Frontier Airlines CEO Says You’re Lazy, So He Has To Cut Costs
Spirit Airlines lost its relentless focus on costs, but Frontier Airlines still has it. Frontier is the U.S. Franke airline now and it’s headed by Spirit’s former marketing chief, Barry Biffle. Flight attendant training is done at a truck stop in Wyoming because it’s cheap.
United’s CEO Scott Kirby says airlines are overstaffed by 10%. Biffle will actually do something about it.
Frontier Airlines Eliminates Airport Check-in Counter Service Within An Hour Of Your Flight

Frontier Airlines Gate Agent Barks Erratically At Passengers While Boarding Flight From Denver

Heartbreaking: Photo Of Cancer-Stricken 4 Year Old Found Behind Aircraft Lavatory Mirror
A Frontier Airlines mechanic was working to replace a lavatory mirror on a ten year old Airbus A320 (registration N228FR) acquired in 2015 from now-defunct Monarch Airlines in Tampa back on February 20th.

Instead, anyone with a travel credit card can have elite status with Frontier Airlines.
Bleeding Frontier Airlines Passenger Lands In Wrong Country By Mistake
A regular Frontier Airlines commuter between Philadelphia and Jacksonville, Florida where she keeps a second home, arrived at the correct gate – but then went to the restroom since the gate agent confirmed she had time.
When she returned “she found the flight almost fully boarded and the jetway door about to close” so everyone was in a rush. Frontier was apparently more interested in policing the size of her carry-on bag than in making sure her boarding pass was for the correct flight. Her flight had had a gate change.

Passenger Bites Cops After Being Removed From Flight In Miami
Video shows her threatening assault at another passenger, as well as a woman who was trying to de-escalate things. It’s not clear though what triggered the incident.
When she told she was being arrested she resisted – scratching and hitting officers – and was eventually carried off the aircraft anyway. She dug her fingernails into one police officer’s arm. She kicked and “nearly” knocked an officer down a flight of stairs as police tried to put her in leg restraints.
Miami Passengers Showed Up Late For Their Flight. They Wound Up In Jail.
New video has surfaced showing Frontier Airlines passengers, who showed up too late for their flight around 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, not take the news lightly that they wouldn’t be traveling. Instead, they “physically assaulted a team member who required medical treatment” according to a report of the incident.
