DENVER — Frontier Airlines has added a special fee for passengers affected by today’s ground stop, sources report.
“This fee will help us ensure our customers enjoy the top-level service they’ve come to expect from Frontier,” spokesperson Daniele Errett said. “For just one nominal payment of $29.99, those on flights impacted by the sudden, extraordinary decision by the Federal Aviation Administration to ground every plane in the United States can expect to be landed safely and quickly in adherence with the federal government. Of course, as with all other extra charges at Frontier Airlines, this fee is completely optional. Those who choose not to pay it are free to remain in the air and see what happens, which is certainly not advisable given that we’re still not sure what the grounds are for the order in the first place. It’s their decision.”
At press time, the company had added another fee to people who wished to leave the airplanes after they had landed.
