Frontier Airlines change flight policy is relatively flexible because it allows you to modify your flight time or date. However, as your travel date draws closer, the cost of making a flight change goes up — but you can still make a last-minute change until your check-in deadline.
 

You can change your flight either through the airline’s website/mobile app or contact the customer service team. Keep in mind that Frontier change flight fee may apply depending on the fare type and how far in advance you make the change. So do review the specific terms and conditions of your ticket before making any modifications.

Tips for flights with border change

If you want to change Frontier flights, the following tips can help make the process easier —

  • You should be aware of Frontier’s flight change policy and associated charges.
  • WORKS packages allow free changes whereas standard rates may incur a charge (unless they qualify for a change fee waiver).
  • To retain the value of your ticket, you must exchange or cancel it before departure. If you do not show up for your flight, you will lose the value of your ticket and there will be no residual value.
  • If you already have a flight/travel credit with Frontier Airlines, you can book your new flight online by choosing Frontier Credit on the checkout page and applying your credit. Alternatively, you can book by phone.

When contacting Frontier Always through the website or by phone

  • Please have your reservation details at hand. Having your confirmation number and your new desired flight dates and times will help speed up the process.
  • Check alternative available flights before requesting a change. This way, you can have some backup options in case your preferred flight is not available.

Frontier Flight change Policy

You can change your Frontier flight for free (i.e. without paying the Frontier flight change fee):

  • If you change 60+ days before departure or up to 24 hours after purchasing your ticket for a flight that departs 7 or more days later.
  • If you have purchased the WORKS package or the Flight Flexibility option, you can change your flight ticket without penalty.
  • If Frontier cancels your flight and the alternative flight they offer doesn’t suit you, you can make changes to your itinerary at no additional charge.
  • If your Frontier flight is rescheduled and the new flight does not suit you, you can make changes to your itinerary without being charged as long as you do not change your route or class of travel.
  • If you are suddenly called for jury duty or receive military orders, you can make changes to your itinerary (or cancel it) without being charged.
  • If you become seriously ill (or a family member becomes ill/die) and you have documentary evidence to prove it and Frontier Airlines agrees, you can make changes to your flight itinerary without being charged.

Note : You must change your itinerary before your flight check-in closes, which is at least 45 minutes before departure for most flights within the US (domestic flights) and at least 60 minutes before departure for most international flights. Additionally, free flight changes are subject to availability and certain restrictions may apply.

    (Flight details will appear)
    Select your flight and change it following the instructions

Frontier Airlines Same-Day Flight Changes

If you are changing your ticket on the travel date, you have the following 2 options:

Standby trip

  • If you are a Frontier Miles Elite member and qualify for standby travel, you can travel on a flight that departs before or after your travel date (subject to seat availability) at no additional charge.
  • However, you will need to follow your original itinerary. This means that if your original itinerary was a direct flight, you cannot add a connecting flight to your new itinerary and vice versa.
  • You can also change your itinerary at the ticket counter or departure gate at your airport.
  • The only risk involved in flying standby is that if you are unable to travel on the desired flight and miss your original flight, you will have to purchase a new ticket; Frontier will not provide any additional transportation.
  • Frontier Airlines will determine the boarding order for standby flights.
    Flight changes confirmed the same day
  • You also have the option to change to a flight that leaves earlier or later on the same day of travel. This is free for Frontier Miles Elite members and WORKS ticket holders, but charged for everyone else.

Frontier Flight Change refund Policy

If your Frontier flight changes (or cancels) and you decide not to travel with the alternative options offered to you:

  • You will receive an email with more information about your options.
    You will be refunded the fare and any optional services you purchased (including seat assignments and baggage charges).
  • You must complete Frontier’s online refund request form to receive a refund.
  • All flight changes and cancellations will be subject to the fare conditions of your ticket and the Frontier Contract of Carriage.

In accordance with Frontier’s flight change policy, you can make changes to your airline ticket:

  • Free (without paying a flight change fee) if you change:
    60 or more days before departure, or
  • Up to 24 hours after booking for a flight departing at least 7 days later
