Frontier Airlines Announces New Service to DenverFebruary 14, 2008 |
DENVER, CO. - Following the first phase of a major
realignment of its route structure announced in November 2007, Frontier Airlines
(NASDAQ: FRNT) today
announced
new regional destinations designed to optimize the financial performance
of its Embraer E-170 and Bombardier Q400 regional aircraft (operated for
Frontier by Republic Air and Lynx Aviation respectively). The new regional
markets announced today are shorter-haul markets, better suited to leveraging
the economics of the E-170 and the Q400. In conjunction with its regional
expansion, Frontier is also increasing capacity in several of its most popular
destinations as it replaces regional aircraft with mainline and increases
frequencies in time for the busy summer travel season.
Frontier is announcing several new non-stops to Rocky Mountain and regional destinations from Denver including:
Colorado Springs Municipal Airport (COS), Colorado Springs, CO beginning April 15, 2008
Hector International Airport (FAR), Fargo, ND starting May 12, 2008
Aspen/Pitkin County Airport (ASE), Aspen, CO beginning May 15, 2008
Durango-La Plata County Airport (DRO), Durango, CO beginning May 15, 2008
Walker Field Airport (GJT), Grand Junction, CO beginning May 15, 2008
Jackson Hole Airport (JAC), Jackson, WY starting May 15, 2008
Gallatin Field Airport (BZN), Bozeman, MT starting May 22, 2008
“We’re
thrilled Colorado’s hometown carrier is making it easier for travelers across
the United States to reach the Rocky Mountains and their ample tourist
attractions," said Rob Perlman, Chairman of the Colorado Tourism Office Board of
Directors. "Experiencing Colorado's world-class ski resorts, superior outdoor
recreation, historic and natural points of interest and cultural events is
easier than ever. Frontier’s expanded air service to Colorado Springs and its
natural wonders, Grand Junction and its growing agritourism, and the mountain
airports of Aspen and Durango is great news for locals and visitors alike and
illustrates Frontier’s continued commitment to improving air access throughout
Colorado," Perlman added.
