DENVER, July 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Frontier Airlines today announced it will launch non-stop service between its Denver International Airport (DEN) hub and Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) in West Palm Beach, Fla. on Nov. 15, 2007. The new service will connect travelers from the West to sunny Palm Beach County, and will enable West Palm travelers to connect to cities in the western United States and Mexico via non-stop flights from Denver. The new daily flight is the only non-stop service between Palm Beach and Denver.

“Frontier Airlines, which has a tremendous reputation in the industry, offers great connecting service from Denver that opens key markets for Palm Beach County,” said Bruce Pelly, Palm Beach International Director of Airports. “We made it a top goal to recruit this airline and it’s a partnership we can all be proud of. PBI will now offer daily non-stop round-trip service to Denver.”

“This adds up to a win-win for travel convenience into Palm Beach County,” added Dick Haller, Palm Beach International Director of Airport Marketing. “Palm Beach International Airport’s only year-round service west of Houston will be Frontier Airlines. The new Airbus 319 jet is a terrific aircraft featuring 132-passenger seats, each with 24 channels of DIRECTV and four pay-per-view movies in every seatback. This is a great day for the business and leisure travel industry of Palm Beach County.”

“Frontier Airlines is very optimistic about our new service into Palm Beach County, our 66th market,” said Frontier Senior Vice President of Marketing and Planning John Happ. “We are impressed with Palm Beach International Airport and the professionalism of the travel industry that markets the destination. Palm Beach County is a dynamic market that was clearly underserved for the low-fare and high-quality product that Frontier Airlines offers. We predict a long, successful partnership in this new venture.”

To celebrate the new service, Frontier is offering an introductory fare of only $119* each way from West Palm Beach to Denver. The special fare is one-way with round-trip purchase required, and must be purchased by 9:59 p.m. MDT, Sept. 5, 2007, for travel through March 5, 2008.
