Travelers can now take advantage of significant savings on one of the most costly elements of a vacation thanks to Frontier Airlines’ latest promotion. The Denver-based carrier has introduced the “Save Now” sale, offering up to a 100% discount on base fares.
Promotional Offer Details
Under the “Save Now” promotion, travelers can receive a 100% discount on the base fare of their ticket by using the promotional code SAVENOW at checkout. This discount applies to the ticket price before government taxes and carrier fees are added, meaning while the base fare may be free, additional costs still apply.
Membership Benefits and Discounts
The full 100% base fare discount is available exclusively to members of Frontier’s Discount Den program, which costs $59.99 per year. This membership includes additional benefits such as free flights for children and reduced rates on bags. Travelers who are not members of Discount Den will receive a 50% discount on their base fare.
Promotion Conditions and Exclusions
The “Save Now” sale is valid until 11:59 PM EST on August 22, 2024, and is applicable for travel through October 31, 2024. However, there are specific conditions: tickets must be purchased at least seven days in advance, and the promotion is not valid on popular holiday weekends, including Labor Day. Additionally, the sale does not apply to travel on Fridays or Sundays.
Example of Potential Savings
For instance, non-members booking a round-trip flight from Los Angeles to Orlando for travel between September 12-18 would pay $16.38 in base fare, reflecting a 50% discount. However, travelers are still responsible for an additional $116 in government taxes and carrier-imposed fees. Discount Den members would only need to cover these additional costs.
Frontier’s Unbundled Pricing Model
Frontier Airlines is known for its low fares and unbundled pricing approach. This model separates the cost of the flight from additional services such as seat assignments, carry-on bags, and checked luggage, which incur extra charges during the booking process.
Recent Policy Updates
In a move toward greater customer satisfaction, Frontier has recently removed most change and cancellation fees, aligning with its goal to enhance the traveler experience.
With the “Save Now” promotion, Frontier Airlines continues to provide cost-effective travel options, making it an attractive choice for those planning late summer or fall getaways.
