I am writing to formally file a complaint about a recent and deeply upsetting travel experience with Frontier Airlines that caused unnecessary emotional, physical, and financial strain on me and my ********* husband is currently deployed, and I traveled from ********* to ******* with my 1-year-old son and elderly mother to attend a funeral in his place. Our return flight was canceled without notice. When I asked about alternative flights, I was told there were none. We stepped away briefly to regroup, and when we returned, I overheard your staff offering flights to other passengers. I immediately rejoined the line, but by then all remaining options were booked. The only route offered was a long, exhausting detour through ***** getting us home at 3 a.m.Throughout this ordeal, your employees were unhelpful and, in many cases, rude. No one offered support or showed any understanding of my situation a grieving mother traveling alone with an infant and an elderly parent.I was also misled about receiving free baggage due to my husbands active-duty military status, and I was charged $100 per bag. On top of that, because the delay and rerouting caused us to run out of essentials, I had to purchase diapers, wipes, and other baby supplies at the airport at inflated prices. When I asked about compensation, I was told I could be reimbursed, but I was never provided receipts, making it impossible to file a claim.I was also unable to pump because my pumping equipment was packed in my luggage. I only had four bottles for my baby and had no access to more due to the extended and stressful travel conditions.When I called customer service, I was told all that could be offered was a voucher for an airline I no longer feel comfortable trusting.I am requesting a formal apology, reimbursement for the supplies I was forced to purchase at the airport, and compensation for the distress and mistreatment we experienced.Business Response

On February 19, 2025 I flew on Frontier Airlines from *********, ** to *******, ********. The sole purpose of this travel was for my son's hockey tournament. When we arrived in ******* my son's hockey stick did not arrive. The baggage agent instructed me to purchase a new one, save and submit the receipt, and assured me I would be reimbursed. I also missed the team transportation and meal while dealing with the lost baggage. On or around March 1st I was offered compensation in the amount of $147.86 for my airport transfer and meal but the airline refused to compensate me for the hockey stick. I respectfully requested to be reimbursed entirely and refused to accept the $147.86. Now the customer service department refuses to acknowledge my claim. I have not received anything.Please look into this matter. Thanks!Business Response

Dear ****,
We have received your correspondence as submitted to the Better Business Bureau and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
Thank you for reaching out to us and sharing your experience regarding your recent flight with Frontier Airlines. I want to sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you faced during your travel from ********* to *******, especially given the importance of the trip for your son's hockey tournament. I understand how distressing it must have been to arrive in ******* only to find that your son's hockey stick did not arrive with your baggage. I am truly sorry for the lack of communication and support you have experienced from our customer service department. This is not the level of service we strive to provide, and I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable.
I would like to clarify that, as outlined in our Contract of Carriage, we do not assume responsibility for expenses related to sporting goods unless they are rented. You can find a comprehensive list of items that are not eligible for reimbursement under the "Claim Limits and Procedures" section A, "Limitations of Liability," on our website at Low Fares Done Right | Frontier Airlines (***************************) in the legal section. Regarding the "Pure Hockey" receipt, since it is a purchase receipt rather than a rental receipt, we are unable to cover the full amount, and only the approximate rental value of the item can be reimbursed. For further details, you can visit the following link: ******************************************************************* 16. Claim Limits and Procedures. A. 1)
Please note based on the provided information, would like to submit a request for an instant payment of $XXX , which will be sent to the email address you provided (XXX). To receive your reimbursement, you will receive a separate message with a link. You will need to use your phone number (XXX) to access it, and then you can enter the credit card information where you would like the funds deposited. Please reply to this email with your confirmation so we can proceed with your instant payout. This is the maximum amount to be covered.
Please do let us know if you wish to proceed.
Please be advised you will only be reimbursed for items that were strictly necessary during the time your baggage was delayed. Some items were not covered because they fall outside our responsibility according to our Contract of Carriage (COC), such as food, hotel accommodations, transportation, entertainment services (like car rentals), toys, sports equipment (unless rented), electronic devices and accessories, luxury items, jewelry, sunglasses, bags, and medication, among others. Additionally, some items may be considered non-essential or intended for future use, which limits our ability to provide full reimbursement.
Once again, I apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment you have experienced. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we are committed to resolving this issue for you. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Warm regards,

