PRE-FLIGHT EXPERIENCE:
Since this was my return flight back to Cincinnati from Las Vegas, all of the arrangements had been made ahead of time. You can check out my first experience flying Frontier Airlines at https://www.thesuitelifeoftravel.com/my-first-experience-with-frontier-airlines/
I headed down to the service desk/front desk of Harrah’s to book my transportation from the hotel to the airport. They provide shuttle service for a fee of $10 per person. Unfortunately, I was not able to print out my ticket that night, but I knew I could wait until I arrived at the airport to print out the boarding pass and pay the additional fee for baggage.
DAY OF THE FLIGHT:
I arrived 90 minutes prior to the flight’s departure and again, was met by Frontier Airlines with a long wait for the ticket counter. I approached the ticket agent because I was leaving from the hotel and unable to print out the ticket for my return flight. Therefore, I did not have my seat selected nor did I pay in advance for my luggage.
The ticket agent quickly processed my paperwork, tagged my luggage and provided me with paper tickets so that I could begin the wait in line for security. Interestingly, I was not charged an additional fee here for my luggage. Thanks Frontier Agent and the Las Vegas Ticket Agents!
The security line seemed quite long but there were several machines available to check carry-ons and screen passengers. I was entertained by passengers traveling in bath robes while an agitated security agent, repeated the security procedures over and over again. It seemed as though people may have been too hung over to follow instructions. The wait lasted about 20 minutes with only a few to spare before I needed to reach my gate.
I was given the first row, middle seats, with plenty of leg room. I slept most of the 3 ½ hour flight back home and it seemed as if in no time I was landing in CVG. I collected my luggage from the carousel, picked up my car from long-term parking and headed back home. Yeah!
So would I book another flight with Frontier Airlines? Absolutely! Now that I am familiar with their policies and procedures and know what to expect at the ticket counter, this will be a breeze the next time I choose Frontier as my air carrier. Many thanks to all of the employees at Frontier who made my trip uneventful (which is always a good thing) and provided me excellent service!
