      I flew to REMOVEDon September 12th with Frontier Airlines after getting to my hotel I noticed that my bag had been damaged. I had to purchase another bag to return home. After contacting Frontier they told me that the complaint had to be filed within 4 hours for them to do anything. I went with a London Fog bag and returned with a cheap REMOVEDbag.

      I had a seat on frontier flight 1994 leaving REMOVEDto REMOVED. The flight was delayed 8 hours and two minutes overnight; thisappearsto be because of a mechanicalissue. The counter staff refused a hotel accommodationand told me to contact customer service by phone. I received a whatsapp message that a hotel voucher was going to be emailed but it never came. The counter staff also just before leaving said they set up one $10 meal voucher that I'm not sure even worked when I tried to redeem. I also had to pay for an extra day of airport parking.

      Request for reimbursement submitted 3 times with no resolution. Numerous hours on the phone and many other emails trying to get this resolved. We also submitted a complaint to REMOVED. Please see email below for information:This is in reference to claim # AUAF903351840. FINAL INTERIM PROCESS.THIS MESSAGE IS FOR REIMBURSEMENT for Expenses for luggage that was delayed. WE HAVE OUR BAG, however, we received it 10 days late and had to purchase items and REMOVEDfamily of 4 traveled on Frontier from REMOVEDto REMOVEDon August 9 with confirmation number UE26NP. Our baggage did not arrive and we filed a claim immediately at the airport with the Frontier representative. We were told that Frontier would ship the baggage to REMOVED, however, they did not. We remained in REMOVEDfor 7 days without any of our items and we returned to REMOVEDon August 16. We did not receive our luggage until August 19, 2025, when it was delivered to our home in REMOVED. This means we did not have any of our needed items during our entire REMOVEDwe only had one checked bag, all 4 passengers packed all important items needed for this trip, including clothing, toiletries,toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, cetaphil sensitive skin wash,deodorant, shaving cream, shaving blades, medication, children's medication, sunscreen, clothing, underwear, socks, footwear bathing suits, pants., shirts, swimsets, in the bag that was lost. Since we were traveling to REMOVEDfor the beach, we needed hats and sunglasses to protect from the sun. Additionally, we had planned excursions and had packed custom snorkel gear which is required for use on a prepaid snorkeling excursion. Unfortunately, all of these items were in the bag that Frontier never sent to REMOVED. We spent many hours finding stores and searching and purchasing suitable items to replace what was missing. I have included 6 pages of receipts for our expenses. Thank you for your prompt reimbursement of $815.39 for our expenses.Thank you.

      delayed my flight over 2 hours because there was no crew available to REMOVEDand apparently no gate to park the plane. Completely unacceptable airline operations. Passengers stranded and frustrated. I had to get a hotel in REMOVEDrebook flights with united and American airlines. Frontier refused to reimburse me on the return flight PBS5JV I would like my money back. There was no way to make the return as I was stranded in REMOVED. And that flight came back the next day.

      Frontier Airlines TL54H. On my way to REMOVEDi had two delays. I landed 1am the next day instead do 10pm. The real issue was when the Air Traffic Controllers didnt show up for work during the government shutdown. They cancelled my flight . I had to get a hotel overnight when trying to return to REMOVEDfrom MSP. That was a inconvenience. I missed work and had to stay at the REMOVEDfor 13 hours . Extremely dissatisfied and this is unacceptable I would like to have my flight refunded . Not even a food voucher just money I had to pay for hotel and missing work . Waste of time please make this right. The airline did not work with me at all and were rude.

      On October 23, 2025, I traveled on Frontier Flight #REMOVEDfrom REMOVED(REMOVED) to REMOVED(REMOVED) with my child. I gate-checked my stroller at the aircraft doorit was in perfect condition at boarding. When the stroller was returned to me upon arrival in REMOVED, it had visible structural damage.I immediately filed a damage claim with Frontier before leaving the airport and uploaded photos and documentation. The claim was initially listed as pending, but I later discovered it had been closed without any notice, email, or written decision. I was never contacted or given an opportunity to appeal.When I inquired, I was told the claim would be denied because the stroller was not placed in a protective bag. This reason is not supported by REMOVEDregulations or Frontiers own Contract of Carriage, which make no mention of a protective bag requirement for gate-checked child equipment.Since the stroller was handled entirely by Frontier after gate check, the airline is responsible for returning it in the same condition it was received. No waiver or advisory was provided at the gate indicating that use of a protective bag was mandatory.I have filed a DOT complaint (reference available) and am now escalating to the BBB because Frontier closed my claim prematurely, failed to provide notice, and denied liability without valid justification.

      On 10/18/25 I purchased tickets for $191.00 with Frontier Airlines to fly from (SAT) REMOVED, to (REMOVED) REMOVED. The flight was on 10/26/25 at 8:26PM and had a connection in REMOVEDat 10:29PM. The first connection was delayed by 3 hours and REMOVEDa next day delay. I spoke to customer service about a hotel or meal compensation for my delay and was told that the company would not be providing these and that I would have to just wait. This employee was REMOVED(Employee ID: REMOVEDThe desk agents met the same conclusion. After being told this, I researched Frontiers customer service policy that states at a minimum meal reimbursements will be provided with potential hotel reimbursement. Its the responsibility of the Better Business Bureau to hold Frontier to their customer service policies.