I am writing to file a complaint against Frontier Airlines regarding the cancellation of Flight #**** scheduled on April 2, 2025, from ******* (***) to ************* (SFO). At the time of cancellation, Delta's flight to ************* departed without issue, clearly indicating that weather was not a general operational concern affecting all airlines. The crew initially informed us that the cancellation happened because the flight had been delayed so much that it was deemed too late to depart. The crew also informed us that we were entitled to receive hotel accommodations for the night and our flights would be refunded or rebooked.However, we departed and spoke to customer service who claimed the cancellation was due to uncontrollable weather and so the only options were a refund or a rebookingwith the next available itinerary involving an 11-hour layover in *******, which was completely unreasonable. The cancellation was due to Frontiers internal mismanagement, other flights to the same destination were not affected, I did not voluntarily cancel and the rebooking option provided was unreasonable. As such, I am requesting a full refund in accordance with DOT consumer protection guidelines.Business Response

Dear ******,
We have received your correspondence as submitted to the Better Business Bureau and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your experience with X** I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you encountered due to the cancellation of your flight from X** I understand how disappointing it must have been to have your travel plans disrupted, especially when other airlines were operating flights to your destination without issue. It is our goal to provide clear and accurate information, and I regret that the communication you received from our crew and customer service did not meet your expectations. Your feedback regarding the reasons for the cancellation and the rebooking options provided is invaluable, and I assure you that we will review this internally to ensure better service in the future.
Upon taking a look and further verifying, please be advised we show your flight was cancelled for uncontrollable weather reasons. I am sorry to hear that your flight was cancelled, we recognize that traveling can be stressful and that unexpected cancellations are never appreciated. We strive to get our passengers to their final destination as timely as possible, I can only assure you these are not the standards we strive to maintain. The decision to delay, divert or cancel a flight is not easy. We have a team of specialists who continually monitor our entire system and make decisions regarding irregular operations. Given the circumstances, they decide the best possible arrangement for all parties involved. It is never our intention to disappoint our customers. The creation of airline schedules is an incredibly complex process. In the course of 24 hours each plane visits multiple cities across the entire Frontier Airlines network. Due to this, there are multiple reason why a delay may occur, some being low availability of crew members, occupied gates, airplane maintenance and so forth. To be competitive in the airline industry means that we do everything possible to minimize flight disruptions. Were sorry that you were impacted by a cancellation.
We must inform that Frontier is not liable for expenses such as parking fees, hotel, etc. Our Contract of Carriage states: A. Consequential Damages Unless it is specifically stated otherwise in this Contract of Carriage, or as required by any applicable law, Frontier is not liable for any indirect, special, or consequential damages arising out of or resulting from transportation provided, delay in transportation, or any failure to provide transportation Additionally, Frontier continues to comply with the **************************** regulation which states the following about Incidental Expenses - "A customer who incurs incidental expenses such as a rental car, hotel room, or meal due to a significant delayed or cancelled flight is not entitled to a refund of the incidental expenses".

I am rejecting this response because: understand that perhaps hotel accommodation would not be provided by Frontier but the flights we had were both delayed that day and combined they were delayed over 3 hours. As per your policy "Meal or meal cash/voucher when flight delay results in passenger waiting 3 hours or more" should have been offered but this was not provided. Please advise.

