Frontier flights take off today in Great Falls, Montana

Financial incentives helped recruit low cost Frontier Airlines to Great Falls, with flights starting today, but the area will need to put plenty of passengers in those seats to retain the flights, a Frontier spokesman said.

The airline will fly a 99-passenger Frontier Embraer 190 from Denver to Great Falls and back Monday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday through late summer, with their schedule tentatively ending on Sept. 14.

The Great Falls Airport Authority and Great Falls Area Chamber of Commerce have been recruiting a low-cost airline for nearly two years to provide competition designed to spur existing airlines to lower their fares and stem the tide of Great Falls-area passengers flying out of other Montana airports.
