who we are

"We launched EarlyReturns one year ago, on February 1st, 2001, and the response from our customers has been tremendous," exclaimed Frontier President and COO Jeff Potter. "During the past year, more than 240,000 people have become Frontier frequent flyers and the ranks are growing every day. We are very proud to celebrate the first anniversary of the program by offering our loyal customers two more fast and easy ways to earn free travel with Frontier."

Highlights of the Program

• Award Redemption: EarlyReturns offers one of the most generous award programs in the industry. Redemptions on the program include a free round-trip flight anywhere on Frontier's route system at just 15,000 miles.
• Earning Miles: Members earn one mile for every mile flown on Frontier, plus additional mileage with program partners.
• EarlyReturns Program Partners: Frontier launched the program with airline partners Continental Airlines, Midwest Express Airlines and Virgin Atlantic Airways; car rental partners Alamo, Hertz, National and Payless Car Rental; hotel partner Kimpton Boutique Hotels and credit card partner Citicorp Diners Club Inc. In addition, during the past year, Frontier has added Vail Resorts and Denver's Inverness Hotel and Golf Club as partners in the program.
• Tier Levels: EarlyReturns features two tier levels. Ascent Level membership begins at just 15,000 flight miles flown on Frontier and includes benefits such as priority check-in and boarding and 10 percent mileage bonus on every paid Frontier flight. Members who have earned 25,000 or more credited flight miles on Frontier in the past year, reach Summit Level and earn benefits including 25 percent mileage bonus on every paid Frontier flight, priority check-in and boarding and complimentary on-board alcoholic beverages.
  

Director of E-commerce and EarlyReturns Lowell Miller stated: "Nothing is more important to our customers than their time; EarlyReturns' Ascent and Summit level membership allows them to navigate the airport more quickly and earn free trips on Frontier faster than on other airlines. We have had an excellent response to the program during its first year and look forward to continuing to improve the program by adding partners and benefits for members and continuing to add convenience to the program for our loyal customers."
