If you don't have bags and don't have a layover it is probably worth.

You don't even get a carryone bag without paying for it on Frontier. You get one small personal item.

Frontier Airlines - worth it for a one-off, one-way trip from SLC to Vegas? clearly the cheapest. Just looking to get

It’s just a low coster. Everything is a la carte. No WiFi. Cheaper seats.

Fewer flights per day so if it's canceled you're more likely to have to wait til the next day. I would never fly

It’s a gamble but you’re headed to Vegas so why not start there

Just ask CB if anyone wants a free trip from Vegas to SLC to drive it up.

Is it a Malibu? If so, you’ll need to pay for your return ticket.

Sounds like a perfect scenario to use Frontier. Short trip, no need to check baggage, doesn't matter if it's delayed.

They are a dirty company and will rip you off if they get a chance. I would use

They're able to offer cheaper flights because of people who don't think they'll actually charge you for a carryon...

Yeah, that's really bad, and honestly not surprising for them. I would never fly frontier if I had to do anything...

It's great, until you get the message that your flight now has a layover
