carry-on baggage

You can take it with you… if you follow these guidelines…

Don’t get carried away with your carry-on baggage. You’ll be sharing the plane with others, so please understand that we allow each passenger one carry-on bag and one personal item, such as a briefcase, purse or laptop computer. All baggage is subject to inspection by airport security and our personnel. Each passenger must have his or her name and contact information on each carry-on item.

We’re bound by some legal rules, as stated by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), “Prohibited items are weapons, explosives, incendiaries, and include items that are seemingly harmless but may be used as weapons – the so-called ‘dual use’ items. You may not bring these items to security checkpoints without authorization.” Click here to review a list of permitted and prohibited items which may be included in carry-on baggage, provided by the TSA.

Now get out your measuring tape and scale. We allow each passenger to board with one piece of carry-on baggage. Your carry-on bag’s dimensions can’t exceed 49 linear inches with maximum dimensions of 9.5″ height + 15.5″ width + 24″ length and the bag can’t weigh more than 35 pounds. Your carry-on bag must fit underneath the seat or in an enclosed overhead bin.

We try to be as flexible and accommodating as possible, but keep in mind these policies help us make sure there’s enough room for everyone and their items on the plane. Our main concern is the comfort and safety of our passengers. We thank you for your understanding.

In addition to the one carry-on bag allowance, the following personal articles may be carried on the aircraft:

• Handbag or pocketbook
• Coat or wrap
• Umbrella or walking stick
• Camera or binoculars
• Briefcase or laptop computer case
• Canes, crutches, braces or other assistive devices on which the passenger is dependent*
• Infant bag
• Infant/child safety seat used to transport the infant/child (if the child has a ticket and will be using the seat in flight, it must be an FAA approved safety seat)**
• A reasonable amount of reading material

*Assistive devices for qualified passengers with special needs may be brought on the plane in addition to the above.

**Approved car seats with a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) red label stating: “This restraint device is approved for motor vehicle and aircraft use” are allowed on the aircraft. The approved seat should be no wider than 16 inches to fit in most seats. Strollers may be used to transport the child to the gate but will then be gate checked in the departing city. The stroller will be returned to the gate at your final destination.

checked baggage

Let us handle your stuff. Here are the rules regarding checked baggage. If you are just carrying your bag with you, be sure to read and read and understand the rules for carry-on baggage. These rules apply only to flights operated by Frontier Airlines and Frontier Express.

Frontier offers several Fare Options that give you the ability to purchase travel that includes the amenities you need or want. The table below shows the three fare options available and the baggage allowance for each. To determine which fare type is best for your trip, check out our Fare Options Tutorial that will ask you a few simple questions to point you in the right direction.

Active duty military personnel with ID (not including family members or traveling companions) will not be assessed bag fees, and media personnel may check bags and equipment for $25 each.

For your security, please keep in mind the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screens all checked baggage. Unlocked bags can be examined quickly. Locked bags will be opened if necessary, and then resealed. You can find further information on the TSA website.

That being said, we highly recommend that you do NOT pack the following items in your checked bags:

• Cash
• Jewelry
• Electronics
• Laptop computers
• Fragile items
• Medications
• Car keys
• Important documents

codeshare

On codeshare flights, baggage allowances will be determined by the policy of the carrier on which the passenger’s flight originates. On codeshare flights operated by Great Lakes Airlines, Frontier’s baggage fees will apply.

size and weight issues

We know it’s a weighty issue, but please remember items which exceed 62 linear inches (length + width + depth) or weigh more than 50 pounds will incur a fee. There is a $75 fee for bags exceeding these weight limitations and a $75 fee for exceeding the size limitation. These fees are charged separately and one item can incur multiple fees. You can read more about baggage in the Contract of Carriage (PDF).

We take the safety of our passengers and employees very seriously. Frankly folks, our employees have to lift and carry these bags to get them to your flight and we’d really like to keep those checked bags under 50 pounds each. And, as much as we’d like to help, we don’t accept baggage that weighs more than 100 pounds or exceeds 110 linear inches (length + width + depth). If you need to transport items this large, please check with your favorite package delivery company. Thanks for your understanding of our policy.

be a sport with your sports equipment

As we mentioned in the checked baggage section, you may be entitled to a free baggage allowance. Keep in mind, to avoid incurring additional charges, each item can’t exceed 62 linear inches (length + width + depth) and can’t exceed a weight of 50 pounds. Many special items have a specific charge or require special packing.

Please see our baggage chartfor more information.

early check-in rules

We understand that you might want to leave your bags with us and have more time to hang out before your flight, but you may only drop off your baggage up to four hours prior to flight departure. However, ticket counters may not open until two to three hours prior to scheduled departure in some of our smaller cities. Check Airport & Terminal info for ticket counter hours.

Frontier offers a variety of check-in options – online at FrontierAirlines.com, as well as at the airport using self service kiosks, curbside check-in, or our service counters. Regardless of where you check-in, please be at the gate and ready to board no later than 10 minutes before departure. We recommend arriving at the airport two hours or more in advance of your flight. If you are checking bags, you must be at the airport check-in counter no later than 30 minutes before your departure for domestic flights and 60 minutes before departure for international flights. Please note the following airports have exceptions to the 30 minute check-in cutoff for domestic travel:
