Frontier is known for everyday low fares, but this flash sale is seeing flights got for as little $20 one-way. To see if your city and travel dates work with this sale, head to the Frontier deals page. To secure the deal, be sure to book before 11:59 p.m. EST on October 7.

Keep in mind that Frontier charges extra for everything from a carry-on bag to a seat assignment to a can of soda. Still, even if you choose to bring a full-size carry-on bag aboard your flight and lock in a specific seat, you will likely end up paying less than on full-service carriers. Also note that you can skip through the seat selection and have it assigned to you for free.

To book the lowest fares, you will need to book directly on FlyFrontier.com. The easiest place to start your search is on the flight sale page.
