replacement flight on Southwest last night, so I have learned my lesson. AS a family we have never had worse service in all the years may family has flown. If the next flight on Frontier is hundreds of dollars cheaper than a competing fare, I won't even be tempted to select Frontier.

    I was charged a total of $179 to fly my one checked bag one way from Las Vegas to New Orleans. I had questions to try to get the cheapest possible bag fees with the chat, and was told that it would be $79 total for a one way one bag to fly. When I got to the airport, they charged me an additional $100. They damaged my bag and promised online that they will replace it. That was over a month ago, and every-time I manage to chat with someone, they have no idea of what I am talking about. They split up our seats to have us pay for seats. It is too stressful to try to get your refunds, or any answers period. Peace of mind is princess. I’m on chat now, and have been for a little over an hour. Our bag costed around $250.

I was there on time and my electronic boarding pass on the frontier app disappeared and this isn’t the first time. Finally I make it to my gate at 11:06 well before their 15 cutoff and the gate was closed and my seat given away. The exact quote from the frontier staff at the gate was “11:24 pm departure is an estimate and we can close the gate after flight is full”. Really???? How is that possible that I have an assigned seat and can’t get on because you are overbooked? If you ask too many questions, they threaten to call the security. What a shame.

    Frontier is the WORST airline I have EVER flown and will never EVER fly them again!!! Sure the INITIAL low fair price looks decent but that is BEFORE the added fees. Only one suitcase per passenger and must be under 40 pounds, $90 for any additional suitcases that also has to be under 40 pounds and THEN MORE money if you want a carry on!!! AND refreshments on the flight are not free. $5 for a average plane size cup of beverage and of course no internet availability on the flight. It's absolutely ridiculous and in the end costs you WAY more money. Southwest allows two suitcases and they can be 50 pounds each. Do not fly Frontier's pathetic airline unless you are absolutely desperate for a flight and ready to pay an extreme amount of money for the ability to bring clothes with you like a normal person who travels.

    I and my daughter had a flight scheduled for 11/17/23 to Puerto Rico. Upon arrival at the airport, we were prevented from using the self-service kiosks to check our luggage. Instead, we, along with dozens of other passengers were instructed to wait in an area adjacent to the check-in counter. At this time, the line at Frontier was longer than TSA and longer than all other carriers combined. Bags must be checked at least 1 hour prior to departure. We were all held until 55 minutes before the flight was scheduled to board. We were then told we could use the kiosk.

    We were informed by the kiosk that it was too late to check the bag and directed to the counter. At the counter we were told we could be rebooked on a flight 16 hours later for an additional fee which was higher than the original ticket price. A dozen other passengers suffered the same fate. I asked why we were not permitted to use the kiosk upon arrival, but was not given an answer. I asked to be placed on standby for an earlier flight since we were there and not permitted to check in. My request was denied. I requested my luggage be placed on a later flight and we be permitted to catch our scheduled flight. My request was denied. I requested to be rebooked without the additional fee. My request was denied. I requested a full refund. My request was denied. I requested a refund of my seat and baggage charge and was denied.

Almost two months after I received a letter from my bank that Frontier claims it WAS a valid charge, denied the dispute, and the credit was again taken from my account! After that I was advised by my bank that I would have to settle this with the airline because frontier is not providing them with all the information needed and it so hard to get a hold of anyone there.

    I reached back out in the chat taking forever to finally speak with a person. The rep advised me the reason why my price change was because I add a bundle, I advised him that I DID NOT add any extras because I didn’t need to so that was a website error and cancel with in a min!

I then sent him the letter the bank sent me showing where the credit was reversed and he still refused to refund the booking! Offered a full flight credit trying to force me to deal with this horrible company again, I declined! So now Frontier stole $584.94 from me due to their crappy website and refuses to refund it!

