"airline is a joke"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Albuquerque to Salt Lake City via Denver. Booked 2 leg flight to Salt Lake City a month ago. Three hours prior to departure, airline alerts me the first leg is delayed five hours. Call customer service and all flights the following day are booked so my options are to cancel flight or sleep in DIA from 3:30AM Friday until mid morning saturday. I cancel flight and abandon trip, losing my hotel accommodations. The moment I cancel my phone notifies me the flight is now only 37 minutes delayed. I call back and wait another 20 minutesnon hold and pay to get back on the flight. This time they charge me $40 dollars more and give me worse seats. I get to the gate in boarding group 1 per my new ticket, and I’m not on the manifest list. I am then the last to board the plane as they figure out their software error. I fly to DIA with the carry on I’ve used for the last 300 flights no issue on any airline. At the connecting gate to SLC, rude gate agent tells me it’s too big (first time ever). I show him it fits in the stupid sizing tester. He still says I must check it. This airline just exists to bulk low income people. It isn’t even cheaper than others once you pay the baggage and other fees for things that just come with service on other airlines. Worst seats and service, worst website. Impossible to check in without 9000 confusing up-selling pop ups in your way. I will make this mistake only once. This airline is a joke.

"waste of my time"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Oklahoma City to Los Angeles. I will never fly Frontier again. And be very careful booking flights on Expedia or any other travel site. Customers are penalized for not booking directly thru Frontier. I had other airlines I could have chosen but I selected the Frontier flight because it was the “best” price. Turns out I had to pay substantially higher baggage fees because I booked with Expedia. So my great fare with Expedia will be around $100 more than the cost of the ticket. I have no choice since it is a non refundable ticket, so I’m screwed, thank goodness my return flight is with American Airlines, their baggage fees are much more reasonable and the same no matter where you book your flight. And good luck talking to anyone at Frontier, it took me almost an hour on the phone to get a human being and I’m very tech savvy. When I did get a human to speak with, all I got was an obviously scripted speech, waste of my time.

"still don’t have our luggage"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Our flight from TTN to ORD (connection) was delayed for 4 hours. Once we got to ORD, we boarded the same exact plane to head to ELP. We arrived ELP at 2.30am MT. We only had 1 checked bag and it did not make it to ELP. So I called customer service to file a claim and they said they did not know where our luggage was and that I would have to wait 4-6hrs before someone called. So we waited. Nobody called. So I called again, and they said the same thing that they could not track our luggage and did not know where it was. They said they would reimburse us for anything we buy since we had no clothes, nothing. Further, they said someone will keep me updated in 24hrs. The next day, still nothing. I call again and the same thing happens. It is day 3 here in ELP and we still don’t have our luggage. Don’t fly Frontier.

"delayed both ways"

(United States)

Trip Verified | First flight on Frontier from Savannah to Philadelphia. I paid next to nothing, but my trip has been delayed both ways by 1 hr 30 mins. Unbelievable! The plane was brand new and clean but the airline attendants were miserable. No hello or anything. If you are needing to get from point A to B quickly or at specific time do not fly Frontier.

"terrible customer service"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Flew Frontier Airlines from Tampa to Islip, New York. Worst airline ever. They stopped my friend and I from boarding the flight before it was even supposed to board, terrible customer service. All the staff were rude and not helpful, wasted our money for nothing.

"I will never fly Frontier again."

(United States)

Trip Verified | Chicago to Las Vegas. My original flight was to depart ORD at 9:50 PM and arrive LAS at 11:40 PM. I arrived 2 hours early, but shuffled around after the barcode would not populate on my phone and the agent was on a personal that caused me to miss my flight. Frontier waived the $99 fee to change my schedule and put me on the next flight at 11 AM with a 6 hour layover in Colorado and charged me an additional $45 for my duffle bag! When I got to LAS, they couldn’t find my luggage because it was still in Chicago! I have been calling them all night to tell them where to deliver my luggage but couldn’t get through until 4 hours later after I find a claim. FA said everyone left for the day after they called. My luggage is still at the airport and it’ll take up to 6 hours before it’s delivered. I will never fly Frontier again.

"Never utilize Frontier"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Trenton to Nashville. Never utilize Frontier Airlines! Their round trip, nonstop, air fare appears deliciously affordable. I was charged over $100 for a small carry that contained two outfits. I literally just stepped off a flight utilizing this airline. I have made it a priority to ensure my first item following my arrival is to warn all those who may be hopelessly attracted to this airline having faith in its affordability. Beware the old adage, "if it's to good to be true, it is" holds true with this airline.

"has been very poor"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Atlanta to Ontario via Austin. Flight was canceled at the connection point. (understandable and happens). However the manner that this has been dealt with has been very poor. They could not get us rebooked for 2 days latter so took refund to book on a different airline. Was told at the gate that refund would be for the entire ticket price and could book tickets on another carrier. Few days later refund comes in and the amount is for less than 1/5 of the total cost. Customer service informed us that there was no way she could fix and to try again latter.

"First and last time"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Flew Portland Oregon to Minneapolis. Stewardess was very unprofessional and made rude comments. On the way back the flight was 3 hours late and so we missed our connecting flight. I will now have a 8 hour layover in Denver. Missing work, additional day of parking and dog boarding. I expressed my additional costs and all they said was sorry. The ticket agents would not check our bag free, corporate is strict about not doing that he said. I guess this happens a lot if it is now a policy. First and last time I fly Frontier Airlines.

"Offered zero compensations"

(United States)

Not Verified | Tulsa to Denver. The worst airline. Was so excited to have Frontier Airlines in Tulsa because of the cheap one way flights but you know what they say, you get what you pay for. Thursday night we had a 5 hour delay. Today, we had a 3 hour delay and when we finally got to our destination we had to sit on the airplane for at least 30 minutes because someone else was at our gate. Offered zero compensations. No vouchers, drinks, snacks.
