I've got free flying stand by. You'd think I'd take advantage of it more.....

With Frontier you have to work the system. But it can still be cheap.

They allow one free personal item. We looked up the maximum size of this. Which is 14x18x8 and found the exact size bags on Amazon for $5. And is plenty big enough to fit 4 days of clothes amd a few other small items. Fishing gear and hiking gear were checked. There was 4 of us. All with matching personal bags and one checked bag. The checked bag weighed 48lbs.

As for the dates. Your best rates are going to be on days that aren't as popular travel days, and odd hours. And during off seasons, which Oct is and off season in CO.

I was looking last week at Frontier flights and put together a flight later in Oct for $59 RT to Denver.

The planes are new. But are barebones. Seats dont recline, tiny tray. Seats dont always line up on windows. Dont know about in flight service because I slept through it.

Our tickets were $150 RT

Found a ticket for my birthday weekend for $166.  Might go stay with a friend for a long weekend.
