Frontier Airlines, Inc.

Denver, CO United States

 

Company Description

Faster than covered wagons, Frontier Airlines' planes part the clouds and fly the skies above the Rockies and beyond. The company operates as a scheduled passenger air carrier from hubs at Denver International and Milwaukee's General Mitchell International Airport. The airline maintains a fleet of about 60 Airbus 318/319/320 jets with onboard amenities that include satellite, and roughly 20 Embraer E170/190 jet aircraft. Along with subsidiary Lynx Aviation, it serves about 80 destinations in the US west of the Mississippi, and, less so, Mexico and Costa Rica. In 2008, Frontier Airlines entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. It emerged in 2009 after it was acquired by Republic Airways for about $109 million.
