Ultra-low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines has built a reputation for adding and removing routes to and from its network at a fairly rapid clip.

Let’s take a look at all the details of these upcoming cuts from Frontier.

It’s fairly common for low-cost carriers to add and remove routes quickly, though Frontier has become the most notorious for this practice. In fact, we wouldn’t be at all surprised if we saw the airline announce another tranche of new routes soon, as it works to see what routes stick and which ultimately flop.
