Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book your award flights for routes like Denver to Las Vegas in early January or late August, as these months often see reduced demand and better availability for low-cost carriers like Frontier.

Sweet Spot

You can redeem 80,000 miles for a round-trip from Denver to Cancun, which typically costs around $600 in cash.

Routing Trick

You can book a round-trip from Denver to New York City via Orlando for 80,000 miles instead of booking direct flights, saving approximately 10,000 miles compared to a direct route.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid booking flights with Frontier Airlines to popular destinations like Las Vegas, as they often charge high fees for carry-on bags (up to $60) and seat selection (up to $45), which can significantly increase your overall travel cost.
