Frontier is known for insanely low fares and has also become synonymous with crazy deals, including $9 flights and its Kids Fly Free promotion. However, Frontier might be offering the airline's craziest and most lucrative promotion yet: Today only, members of the airline's discount club, Discount Den, can travel with their friends for the price of a single ticket. Here's how.

First, you must join Frontier's Discount Den club, the airline's discount program. It costs $60 annually and allows members to receive discounts on everyday airfare and take advantage of exclusive promotions like Kids Fly Free and today's Friends Fly Free promotions. A Discount Den membership is likely a worthwhile investment even for travelers who rarely fly Frontier.

Once you've signed up and paid the annual fee, head to Frontier's homepage and select from cities and dates included in this promotion. Once you've found a flight that fits your needs, scroll to the "Promo Code" box and include the code "FLYFREE." If you do not include this promo code, even if you are a member of the Discount Den program, you will not receive the second passenger's ticket free of charge.

Finally, confirm all of the information and click through to find matching flights. Travelers must select the Den Deals fare. Finish by selecting any extras like seat assignments and bags.

If you have completed the booking process correctly, your total will reflect the price of a single ticket. After confirming the fare, continue with payment information and book your flights.

Frontier is often given a bad rap due to the airline's ultra-low-cost carrier status. Travelers wishing to select a seat, bring on a carry-on bag or enjoy something as basic as a soft drink on board will be required to pay a fee. That aside, Frontier offers unbeatable ticket prices to a variety of leisure and business markets. Frontier also offers one of the more lucrative discount club programs.
