Frontier Airlines announced today that it is adding a valuable benefit for its most loyal frequent flyers. FRONTIER Miles℠ Elite Platinum and Diamond Members now receive free companion travel, which is a valuable benefit and something for FRONTIER Miles℠ members to strive for each year.
The companion travel benefit is an Elite Status benefit for Elite Platinum and Diamond members. Elite Platinum status is achievable at 50,000 Elite Status Points and Elite Diamond status requires 100,000 Elite Status Points. Once these status levels are earned, members can do the following to have their companions fly free (or at a very low cost):
- Log into your FRONTIER Miles℠ account.
- Choose travel for at least two people during your flight selection to use the companion travel benefit. Pick a desired flight and fare.
- On the traveler information page, add your companion’s travel detail.
- Continue through the booking process. On the payment page, you will see a note confirming that your companion travel benefit has been applied to the airfare.
Your companion must have a FRONTIER Miles℠ account. Your companion flies for as little as $5.60 (the TSA’s September 11th Security Fee) per flight with no additional ticket price.
Bobby Schroeter, Chief Commercial Officer at Frontier Airlines, said:
Our FRONTIER Miles℠ Elite Status members enjoy the most rewarding loyalty program in the sky – and now, our Platinum and Diamond members can share the benefits with a companion on every Frontier flight. We are laser-focused on delivering real value and rewards to customers left behind by other airline loyalty programs, and our new companion travel shows our commitment to offering convenience, flexibility and our signature affordability.”
To celebrate this new benefit, Frontier is running a contest. It’s offering free Platinum Status through August 31st to 100 randomly selected entrants, providing winners with unlimited companion travel through the summer travel season in addition to the other benefits of Platinum Status.

Anthony’s Take: Frontier has done a lot to reinvent itself with much more on the way (including First Class seats) . This is a great benefit and a valuable prize for 100 winners in the contest.

Well said. Frontier’s push to redefine itself—especially with the introduction of First Class seating—is a game-changer for a budget airline. This contest is a clever way to get people talking and experiencing the changes firsthand. For those 100 winners, it’s a chance to see if Frontier can really deliver comfort and value without losing its low-cost DNA.
