For travelers looking to escape the sky-high travel airfares of summer, a low-cost carrier has a new monthly flight pass that might be a magic ticket. Frontier Airlines has announced a new monthly flight pass where passengers can travel an unlimited amount of flights for $149 a month. Utilizing the pass is subject to seat availability and additional conditions. Flights booked with the pass are confirmed the day before travel domestically, and ten days before travel for international flights, according to the airline.
The airline says that seats designated for monthly pass-holders are limited on each flight, and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Early purchasers of the monthly flight pass will save $99 on the enrollment fee, which will be waived from now through August 7. After August 7, the total for a monthly flight pass will be $248. In addition to the monthly fee, and future enrollment fees, there is a small charge and taxes to utilize the pass when booking. “For each flight, pass holders pay $0.01 in airfare plus applicable taxes, fees and charges at the time of booking,” Frontier Airlines shares about the flight pass.