I really didn't know about this new protocol and I have used these seats on other occasions without any problems. That day I was using my headphones and I didn't hear well what the flight attendant was saying. As soon as she made her protocol about the emergency exits we all answered "yes" but she looked at me and said: do you understand English? I answered: "a little." She Immediately she told me: I need to change you because the person who is there must understand commands in case of emergency (which is understandable). What is not understandable is the negative attitude with which she treated me. As if I had done something wrong. This happened in front of all the passengers.

    She moved me to the second row on the right side of the previous emergency doors. Next to the emergency door there were three young women. And I myself saw how she sold alcohol to that women, and they ended up drunk next to an emergency door. So what's worse? Although my English is not the best, I have the ability to act quickly. On the return trip on 11/26, I sat in seat 12D at the emergency exit and had the ability to tell the young flight attendant to remove the passenger from 12F from the door because she was acting strange and she told me that she consumed **.

    My experience with Frontier: Our family of four arrived at MCO at around the standard two hours before departure and checked in one bag. The security checkpoints power WENT OUT for about half hour and it took us much longer to get through. By the time our family reached the gate, it was closed. Not only did Frontier not take into account the delay through security, the flight left EARLY by their own admission!!

    I proceeded to the ticket counter and was told that “the delay wasn’t really all that long” and that we would need to PAY an additional $100 PER PASSENGER to reroute trip- NO EXCEPTIONS. We could wait two more days for next available flight to Laguardia from Orlando or fly to Trenton because “It’s only about a half hour drive or you can take a train into Manhattan” per Frontier agent. We also had to ‘reroute’ our hotels and eventually arrived in Trenton close to midnight, with no luggage. We then realized that Trenton is about a two hour drive to Manhattan, so we scrambled to reserve a rental car.

    The following day (the only Saturday of our vacation) we rent a car on our own dime and drive early to NYC and head to LGA to pick up our luggage. (I quickly find that there is no Frontier staff available on a Saturday until 3:30 pm.) I finally reach the counter and attendant tells me that our luggage is not at the airport, but that it was in the next incoming flight from Orlando (5:30 pm arrival). I wait an additional two hours only to find that our luggage did NOT ARRIVE IN THAT FLIGHT. I speak with another Frontier agent who also searches for the bag and tells me that she has no clue where it is. I then ask to speak with a supervisor on duty and am told that I have to wait an hour.

    At around 6:30 pm, I explain AGAIN the situation to the supervisor and she tells me that the luggage MAY be in Orlando because it would not have boarded the plane if the associated passenger did not (this would mean that the luggage is placed in plane after the passenger boards – this is completely absurd), or that it MAY be in Trenton, but that I nevertheless need to file a missing luggage claim.

    At this point, I was obviously very upset and let the supervisor know that as supervisor and customer service agent, she should call Orlando and Trenton to VERIFY if the luggage was at any of those locations (customer service 101). I was literally told that I was ‘ACTING LIKE A VICTIM’! I again explained that it is reasonable for a paying customer to expect the airline to try to find missing luggage, and asked if I should wait there until she called the locations or if I should go to hotel and wait for a call. The supervisor asked me to sit while she called Trenton. A minute later the supervisor comes with MY MISSING LUGGAGE. She said that it was in a closet, turned around and left without issuing any sort of apology. Perhaps she expected me to apologize for complicating her shift.

    Result of trip with Frontier: Down about an additional $500, LOST ONE FULL WEEKEND DAY OF VACATION, and extreme STRESS. To rub a little salt in wound I was offered a $50 voucher per person for next trip with Frontier (the one thing Frontier does not lack is humor). Below is excerpt from Customer Relations ‘Specialist’, Lisa C’s reply for refund of additional fees and costs. Corporate CYA at its finest…

    “I've taken this opportunity to conduct a final review of your case and we find out your original flight departed before because it was ready having on mind all our times to ensure your flight policies. I am glad to see that you ultimately completed your trip and arrived at your destination despite the temporary disruption.

