Frontier to add Mexican route
Discount carrier Frontier Airlines has received approval from the U.S. Department of Transportation to expand its Mexico service with a non-stop route to the Mexican resort of Acapulco from its hub in Denver.
Frontier plans to offer two flights per week, with service beginning on December 18, 2005.
Acapulco is now the seventh Mexican destination served by Frontier from Denver. The other six destinations are Cabo San Lucas, Cancun, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo, and Cozumel.
The airline is offering a discount promotional airfare of $124 each way from Denver. From Chicago and Atlanta tickets can be purchased for $174 and $199, respectively.
To obtain the cheap airfares customers must book before September 23, and travel must take place between December 18, 2005 and April 16, 2006.
John Happ, Frontier's senior vice president of marketing and planning, believes the route solidifies the airline's position as the premier carrier for cheap flights between Mexico and the United States.
