Frontier Airlines announced a major expansion of service, adding 27 nonstop routes, including the new destinations of Guadalajara and Monterrey, Mexico. The airline is also significantly growing its service from Philadelphia and Raleigh-Durham. Daniel Shurz, senior vice president of commercial, said the carrier is adding to its international network with the Mexico flights from Las Vegas. He said Frontier is also significantly growing in Philadelphia and Raleigh-Durham as part of the expansion of service “as we get ready for an extremely busy spring and summer travel season.” New routes from Raleigh-Durham include Islip, N.Y.; Providence, R.I.; Syracuse, N.Y.; Indianapolis; Detroit; Cincinnati; Newburgh, N.Y.; and New Orleans. New routes from Philadelphia include Chicago Midway; Kansas City, Mo.; Cincinnati; Boston; Cleveland; and San Antonio. There are also new routes from Atlanta, Denver, Houston and Tampa. According to an announcement, the airline offers customers the ability to customize travel to their needs and budgets. For example, travelers can purchase options a la carte or in one bundle called the WORKS, which includes refundability, a carry-on bag, a checked bag, the best available seat, waived change fees and priority boarding. The carrier’s frequent flyer program, Frontier Miles, enables members to earn one mile for every mile flown.
