Frontier Airlines Offers Elite Gold Status for $69 to Members of Select Airlines

Frontier Airlines is offering Elite Gold status through December 2026 to members of select airline loyalty programs for a one-time fee of $69. This includes premium benefits such as free carry-on bag, priority boarding, and 14X miles earning per $1 spent. The promotion targets loyalty program members from Southwest Airlines, JetBlue, Spirit Airlines, and Alaska Airlines, except those who participated in Southwest's past status match campaign. Frontier is also introducing First Class seating across its network by late 2025.

Frontier Airlines (Nasdaq: ULCC) has announced an exclusive offer for members of select airline loyalty programs to experience its premium FRONTIER Miles benefits. For a one-time fee of $69, consumers with any level of loyalty program membership with Southwest Airlines, JetBlue, Spirit Airlines, or Alaska Airlines can upgrade to Frontier Elite Gold status through December 2026 [1].

This offer, in partnership with Loyalty Status Co, provides nearly 18 months of Frontier Gold benefits, including a free carry-on bag, Zone 1 priority boarding, priority customer care, free preferred seat selection, and complimentary upgrades to premium seating at check-in and UpFront Plus seating four hours before departure [1]. Additionally, Elite Gold members earn miles faster—14X per $1 spent on eligible Frontier purchases—making it easier to reach Elite Platinum or Elite Diamond status [1].

Frontier Airlines aims to attract frequent flyers by offering a cost-effective way to elevate their travel experience. The promotion is particularly attractive for those who have not participated in Southwest's past status match campaign [1].

Frontier is also set to debut First Class seating across its network by late 2025, further enhancing the travel experience for its customers [1]. This new feature will offer unmatched comfort and space at ultra-low fares, aligning with Frontier's commitment to providing outstanding value and an exceptional travel experience.

To take advantage of this offer, existing members of qualifying loyalty programs can visit frontier.getstatus.com by September 9 and provide their membership information along with the $69 application fee [1]. The offer may change or be withdrawn at any time, including but not limited to the fees and validity period [1].
