Frontier Airlines has announced 4 new routes connecting cities in Texas to New Jersey, and from Nevada to Tennessee. As always, the low-cost airline is offering limited-time introductory fares that start at just $49 one-way.

“We are very pleased to announce these new routes, offering more low-cost service across the U.S. just in time for the summer travel season,” said Josh Flyr, vice president of network and operations design at Frontier.

Let’s take a closer look at Frontier’s latest network update.

Frontier’s New Routes Starting in May and June

With start dates on May 5, May 21, and June 11, Frontier is timing the launch of its new routes to coincide with the busy summer travel season.

Route	Start Date	Frequency	Introductory One-Way Fares

Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) to Santa Ana, California (SNA)	May 21, 2026	4x weekly	$89

Nashville (BNA) to Las Vegas (LAS)	June 11, 2026	4x weekly	$49

Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) is growing in importance for Frontier, so it’s no surprise that 2 routes will be added here.

With the addition of Santa Ana (SNA), Frontier will serve 5 destinations in California nonstop from Dallas. Of course, it will face stiff competition from American Airlines, which operates its largest hub at DFW, on the route. As for the Dallas to Newark route, Frontier will compete with American, Spirit, and United, all of which offer daily nonstop service between the 2 airports.

On its new route between Fort Lauderdale (FLL) and Washington, D.C. (IAD), Frontier will face United, making it the only low-cost carrier to fly between the 2 cities.

The same cannot be said for the route between Las Vegas (LAS) and Nashville (BNA), on which Delta, Spirit, and Southwest all offer nonstop service.
