Frontier Airlines ready for takeoff.
Low-budget Frontier Airlines has added 20 new routes across the U.S. and Latin America, and that includes eight new routes out of George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH).
The additional routes are part of Frontier's goal to become the top low-fare carrier in the top 20 U.S. metro areas. What better way to do that than to add routes.
The six new routes from IAH are Baltimore, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale, Guatemala City, New Orleans, Philadelphia, San Salvador (El Salvador), and San Pedro Sula (Honduras), with fares starting at $29.
Frontier Airlines CEO Barry Biffle says that "As industry capacity adjusts, we want to ensure consumers in those markets continue to have affordable flight options."
Tickets for the flights go on sale starting September 2.
Some of the flights, including IAH to Fort Lauderdale, start in November. The rest begin in December 2025 or February 2026, including IAH to New Orleans. Some to international destinations are still pending per government approval.
