Frontier Airlines Launches Only Nonstop Flights from Philadelphia to Santo Domingo

Frontier Airlines has begun offering nonstop flights from Philadelphia International Airport to Las Americas International Airport in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. 

The airline is currently the only carrier with nonstop routes between Philadelphia and Santo Domingo, and it will offer deals on fares starting at $139 through Dec. 20. The flights between the two cities will run three times per week.  

“We’re proud to partner with PHL to offer this exclusive nonstop service to a fantastic Caribbean destination known for its extraordinary beaches and vibrant attractions,” said Josh Flyr, vice president of network and operations design for Frontier Airlines. “Frontier is excited to offer those in the greater Philadelphia area convenient and affordable travel to the Dominican capital. Meanwhile, we’re thrilled to continue our overall expansion at PHL with nonstop service to a growing list of attractive destinations.”    

Promotional fares on the new route must be for nonstop travel from Jan. 9 through March 2, 2024. Flights must be booked 14 days in advance, and roundtrip purchase is not required. 

In general, Frontier flights can currently be booked for travel through Aug. 12, 2024. Frontier now services 28 destinations from Philadelphia International Airport, and the airline’s December 2023 schedule represents an increase in routes of over 70% from four years ago. 

“Frontier Airline’s expanded service to Santo Domingo is a great addition to PHL’s growing list of non-stop global destinations and it connects two World Heritage cities,” said Atif Saeed, CEO of Philadelphia International Airport. “Local travelers have a new option when looking for a top Caribbean destination to escape the winter cold and it supports the large and growing Dominican population in the Philadelphia region, which recently established a new Consulate General office. The launch of the Santo Domingo flight in December will allow more people to visit their friends and relatives and to get away during the holiday season and beyond.”   

Frontier is also reimagining its frequent flyer program, FRONTIER Miles, starting in 2024. The airline prides itself on its discounted fares and its low-priced WORKS bundle, which includes refundability, a carry-on bag, a checked bag, the best available seat, waived change fees, and priority boarding.
