The first Eagle-County-bound flight will take off from Denver International Airport on Dec. 19, marking the first time Frontier has landed in the county, according to a news release from the airline.
Eagle County Regional Airport currently boasts largely seasonal flights from Alaska Airlines, Delta, United, and American Airlines. United’s flight between DIA and Eagle County and American Airlines’ flight between Dallas, Texas and Eagle County are the only two flights offered year-round on the regional airport’s roster.
“Whether the ideal getaway is lounging under a palm tree in California or enjoying the world-class skiing of the Rockies, our new service will connect consumers in the Denver area and beyond with travel options that make it easy and affordable to get there,” Frontier Airlines spokesperson Josh Flyr said in the release.
To celebrate the two new routes, Frontier is offering low, introductory fares, airline officials said in the release. Flights between Denver and Eagle County will start at $99 for people booking travel between Dec. 12 and Feb. 25, 2025.
However, the introductory fares do not apply to a few blackout periods, including Dec. 21 to Dec. 31, Jan. 1 to Jan. 7, Feb. 13 to Feb. 14 and Feb. 16 to Feb. 17, according to Frontier’s news release.
With this new Colorado destination and another Frontier route to be added between DIA and Palm Springs International Airport, Frontier will officially serve 65 destinations from Denver.
