$32 one way airfare deal

[ColoWyo]

I just found out they kill you in bags!!! I said screw it! $50 for round trip carry on and $40 for round trip check in! Plus tax and flight you might as well buy a ticket with southwest in advance if you're flying with guns like I had planned...

Im im not saying they are bad prices and you can always buy tickets now and bags later... Just saying add $90 for the bags if you carry on and check

Even with the bag fees, Frontier is almost always cheaper than Southworst. They take firearms as well. Compare prices.

Not to mention stuff like this:

But in all honesty, I am kinda partial to Frontier.

Plus, southwest has a lot higher percentage of navy pilots, which means you are 3 times more likely to get a back injury on landing.

and realistically, you want to fly on a plane with a cool/cute animal on the tail, not some airplane that has the cheapest airplane paint colors they make.

im kinda partial to frontier too!

I will be flying frontier from now on. I have had good experiences with them in the past, but I thought that I would save a few bucks and try Spirit. Did not save any money, arrived home late, pissed off and generally just happy that I survived.

You do know that Frontier is now owned by Spirit airlines and is slowly turning into them.

Not quite accurate.

Frontier was purchased about 9 months ago by a private equity group called Indigo Partners.

Indigo Partners is the same company who purchased Spirit Airlines several years ago. They transformed Spirit into what it is today and then sold Spirit to the general public via an Initial Public Offering (IPO). Indigo retained a large percentage of ownership in Spirit up until about 11 months ago when they sold their shares. It was basically a "fix-and-flip"--only with an airline.

The common assumption is that Indigo Partners will apply the same or a similar formula to Frontier Airlines. This probably explains why we're seeing an unbundling of services with separate pricing for everything they can think of.

So no, Spirit doesn't own Frontier.

The best was flying Allegiant out of the Loveland Fort Collins airport.
Dirt cheap to Vegas and Arizona. Cheap front door parking and zero security line or bullshit.
