Frontier has round-trip flights from Los Angeles (LAX) to San Francisco (SFO) for $34-$48, Nonstop. $14-$24 one-way. Flights October to December. No Friday or Sunday departures. Origin/Destination reversible. Holiday blackouts.

If you use the Frontier Airlines World Mastercard®, you can avoid bag fees for your first two standard-sized checked-bags. The card has a $99 annual fee, so keep in mind that you’ll need to use the free bag perk at least once a year to break even. Bags normally cost between $49-to-$99 each-way, so if you plan on traveling with bags on Frontier often you can get a lot of potential savings from this perk.

If you don’t have a way to avoid bag fees, consider using a small backpack as your “personal item” when flying Frontier. Dimensions for my Jansport backpack are: 18″ x 13″ x 8.5″. Which is half-an-inch larger than what is officially allowed by Frontier, but it has never been a problem for me. Bag designs like the Jansport SuperBreak backpack (linked) have the same dimensions as the bag I’m using, and also have a large main compartment, which makes it ideal for stuffing as much as you can into the limited amount of space.

Recently starting in 2025, Frontier has made some changes to how they operate bringing them closer in-line to a regular carrier. The first change is adding “first class” seating in the first two rows of their aircraft, the seat size and type is similar to business/first class domestic seating on most regular carriers. The second change is allowing Gold Status and above to get complimentary upgrades into the new “first class” seating. The last major change is that Platinum and Diamond Elite members can get a companion pass for just the tax+fees, which isn’t free, but it avoids the airfare cost of the ticket. There is no limit on the number of times the Companion Travel benefit can be used and the companion can be changed for each flight. This can generate substantial savings if you travel with a partner on Frontier often.

You can usually save more money by booking your flight+hotel together as a package instead of separately.
