Sample flights

This deal is available on nonstop and connecting flights across the Frontier network on select dates and routes.

For example, we found a one-way flight between George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and Orlando International Airport (MCO) for the sale's listed starting price of 2,500 miles plus the mandatory $5.60 security fee.

If you want to fly a little farther south, we also found a one-way flight from Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) for only 5,000 miles plus $49.65 in taxes and fees. If you were to book this same flight after the sale window, you could pay as much as 25,000 miles.
