In the 1980s, American Airlines let a few dozen lucky people purchase unlimited lifetime AAirpasses for upward of $250,000, but the airline eventually rolled some of the passes back.
And while such programs are always enticing, they tend to go wayward. Unlimited flight passes have, of course, been around for years. Here’s what the ride in coach is really like. Perhaps you’ve come across this popular train on TikTok, where people rave about its gorgeous observation cars. Travel & Experiences 34 hours on America’s most scenic train. “The real genesis of the pass is we’re flying thousands and thousands of empty seats every day,” Squyres said. (After that date, the price will revert back to $999, though Tyri Squyres, Frontier’s vice president of marketing, said the passes may sell out entirely this month.) Annual passes, which are good for a calendar year starting May 2, started at $599 and are currently on sale for $1,999.įor Frontier, which carries around 25 million passengers annually, the pass is a remedy for a problem that many airlines face. 30, started at $399 and are $499 until May 31. Its premise was simple: Users can book unlimited flights for fares of 1 cent (plus taxes and fees). The Denver-based low-cost carrier caught my attention last November when the company announced it would be launching the GoWild! All-You-Can-Fly Pass. Yet Frontier Airlines didn’t come across my radar until more recently. I’ve traveled thousands of miles on JetBlue (my ride-or-die), TAP Air Portugal (amazing), Vueling (decent), Ryanair (can you tell I studied abroad in Europe?), French Bee (they lost my bag at Paris Orly for nearly a week) and Spirit (who among us wouldn’t buy a $45 round-trip ticket to see Pitbull play in Nashville?).
As a person who takes many last-minute trips, I’m used to flying on budget airlines.
