Becoming a DISCOUNT DEN member

When signing up for Frontier’s DISCOUNT DEN, travelers pay an annual membership fee plus a new member enrollment fee. The yearly membership fee is $59.99 for one full year. New members pay a $40 enrollment fee, which applies to returning members who previously canceled their membership.

Once members, passengers can access Frontier’s lowest fares all year! If passengers are not already members when signing up to be a DISCOUNT DEN member, they automatically become Frontier Miles members. Each time members fly Frontier, they will earn miles towards another trip.

Only select flights qualify for Kids Fly Free. Frontier's website makes checking and booking flights that qualify for this promotion easy.

Things to consider before joining Frontier’s DISCOUNT DEN

One Kids Fly Free ticket per one adult ticket

One kid can fly for free for every adult DISCOUNT DEN fare purchased.

Examples of when the Kids Fly Free promotion can be applied:

  • A family of four whose mother is a DISCOUNT DEN member purchases her and her husband’s tickets. They can use the Kids Fly Free promotion for their two children.
  • A grandmother is a DISCOUNT DEN member and purchases her ticket, her husband’s ticket, her daughter’s ticket, her son-in-law’s ticket, and her four grandchildren’s ticket

Example of when the Kids Fly Free promotion cannot be applied:

  • A mother of three is a DISCOUNT DEN member. She can use the Kids Fly Free promotion for one kid but must purchase tickets for her other two kids.

Kids cannot Fly Free if changing flights

If unexpected events happen and passengers have to change their flight after the initial booking, the Kids Fly Free promotion will be lost. Members may have to pay a full fare for the kid initially flying free.

I asked a Frontier representative what would happen if a flight is canceled when using the Kids Fly Free promotion.

The Frontier representative said, “If the flight is affected by involuntary changes, Frontier can accommodate your flight for free.”

Frontier does not allow unaccompanied minors

Since 2018, Frontier Airlines has not allowed unaccompanied minors. Those interested in the Kids Fly Free fare for their kid must purchase an adult ticket.

Kids cannot Fly Free on international flights

While Frontier flies to many international destinations, like Aruba, Montego Bay, Cancun, St. Thomas, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Belize, and more, DISCOUNT DEN members cannot use the Kids Fly Free promotion on international flights.

Offer does not include other fees

While using the Kids Fly Free promotion, kids traveling will still need to pay other fees, including bags, seats, and any other travel add-ons.

Earning exclusions

Kids flying through the Kids Fly Free program do not earn Frontier Miles.
