What to know about Frontier Airlines

Frontier is an ultra-low-cost carrier with minimal voluntary commitments for delays. They do not pledge hotel accommodations or ground transportation for controllable delays. Your federal refund rights still apply, but don't expect vouchers for meals or hotels unless you push hard and cite DOT rules.

Common questions

What are my rights when Frontier Airlines cancels my flight?

When Frontier Airlines cancels your flight, you are entitled to a full cash refund to your original payment method — even for non-refundable tickets. This is federal law (14 CFR Part 260). Frontier Airlines must also rebook you on the next available flight at no extra cost.

Does Frontier Airlines provide hotel and meals for delays?

For controllable delays (not weather), Frontier Airlines pledges meal vouchers. These are voluntary commitments, not federal law. The October 2026 DOT rule expanded what airlines can classify as "uncontrollable."

How do I contact Frontier Airlines about a disrupted flight?

Call Frontier Airlines at 1-801-401-9000. For complaints, email customer.relations@flyfrontier.com or DM @FlyFrontier on Twitter/X. For refunds, go to https://www.flyfrontier.com/refund.

How long does a Frontier Airlines refund take?

By federal law, Frontier Airlines must process refunds within 7 business days for credit card purchases and 20 calendar days for cash or check payments. If they don't, file a DOT complaint.