While choosing my luggage to pay for, a button popped up saying save over $300 by clicking here and bundle your luggage. I ended up being $330 more. I tried to check in with the agent at check in and she said there is nothing she could do. I asked at the ticket counter after getting off the plane and they said there is nothing they could do and to ask for a refund at the online chat with Frontier. I have spent 1.5 hours with online chat and they say there is nothing they can do after the flight. Flying with Frontier feels like getting scammed by a major airline.

The seats on their brand new plane were like recycled milk carton yard furniture. They spent 20 minutes talking about how good of an airline they were and ended the spiel with an advertisement to get their credit card. The crew was nice, but the counter lady in Minneapolis seemed like she didn’t want to be there and her only role was to say which group to board and monitor bag sizes so you could pay. The guy who scanned tickets was dressed like ground crew. One of the flight attendants looked like she didn’t comb her hair that day. Like she got out of bed and threw it in a clip. They were all nice, friendly and helpful.

    Overall, I felt like this airline’s isn’t really about customer service. Their focus is on charging their customers for everything but not providing anything but a ride.

    We 4 (2 Adults and 2 Kids) travelling from Orlando to NJ back home. We have been trying to check in system way before the departure 6-8 hours prior. They gave 2 separate reservation not sure why. System allowed us to check-in 3 passengers reservation but not 1 PASSENGER reservation when trying to do at the same time.. maybe couple of minutes of interval.. We have been trying to check in 6 hours prior to departure since morning and continuously tried and were getting server errors. Reached airport and no customer service addressed the check-in issue, so no boarding pass. I decided to stay back and work with Frontier staff and asked my family to go ahead. They went thru the security and reached there will before the closing time but staff denied my family to on-board the flight who were there at the gate at 2:00 pm. Well before boarding closing time 2:08 pm and flight take off time was at 2:23 pm.

    Not sure what's the reason while they allowed other passenger to onboard while they stopping my wife and kids. My family felt that they have showed discrimination against our race/nationality and felt very bad, argued but nothing worked, Not only my family, they stopped several passengers of the same race/nationality. This is not at all tolerable. Also it looks like they have assigned our 3/4 seats to someone else. How can they do? Initially they treated it as separate reservations now they treated it as one group. My family had to came back and Frontier charged 99.99 for each passenger for re-booking and they did not provide the flight for same destination.

    If there is no mistake from airlines, why did they allow us for rebooking, so that means definitely there is issue with their system, proof is several other passengers faced the issue and racism/discrimination by the onboarding staff not allowing particular race/nationality to onboard while allowing others. Due to the above issues, we had to book the hotel, rent car and cancel my plan over the weekend home and Monday. In addition we had to take Lyft from one airport to other airport to pick up my car and pay for extended parking. This is not just me or my family feedback, but 100s of passengers affected by these on that day, you might have received similar complaints from several passengers. We still did not come out of the nightmare, trauma and stress that me and my family had to face, not in a position to think of flying with frontier again or recommend others.

    My brother sent my mother via frontier round trip on Frontier from Dtw to Phx and back. First flight had plastic seats. Flight home had a pervert and was overly crowded. She got to Dtw and discovered her luggage was also missing. Their solution is scan a qr code that's on the back of a cardboard cutout on the floor and the live person who responds takes 5 mins to send each message. No baggage claim office there. Nothing. Very rude personnel and very uncomfortable flight. Baggage made its way back the next night and a random person whose luggage was apparently also missing from that flight found my mom's luggage and called us. Insane.

    0/10 do not recommend. Way below a "you pay what you get for" experience. I've paid less on other airlines and never lost my luggage and wasn't talked to like a cretin or had my luggage tossed around. Absolutely insane. She had every right to be concerned. Her diabetic supplies were in that bag as well as blood pressure cuff and laptop.

