Smart Hacks That'll Get Your Frontier Baggage Fees Waived
Frontier Airlines specializes in being affordable. What they lack in pizazz, they more than make up for in reliability. That said, their baggage fees can still be a bit of an annoyance, especially with how inconsistent and hefty they are at times. Here's how you can use DoNotPay to reduce the you might pay when you fly with them.
Overview of Frontier Airlines Fees
Frontier does not consistently price its . Depending on how you book your flight, when you check your bags, what kind of bags you have, where you're flying to and from, and a myriad of other factors, how much you pay in fees can change dramatically. While it's not a 100% guarantee, these are some prices you can expect to pay:
Carry-on Bags | Frontier defines carry-on bags/personal items as small bags that can be stowed under your seat or in the overhead bins. The best price you can expect for these types of bags is between $35 to $45. |
Checked Bags | A bag measuring under 62 linear inches and under 50 lbs will need to be checked if it's not a carry-on. The best price to expect for these would be around $40 for the first bag, $50 for the second bag, and $85 for the third bag, as well as any additional bags you check. |
Oversized Bags | Bags that exceed the dimensions of normally checked bags will be liable to an extra $75 fee. Additionally, bags weighing more than 100 lbs and measuring over 110 linear inches cannot be checked. |
Reduce Frontier Baggage Fees on Your Own
If you're tired of paying the fees associated with Frontier, you'll be pleased to know you do have options for reducing these fees. However, it's not always easy or successful when doing it yourself. This is one reason why using DoNoPay is a good idea, as we work hard to make sure your efforts won't be wasted. If you'd like to take a crack at it on your own first, though, you can try some of these methods:
-
Booking Early
As alluded to before, the best prices on baggage fees depend heavily on how you book your flight. Frontier offers passengers the option to pre-check their bags when they book a flight online, as well as at multiple points before checking in person. Basically, the earlier you check your bags, the less you have to pay.
-
Rewards Points
While they can't actually lower your fees, using certain credit cards or joining rewards programs can make them stingless. Depending on what you're signed up for, you could be getting back a decent chunk of what you paid in fees as rewards or cash-back.
-
Asking
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. While we can't say this is a foolproof strategy, just asking for a lower rate might get you something. Don't be a menace to staff, of course, but there's nothing wrong with seeing if they might be willing to lower the fees for you.
