IE Business Daily Business news for the Inland Empire.
Frontier Airlines will add three domestic and two international flights out of Ontario International Airport this year.
The Denver-based airline will begin nonstop service to Newark, Miami and Las Vegas in April, followed by international flights to El Salvador in May and Guatemala in June, according to a statement.
Frontier currently operates flights to Denver, its hub city, as well as Austin and Orlando from Terminal 2 at Ontario International. Once its five new flights are operating, Ontario travelers will be able to reach more than two dozen destinations nonstop.
“This significant expansion of air service adds to Ontario’s momentum and reaffirms our status as the nation’s fasting growing airport,” said Alan D. Wapner, president of the Ontario International Airport Authority board of commissioners and an Ontario city council member, in the statement. “At a time when few airports in Southern California are consistently attracting more air travelers, Ontario is bucking the trend with double-digit passenger growth, which is good news for the Inland Empire economy.”
Frontier’s new flights will be served with Airbus A320 aircraft equipped with 180 seats, according to the statement.
