Frontier Airlines - Scammers!
The absolute worst experience. They charged a hidden fee for carry ons... Both ways! We bought the ticket then once we were in line they said we had to pay 99 each for the luggage. We had no choice... So added the cost to our round trip ticket price. Then they charged us again to get home with the same luggage! The flight leaving was an hour late... So we...

When I was on one of their flights they announced that you could get 60,000 miles if you applied for a credit card. I was given the brochure an application by a flight attendant. Here's what the brochure says: "Earn 60,000 Travel Miles after your first purchase, less credits, returns and adjustments and paying the annual fee in full. Both within the first...

Carry on double charged
August 4, Buffalo to Philadelphia, My first trip with frontier and my last one. I learned that Frontier is a credit card company who also flies planes. This experience was both predatory and abusive. My husband forgot his carry on and since they board first the paying customers, I was left behind with his carry on that I paid for when booking and though...
Read full review of Frontier Airlines and 1 commentGrossly Overcharged for an overweight bag
On 7/29/2024 I was on Frontier flight 2989 flying from Atlanta back to Detroit. My flight confirmation number was VE6G9J. When I arrived at the self-check in the screen showed that there was a 40 lb weight limit, and for some reason it made me go see a ticket agent. When I checked my bag in at the ticket counter the agent said I was 5 lbs over the limit and charged me $179 to get my bag on the flight. Being charged $179 for an extra 5 lbs is grossly excessive, and extremely unfair because I would not have been able to board my flight if I didn't have the funds available at the time. The ticket agent was also rude & discourteous. I'm looking for an amicable solution; either financial reimbursement or cost taken off of a future flight.

Damaged baggage claim policy
On January 8th we took off on our flight home. After we landed we went to collect our checked bad but found that it had one wheel missing, one broken, and likely one that was damaged. We as inexperienced college students knew nothing about following established grievance policy and so lugged our overweight suitcase home. Within the next few days we started...

Excessive complaint ratio
This company has an excessive complaint ratio, and they just stole $130 from me for a refundable ticket. I purchased the refundable option, and they changed it to nonrefundable. Reported them to the BBB. Stay away, pay more money for a better airline. They don't even have a customer service phone line. Make sure you do your research, it is a shame we live in a world like this.
Claimed loss: $130
Desired outcome: Reported to the BBB.

Frontier Airlines takes advantage of people by advertising you are able to fly whenever, wherever, as many times as you'd like with the GoWild Passes as long as it's not during blackout dates and reservations are made 24 hours before. This is a lie and false advertisement! Every time I tried to book a ticket to go anywhere, their system would not allow me...

Flight service/customer service
Let me begin by saying I’ve been flying nearly weekly for over 35 years and this experience with Frontier Airlines ranks at the top of poor encounters with travel. The level of customer service failed at every step of the way. I have been in contact with Frontier Customer Service through e-mail since they report they have no ability to discuss by phone...

Read full review of Frontier AirlinesUnable to cancel reservations
I've been trying to cancel my reservation #K6TBJL with Frontier and request a return of my requent flyer miles. I cannot do it through CHAT as they tell me their system is 'Utterly' unavailable and I should try again. How can you run a business and block your customers from being able to communicate with you when a Chat Call cannot resolve it.
HELP!
Desired outcome: Cancel booking and return my frequent flyer miles
$399.00 flight pass
I purchased a pass for myself and one for my wife. I tried several times to book flights... All to no avail. I did not book a flight, I did not take a flight and I was unable to reach anyone on the phone. I do not have the ability to text.
I disputed/cancelled the charges on the amex cards. Now there is another two charges; one for me and one for my wife.
We received no benefit from the service. I do not want to pay the nearly $800 charge, have been unable to book a flight or to fly.

Inability to get a refund
I purchased a flight on Frontier Airlines on 5/15/23 (J8F7WI), Frontier cancelled the flight and stated a refund was issued for 185.96 cc ending in 5999.

I have spoken to them since flight was cancelled attempting to find out where they issued to name on credit card or what ever information they had about
CC so I could attempt to
find out where refund was
Issued, I have not received
any assistance from Frontier
To resolve this.
Desired outcome: Refund of 185.96
Itinerary flight changes
Dear Frontier Airlines, I am writing to express my disappointment with the recent changes to my flight itinerary. I had booked a flight to Orlando arriving on October 11 to pick up my father-in-law who is traveling from Brazil. He is 78 years old and does not speak English, so it is essential that I am there to meet him at the airport. Unfortunately, my...
Read full review of Frontier AirlinesI want my money back and compensation
I booked a flight with frontier. When I got to the counter, there were a bunch of people in line waiting to check in luggage etc. I was in line for over an hour with only 2 gals working the desk. The ladies working the desk said frontier over sold the flight and I was unable to board. I am having trouble getting a refund or getting a hold of a live agent to assist me with the process. I had to buy a $400 ticket to get home to oregon from san diego. I am super frustrated. Can someone help me?
Cancel flight and it refund due to contracting covid.
Attempted to cancel flight of Sept. 9 on Friday Sept 8 (TTM to TPA confirmation cos 197H5S) but system indicated my confirmation code could not be found and I attempted to do so many times But with the same result So since I was unable to cancel before flight I tried to obtain a refund but system stated that covid was not a reason for refund of missed flight. Frontier Airlines is willing to expose all of the passengers and flight crew to vivid instead of doing the right and proper outcome. I believe if I had the opportunity to speak with a live person instead of a chat not we would have been able to resolve issue.
Desired outcome: Refund
Frontier airlines lost my baggage
On August 31, 2023, I was on a flight # 662 (Frontier Airlines) from San Francisco to Denver. Before boarding, I paid an additional fee of $69 to take my carry-on luggage aboard with me. I had arrived to the airport 2 hours before departure. There was considerable chaos at the check-in counter. Seeing as the flight time drew closer, I asked the ticket agent...
Read full review of Frontier Airlines and 1 commentGo wild pass
No live customer service support - I have chatted with (4) specialist - 3 hours and nothing was resolved - I purchased (2) go wild winter passes - they do not show up on my profile - I waited for the dates to begin to check again - just to make sure - nothing - I was told to log out and change my password - 6 requests with temporary password and the system is now down for 24 - 48 hours. 22 to 24 hour flights - no refund aloud - must be within 24 hours of purchasing the pass! I have lost $600!
Desired outcome: I want a REFUND
Charged without confirmation and use of flight.
On June 14, 2023 I tried booking with Frontier and your system kicked me out and took payment without a confirmation. I then disputed this with Frontier and my bank to get my $416.96 back and now you took it from my Chase bank account. I did not use or purchase this flight plan as you kicked it out and still took my money. Please return my $416.96 before legal action is taken. This was disputed June 14th, 2023. Again this flight never happened because your system never completed the transaction. There is not any confirmation number and or tracking number.
Desired outcome: Return my $416.96 to my account.