I was scheduled on flight 2510 departing from ******* to ***. When boarding the plane with my mother, we noticed that we were in the same zone for seating but different rows. My mother and I have documented severe anxiety disorder and were under the impression that we would be seated together, since we booked together and sat together on the ride to ******* (Spirit Airlines). Once we noticed that the seat next to my mother was available (plane was getting ready to take off), my mom asked one flight attendant (Attendant A) if I could sit next to her and explained her anxiety. The lady commences to yell to the back of the plane She has anxiety, so we are trying to move her. Although this attendant was trying to be helpful, Flight Attendant C approached me after I mentioned that both of our tickets say Zone 1 and yelled I told you NO, where is your assigned seat? I told her my seat was in Row 27 and moved back without any argument. I told her that all I was asking for was consistency as they had allowed another passenger to change her seat. Walking to my seat, I heard her tell Flight Attendant D Oh they getting the f*** off this plane! Flight Attendant D walked towards myself and Flight Attendant C and said I was coming up because I saw there was an issue. After I continued returning to my seat, with no remark, Flight Attendant A mentioned clear for departure and Flight Attendant C yells out OH NO WE NOT. 5 minutes later, a lady walked on the plane and asked me to come with her. I went with her without any hesitation and, when I got to the front, she mentioned that we werent allowed back on the plane. My mother and I explained the confusion and noted that Flight Attendant C was nasty to quite a few passengers before us. The lady that escorted us off said that this happens often with the power trip that some flight attendants make and she is sorry this happened to us. As we exited the plane, Attendant C and D high-fived each other in front of us.Business Response

I have reviewed and I see that you were able to speak with a team member and as discussed, you were provided a refund in the amount of $XXXX back to the card ending in XXXX on April 15. Please take into consideration that a refund takes 7 business days to post to the method of payment used. After Frontier Airlines completes the refund, the bank may take a few days to post the funds to the account.
I see that as exception, you were sent a $XX voucher per passenger, however, in our effort to regain your trust and encourage you to give us another opportunity, I have voided those vouchers and as a one-time exception, I have instead issued a $XXXX voucher to be used on a future flight with Frontier Airlines. We hope this will enhance your next travel experience with us.

To Whom It May Concern, We booked a Frontier flight for Sunday, March 23, 2025 (flight #**** and return flight #****) out of ***** to *******. After being delayed, the plane ended up being cancelled. Frontier offered us a flight that left on Tuesday (2 days later) and included a 17 hour layover. We already had accommodations booked in ******, so we decided to book a Southwest flight that left Monday (one day later) and was nonstop. We have two children ages 1 and 3, so a 17 hour layover and spending two nights in a hotel wasnt an option for us. The ticketer at the counter promised us accommodations for the night due to the cancellation. She took our name, email, and confirmation number and told us to wait for an email from Frontier and the email would tell us which hotel had been booked for us in *******. After waiting two hours, an email never came. We asked the same Frontier employee when we could expect the email and she referred us to the Team Lead. He said that our hotel would not be compensated after all. Upon requesting a refund for our cancelled flight, we wrote explicit instructions that we still want our return flight home. However, the night before our flight, we tried checking in and realized Frontier ended up refunding our return flight home also, even after explicitly saying not to. So we then had to book a last minute airline ticket to get home. Our frontier tickets originally cost us $953.88. In the end, we spent $2,690, almost three times as much as we had planned on spending. We are requesting compensation for the additional cost of the airplane tickets ($1,736) and our hotel stay in ******* ($100). Sincerely,**** ******* and ***** ********Business Response

Hello *****,
We have received your correspondence as submitted to the Better Business Bureau and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
Im sorry to hear that your flight from ****** to *******, scheduled for March 23, was delayed and ultimately cancelled. I understand that the rebooking option offered two days later was not suitable for you, especially since you had already made accommodations in ******. Given that you were traveling with your children, I can see why you chose to book with another airline. Additionally, I understand that no hotel accommodation was provided despite assurances made at the counter. We recognize your request for reimbursement for your expenses, and we are here to assist you with that.
I see that you contacted us on another incident #INC-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX on which you were offered a reimbursement for your hotel stay for a maximum amount of $XXXX and as well, you were given $XXXXvoucher per passenger as one time exception.

