Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book award flights with Frontier Airlines for travel to popular summer destinations like Orlando or Las Vegas starting in late January through mid-February for the best availability and lowest mileage requirements.

Sweet Spot

You can fly round-trip from Denver to San Francisco for 40,000 miles, which typically costs around $400 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can book a round trip from Denver (DEN) to San Juan (SJU) via Orlando (MCO) for 40,000 miles instead of the direct route which often costs 50,000 miles, saving you 10,000 miles while enjoying the added stop in Florida.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid flying with Frontier Airlines on routes to Las Vegas, as they often charge up to $60 for seat selection and $45 for carry-on bags.
