Wyoming ski town sixth of seven new regional destinations for Frontier DENVER, May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- At 8:30 a.m. MDT, Frontier Airlines launched service to its newest market, Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The nearly full flight was received in Jackson Hole at 10:10 a.m. with tremendous fanfare, as Jackson Hole entered a new era of high-quality, low-cost air travel. Frontier's new Jackson Hole service will include three daily nonstop flights to the Denver hub. Jackson Hole is one of seven new regional markets Frontier announced in February, all of which are shorter-haul markets, better suited to leveraging the economics of the Bombardier Q400 aircraft. A fleet of 10 Q400s are operated for Frontier by Frontier Airlines Holdings, Inc. subsidiary Lynx Aviation. "Our new Bombardier Q400s are the absolute best aircraft for the Jackson Hole market," said Frontier President and CEO, Sean Menke. "Not only does the Q400 have superior technology when it comes to noise and vibration control, but if offers a level of luxury you won't find in most of the turboprops out there. We are looking forward to providing the Jackson Hole community with our unmatched customer service, reliability, and low-cost airfare." "It is with pleasure that we welcome Frontier Airlines into the Jackson Hole community", said Mike Gierau, Chair, JH AIR. "The Bombardier Q400 aircraft should prove a perfect fit for our market; extremely fuel efficient and able to operate well at high elevation. The decision by Frontier to provide year-round service, with over 200 quality seats daily feeding connecting traffic through Denver is a significant commitment to Jackson."
