- Frontier Airlines is bringing back its annual "all-you-can-fly" GoWild pass for 2024.
- The $499 program lets passholders book an unlimited number of Frontier flights for $0.01 per trip.
- Limitations include two months of blackout dates and a tight booking period that opens 24 hours before the flight.
Calling all spontaneous travelers: Frontier Airlines is bringing back its annual "all-you-can-fly" GoWild pass in 2024 — currently for its lowest-ever price of $499.
But before you scramble to buy one, you should know there's some fine print.
Frontier says travelers who buy into its upcoming GoWild program can book as many domestic and international Frontier flights as they'd like from May 1, 2024, through April 30, 2025 — all for only one cent per flight.
And for buyers with commitment issues, the low-cost airline is still selling a $299 fall-to-winter pass (September 2023 through February 2024), and a monthly option at $99 for the first month and $149 for months after.
But like anything that sounds too good to be true, there are several stipulations. GoWild's blackout dates will add up to two months throughout the 2024 to 2025 season.
To avoid an early-booking fee, seats must be reserved as early as the day before a domestic flight or 10 days before an international trip. The earlier a passholder books, the better — there's a limited number of "first-come, first-served" GoWild seats on every trip.
Travelers who buy into Frontier's program from November 15 to November 28 will be automatically raised to Silver Elite status, which includes benefits like complimentary seat assignments.
But as a low-cost airline, passholders without this status will still have to pay bag and seat assignment fees.
This unlimited flight pass is a continuation of Frontier's 2023 GoWild program, which started at $399 for a five-month summer pass or $1,299 for an annual membership.
GoWild's stipulations can be "extremely frustrating" for those who can't travel spontaneously, Business Insider's Taylor Rains reported after testing the pass.
The airline acknowledged this in its latest release, saying that this opportunity is a "great value" for "anyone with flexibility in their travel plans."
