Important Luggage CHANGE Announced for Low Fare Airline

By Madeleine Zaharchuk Leave a Comment

There are two types of airport visitors: 1.) the preparer — arrives at the airport three hours early and knows exactly where to go and what to do, and 2.) the floater — arrives at the airport much later and doesn’t mind pushing it until the last possible moment. Which type of traveler are you?

Orlando International Airport

Lately, many airports, including the Orlando International Airport, have been extra busy! Between the crowds, lines, and stress of making it through security in one piece, there’s a lot to keep track of at the airport. And now, Frontier Airlines just shared an important update that travelers need to know ahead of their next flight.

Frontier Airlines is a budget airline known for offering low-fare tickets to destinations all over the world. If you’re flying with Frontier, though, there’s a BIG change you need to know about.

Frontier shared that starting August 16th, all Frontier ticket counters will close for check-in and bag drop 60 minutes (previously 45 minutes) prior to the flight departure. Check out the announcement.

Soon, travelers will need to make sure they’re a little extra prepared and on time — those ticket counters close early, so if you plan on checking luggage, make sure to arrive before the counters close! Note that this change applies to both domestic and international flights.

Frontier Airlines suggests guests arrive at the airport at least two hours before their flight so that they can be checked in with a boarding pass in hand one hour ahead of time. Doors close to all flights 15 minutes before takeoff, so keep that in mind.
