Fort Lauderdale travelers will see new nonstop flights from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) when Frontier Airlines launches service to Denver, Orlando and Kansas City beginning Nov. 20.

What changes for travelers

The Denver-based carrier announced the routes July 14, saying tickets are on sale now at flyfrontier.com and that introductory one-way fares are available for a limited time. The new service includes daily flights to Denver and four-times-weekly flights to Orlando and Kansas City.

  • Start date: Nov. 20, 2026
  • Fares: Introductory one-way fares from $69 to $99 on select days
  • Booking window: Intro fares available for a limited period; select travel through Jan. 4, 2027
"We are committed to ensuring consumers have affordable travel options, and are pleased to announce these new routes which will connect many popular destinations," said Josh Flyr, Frontier's vice president of network and operations design.

Route details

Frontier's announcement comes as airlines continue adjusting service after Spirit Airlines reduced its network, leaving demand for more nonstop flights from South Florida. Frontier said the three new Florida routes are part of a broader expansion that included dozens of routes added to the state earlier this year.

Local context and likely impacts

For Fort Lauderdale residents and visitors, the new nonstop options could mean shorter travel times and more competition on routes historically served by a shrinking group of carriers. Frontier joins American Airlines, Avianca and JetBlue in ramping up service at FLL this year, a trend accelerated by Spirit’s retrenchment from some markets.

Passengers should note the promotional fares are limited: Frontier’s news release and fare calendar indicate the introductory rates apply to select days of travel and that purchases must be made within the airline’s limited booking window. The promotional travel period extends through Jan. 4, 2027 for qualifying dates, and Frontier set the booking cutoff for introductory pricing through July 20.

Officials at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International have not issued a separate statement tied to this specific announcement, but airport leaders have repeatedly said that expanding nonstop service supports local tourism and business travel as carriers rebuild and reallocate capacity across South Florida.

Travelers planning holiday or winter trips should compare schedules, baggage and seat fees across carriers and consider booking early to secure introductory fares. Tickets for the new Frontier flights are available now at flyfrontier.com.
