Frontier Airlines Adds 42 New Routes Throughout United States

New Growth Expands Affordable Air Service and Brings Low Fares to Millions of New Fliers

January 7, 2016 6:00 AM EST

DENVER, CO -- (Marketwired) -- 01/07/16 -- Frontier Airlines will add new non-stop service in 42 markets throughout the United States. This new service begins in April, and Frontier is offering special introductory fares as low as $39 one-way on these new routes as of today at Flyfrontier.com.

"Travelers between big cities have enjoyed low fares while many markets have remained overpriced and underserved," said Frontier Airlines President Barry Biffle. "Frontier's low fares in these new markets will benefit millions of new fliers who are forced to drive because they haven't found affordable air travel options -- or they simply stay at home. We see hundreds of additional opportunities like these throughout the country, fueling our growth for years to come."

Customers can take advantage of Frontier's bundled choice, The WORKSsm, containing Frontier's most popular options for one low price. The WORKS is available at FlyFrontier.com at time of initial booking and includes one carry-on bag, one checked bag, best available seat including Stretch and Exit Row options, full refundability when canceled at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure, no change fees and priority boarding.

Following is a list of the new markets:
