Ultra-low fare carrier Frontier Airlines will begin nonstop service from Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) to 10 new destinations in May of 2024. The new routes are in addition to service to Minneapolis, announced in late Jan. With the new routes, Frontier will serve a total of 39 destinations from PHL and operate an average 44 daily departures this summer, an increase of 47 percent versus the year prior. To celebrate, America’s Greenest Airline is offering fares as low as $19* and Premium Seat Upgrades starting at $19** on all routes operating from PHL.
“From the Midwest to the East Coast and from Maine to Florida, these new routes span much of the country and represent our continued commitment to growth from PHL,” said Barry Biffle, CEO, Frontier Airlines. “In fact, PHL will see the second largest increase in daily departures on Frontier this summer among our major operational bases.”
“We’re thrilled to make this announcement today with Frontier Airlines as it expands its summer flights out Philadelphia by 47%,” said Atif Saeed, CEO of the Department of Aviation. “The expansion shows that our post-pandemic recovery continues and these ultra low-cost fares will expand market reach and help make travel possible for many more travelers – both Philadelphians who want to explore new destinations and visitors who want to come and experience the great restaurants, amenities and events that Philadelphia has to offer.”
The expansion of service coincides with a flight attendant jobs open house. Those interested in becoming flight attendants are encouraged to attend one of three sessions being offered on Thursday, February 8, 2024, starting at 9 a.m., at Live! Casino and Hotel Philadelphia, 900 Packer Ave. Philadelphia, PA 19148 (Liberty Room). Individuals interested in attending can RSVP on Facebook or LinkedIn.

Frontier is focused on more than low fares. The carrier offers customers the ability to customize travel to their needs and budget. For example, customers can purchase options a la carte such as Premium Stretch Seating. For a low price, this Premium Economy upgrade option provides extra leg room.
The airline’s recently reimagined, industry-leading frequent flyer program, FRONTIER Miles, enables consumers to ‘Get It All For Less.’ Customers earn miles fast and get rewarded for each dollar spent on Frontier products. Miles accrue based on dollars spent with a standard 10X multiplier: $1 = 10 miles. Mileage multipliers increase at every elite level up to 20X. Elite status enables members to enjoy benefits like priority boarding, free seat selection, no change or cancel fees when changes are made seven days or more in advance of flight departure, and free bag(s) at Gold, Diamond, and Platinum levels. Like the airline, FRONTIER Miles is family friendly, and the program makes it easy for families to enjoy the rewards together, including family pooling of miles.