    Fly into Atlanta from rude check-in agents out of Cincinnati, gate reps don’t know what to do??? International flights require an actual passport class to board plane. They did not know anything. Started threatening that they would close the doors if we could not get on plane in 5 minutes. Stand in this line, to the left, to the right, no single file, no board is you checked in today, who went through customs, more threats! Then we get on the plane, people had to pee and one of the flight attendants said as she walked down the aisle wagging her finger, “Not on my watch." They don’t! Oh no no no! They were snippy, wanted a fortune for water and was the worst flight ever. If you think you will save money, think again! By the time you add up all the fees, punishments, fines and extra charges like clean air you could have bought a first-class ticket on Delta!!!!

    Canceled flight without reason, rescheduled for next morning, canceled that one bc the crew didn’t show up. Honestly, if a crew can’t show up to work maybe I wouldn’t trust them to fly a plane. Rescheduled flight again this time with a layover (we originally had a direct flight) in Atlanta from midnight to 6am (nothing open in the airport) finally got to destination and lost 2.5 days of our 5 day vacation. Our last vacation before our son went to college.

    Bought insurance to cover any flight changes due to hospitalization of close family member. Had to pay difference in flight cost, fees, and the checked in bags were higher than the original flight. We had to pay over $500 to change the flights, in hopes that we may get some sort of refund, if we have a qualified reason to book a different return flight. Also the past two times flying with Frontier we paid for seat upgrades only to be given standard seats. They are advertising low price tickets, only to charge more for baggage seating, and “non insurance.” This Airline should have their licenses revoked. Pay more for the major airlines, and stay away from Frontier.

    This is the worst airline, company, business, whatever they consider to be is the worst. No humanity, pure scam, no customer service at all, cheap but out of class and I really don’t know how they are still flying and disrespecting people like they do. They are an insult for the aircraft and airlines business. They should be out of business by now.

    In the past 6 flights we had with Frontier, we have been assigned separate seats even though we have booked them together. I understand the policy to charge for a seat but as I understood it, it was for better seat assignments not to seat together as a couple that booked tickets at the same time. As I looked around, I noticed that it happened to as many as 6 or 7 other couples in one of the flights. The agent at the counter are always a hit or miss with their desire to help us with the seats and most times tell us we have to pay the fee to sit together, leaving us with the seat shuffle once in the aircraft. We paid a membership with Frontier for discounts DEN and that we have gotten but this new problems with seats assignments is really getting aggravating.

    Worse experience of my life traveling with this Frontier Airlines from Cancun. We had a great anniversary trip till the day we’re suppose to fly home which unfortunately did not happen. Here begin the story of the nightmare. We arrived to the airport 3.5 hours prior to take off. We went to the airport lounge to wait for the flight. We left the lounge with plenty time prior to flight leaving and once we got to the gate the ticket agents said they wouldn’t let us on even though we had another 20 plus min before they take off. Instead they told us because they boarded early and we weren’t there they were looking for our luggage to remove it from the plane (doing this wasted more time than letting us on the flight). I then asked what will happen? How do we get home since at the time we had nowhere to go or stay. All the ticket agents would say is, "Sorry. Nothing I can do. Please go to immigration."

    We tried to change the flight but they weren’t accommodating. So at this time we’re taken to baggage claim and have nowhere to go or another flight. I was told to speak to customer service to see how we can get another flight. Well I walked to customer service and they were all walking out for the day. They told me, "Sorry we’re closed. We’ll be back tomorrow." Sayyy whattt. What airport closes and doesn’t have the staff to help!!!! Insane!!!! AT THIS POINT CANCÚN FRONTIER AIRLINES AND AIRPORT LEFT US STRANDED WITH NO HELP.

    So then the next day we’re back at the airport present for the flight and get on this time. Now boarding time should have ended and then we overhear the flight attendants speaking with the same ticket agents from the day prior saying they’re waiting for two more before taking off. WTH and they wouldn’t let us on. I’m so disappointed and need answers!!!!
