Frontier Airlines expands travel-rule changes to more cities as Hurricane Earl advances
Frontier Airlines Thursday expanded its previously announced relaxed travel rules to more cities as Hurricane Earl advances on the East Coast.
The changes now apply to airports in Boston (airport code BOS), New York LaGuardia (LGA), Newark, N.J. (EWR) and Philadelphia (PHL) as well as the two airports covered earlier, Newport News, Va. (PHF) or Raleigh/Durham, N.C. (RDU).
The rules apply to Frontier passengers ticketed to fly now through Saturday, Sept. 4, and who bought tickets on or before Wednesday, Sept. 1.
According to Frontier’s statement:
“Customers who have already started their travel may make one itinerary change. Rules and restrictions regarding standard change fees, advance purchase, day or time applications, blackouts, and minimum or maximum stay requirements have been waived. Origin and destination cities must remain the same. Changes must be made by midnight, Sept. 4, 2010, and travel completed by Sept. 18, 2010.
“Customers who have not begun travel may make one change to their travel plans by Sept. 4, 2010, without a change fee. All rescheduled travel may be subject to higher fares if it does not meet the original rule or booking class.”
