The inaugural flight, #1048, departs San Antonio at 6:05 p.m. CST today. “Frontier is thrilled to bring the San Antonio community more choice in their travel with the addition of our nonstop service to Milwaukee,” said Daniel Shurz, Vice President of Strategy and Planning. “Customers flying nonstop to Denver and Milwaukee, or connecting to our more than 70 destinations across the United States, Mexico and Costa Rica, will enjoy the greater convenience and flexibility this expanded network provides.” "We welcome the new Frontier nonstop service to Milwaukee and are excited that the airline has once again chosen to expand their presence in our San Antonio market,” said Frank Miller, San Antonio Aviation Director. "The new nonstop flights will give our San Antonio passengers additional low-cost options to more Frontier markets.” Following are the schedules for the new Milwaukee-San Antonio service: The new Milwaukee-San Antonio service complements Frontier’s twice-daily roundtrip flights between San Antonio and Denver International Airport (DEN).

In addition, the E190 has several rows of STRETCH seating, which provides an extra five inches of comfortable legroom.
