Frontier adds two Vegas routes
Low cost carrier Frontier Airlines is adding two new routes from Las Vegas McCarran International Airport.
Frontier will start daily flights to Tampa and Nashville from Las Vegas on September 6.
These two new additions take to 19 the number of destinations served from Las Vegas, which is more than double compared to less than a year ago.
The flights will be served by twin-engine 150-seat Airbus A319 jets.
"We are thrilled that our partners at Frontier continue to expand service to Las Vegas. It is the fastest growing domestic carrier in Las Vegas, helping the destination set a new visitation record of more than 42.3 million visitors last year. Every new seat provides opportunity for continued growth," said Cathy Tull, senior vice president of marketing for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitor Authority.
Frontier will compete with Southwest Airlines which operates daily flights to both destinations from Vegas.
In the past year Frontier has added direct flights from Las Vegas to Columbus, Ohio, Colorado Springs, Houston, Miami, Milwaukee, Pittsburgh, Salt Lake City and San Antonio.
