Few things get frequent flyers more excited than an all-you-can-fly pass. In theory, it's the holy grail of a travel buffet of flight options.
For the last year, Frontier Airlines has offered a variety of all-you-can-fly passes.
There were seasonal passes for $299 and then monthly passes that sometimes offered the first month free to passengers, excluding the enrollment fee. And now, Frontier has just announced its 2024-2025 annual all-you-can-fly pass with a Black Friday discount.

As part of a Black Friday special, Frontier announced a yearlong annual flight pass valid from May 1, 2024, to April 30, 2025. This pass is priced at $499 and, as part of the special for those purchased by Nov. 28, it will come with Frontier Silver elite status, which will be awarded in early 2024. Silver is a newly announced status tier for Frontier, and it will confer standard seat selection at booking for the member with status.
Frontier's monthly pass allows customers to commit to travel windows 30 days at a time.
There's an enrollment fee of $99 for the first month. After the first month, customers pay $149 monthly for unlimited travel for 30 days from the date of purchase. At the end of 30 days, the pass will automatically renew unless canceled. The booking rules match those for other passes (can be confirmed the day before a domestic flight or 10 days before an international one), and it will cost $0.01 in airfare plus taxes and fees. Fees for bags and seat assignments are extra, adding costs for anyone not traveling light.
As long as you trust yourself to cancel in time to not be charged for a month of flying you don't want (before midnight Mountain time on the final valid date of travel on the pass), this may be the best way to try out Frontier's subscription model for discounted flying.

There are two other versions of Frontier's GoWild! Pass — an annual pass and a fall and winter pass. Historically, Frontier offered introductory pricing for a limited time after launching new versions of the all-you-can-fly pass. After the first year or season(s), the pass will automatically renew at the regular (much higher) price unless you cancel.
Here are the current prices and dates of use for all passes:
TPG's Kristy Tolley had a Summer Pass in 2023. In her experience, once you pay for the pass itself, it'll still cost you some cash each time you use it for flights at a rate starting at $13 to $15 per domestic nonstop flight, with connecting itineraries costing upward of $30 and international trips going as high as $150 per round trip.
