Frontier Airlines Applies for Three New Routes to Mexico

Frontier Airlines said Tuesday it is seeking federal approval to expand its service to Mexico with a new flight to Cozumel and two additional flights to Puerto Vallarta.

If the Transportation Department approves, service will begin in November, Frontier said in a statement.

The low-cost carrier´s plan calls for a nonstop flight between Denver and Cozumel, between Kansas City and Puerto Vallarta, and between Salt Lake City and Puerto Vallarta. The service would be three times a week in each case.

Based in Denver, Frontier serves 48 destinations in 25 states and Mexico from its hub at Denver International Airport.

This carrier has registered a fast-paced expansion in fourteen years of operations. It currently holds a payroll of 1,500 employees and a fleet of 44 jetliners flying to 43 cities in the United States and Mexico.