Voucher XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX; Passenger Name : **** *******; Value : XXXX; Expiry Date : 6/20/2025
Voucher XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX; Passenger Name : ***** ********; Value : XXXX; Expiry Date : 6/20/2025
Voucher XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX; Passenger Name : ***** *******; Value : XXXX; Expiry Date : 6/20/2025
Can be applied to cover the airfare only; cannot be used towards taxes, fees, or optional services (e.g., seats, bags).
Not redeemable for cash, third-party products (e.g., rental car, hotels, insurance), and cannot be used for group bookings.
Not transferable and may only be redeemed in the passengers name to whom it was issued.

I booked a roundtrip ticket for myself and my brothers which included a layover going both ways. We flew from ***** to ********* on March 25 with a layover on ******* and returned from ********* to ***** on March 30 with a Denver layover. Mind you I boarded a total of FOUR planes for one trip. How is it that I board 3 flights with the exact same bag packed with the same items but get charged a 100 bag fee on my last layover? I literally flew from ********* to ****** with my bag and then was charged a fee t fly from ****** back to *****. Your flight attendants are rude and driven by the bag policy to fatten their own pockets with rewards for forcing your customers to pay all of these extra fees. Its bad enough this trip was to attend a funeral and who wants to debate with your flight attendants about a tiny strap on the side of my small personal bag which I use to fly with you all of the time with no issues. It's bad enough the only flights that were available had long layovers. I would hope you would do the right thing and refund for the bags. It's bad enough I paid ****** for flights that had me on layovers for half of the day. This is truly disappointing how you are beginning to treat your customers. I am hoping for a refund because my bag fits and it always has.Business Response

Hello Khamani,
We have received your correspondence as submitted to the Better Business Bureau and appreciate the opportunity to respond regarding your recent travel experience with us on March 30th, 2025. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you encountered during your trip, especially given the circumstances surrounding your travel.
We understand how important it is for our customers to have a smooth and hassle-free journey, and we regret that our baggage policy caused you additional stress during a difficult time. It is our goal to provide excellent service, and we are sorry to hear that our team did not meet your expectations.
Regarding the baggage fee you were charged on your return flight, we appreciate your feedback and will review this matter internally to ensure that our policies are applied consistently and fairly. We understand that you have flown with us before without issue, and we are committed to addressing your concerns.
In a friendly context, all airports have the same luggage sizers for the downstairs and upstairs floors from check in and gates, and because passengers occasionally purchase items on the way to the gate, adding weight to their personal bags after checking in the sizer's downstairs, certain changes will be required.
We provide up to three announcements at the gate requesting travelers to verify their bags against luggage size. If the dimensions of the personal bag exceed the limit, it must be deemed a carry-on and charged as such. We provide recommendations on spot in paying for luggage online in order to save money overpaying at the gate. Furthermore, we show "what fits" and "what doesn't" in real time. Even up to 10 minutes before departure, our personnel will allow passengers to pay online. If it's too late by then, we'll have to charge the standard gate price for the personal baggage that exceeds the specifications as a carry-on if the bag doesn't fit correctly in the sizer.
The airport defines the sizes for carry-on and personal belongings, and the dimensions vary between airport stations, and the airport employees will advance with the appropriate approach and application costs at the time of the gate check based on their discretion. For each personal bag that exceeded the dimensions and was categorized as a carry-on rather than a personal bag, you were charged $XXXX.
To assist you further, we will refund for the baggage fee you incurred. We have refunded the following amount and details displayed below:
Last 4 digits of card:XXXX
Amount: $XXXX
Type: MasterCard
Date refund was issued: 04/16/2025.
Please allow us 7 business days for the airline to process the refund. After Frontier Airlines completes the refund, the bank will take a few days to post the funds to the account.
Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience you experienced and appreciate your understanding. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, and we hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Kindly,
***.
