Earlier this month, Frontier celebrated turning 28 years old by allowing flyers to book round-trip flights up to 75% off. If you missed out on the fun, don't despair, because the airline is back with an end-of-the-summer sale, with the chance to book half-price, round-trip flights through the fall.
Book by the end of today, for travel by Nov. 2, 2022, to save up to 50% on domestic, round-trip flights by using the code JAWS. Round-trip flights for select routes are currently available starting at $38.

For example, you can book this nonstop flight from Chicago to Denver in mid-August for just less than $124 round trip.
Although this flight is not quite half-off the non-sale price, you would still save nearly $50 by using the promo code since the price for this same flight without the promo code is $171.
In searching for this deal, remember that the discount code is only valid for travel on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday, starting Aug. 16 through Nov. 2, 2022. The code cannot be used for travel on Aug. 31; Sept. 3, 6, 7; or Oct. 8, 15, 18, 19, and certain routes are excluded.
The sale advertises flights that are 50% off, but I did not find any routes that were half-price. Still, you can find discounted routes as illustrated.
Lastly, remember that the reflected fare prices are for only the fare itself, so factor in an extra $60 to $65 to bring a full-sized carry-on bag and an additional $55 to $60 to add a checked bag to your reservation at the time of booking. Frontier charges extra for anything more than a personal item that can fit under the seat in front of you. Read more about Frontier baggage fees here.
