When it comes to flying to Disney World, you have a lot of options.
Nearly every major U.S. airline flies directly into Orlando International Airport, so how do you choose which airline is good for you? Perhaps you book flights based on sales and discounts. Maybe you’re a fan of budget airlines for low prices. Maybe you’re a fan of just booking the cheapest flight, no matter what. Well, if comfort is important to you, one budget airline is offering a new seating option that could convince you to fly with it.
Frontier Airlines has announced a new upgraded seating option called UpFront Plus that offers seating in the first two rows of the aircraft. Even better, though, is that UpFront Plus flyers are guaranteed a window or aisle seat with extra legroom and a guaranteed empty middle seat!
So you might want to know what this all might cost. Well, as of today, you can upgrade to UpFront Plus seating for flights on or after April 10th at a special introductory rate starting at $49 per person per flight segment for travel between April 10th and April 30th. Note that you’ll have to purchase that travel by March 20th.
“Many consumers strongly prefer a seating option that offers extra space when flying,” said Barry Biffle, the CEO of Frontier Airlines. “Frontier is all about choice and giving consumers the flexibility to customize their travel to suit their individual needs and preferences. UpFront Plus is a great option for those who want expanded personal space and extra comfort.”
When you go to book your flight on Frontier, you’ll now see four seating options available: UpFront Plus (blocked middle seat, extra legroom, first two rows of aircraft, first to get inflight service), Premium (extra legroom), Preferred (seats near front of aircraft, and Standard. So if you’re looking for more comfort, Frontier might be your best choice.
