The GoWild! pass can be a good purchase for those who plan to fly a lot this year but numerous restrictions apply.
Frontier Airlines’ GoWild! air pass for 2024 is now open for sale. You have two options:
- Summer season, $399 for May 1 2024 through September 30,
- Annual, $599 for May 1 2024 through April 30, 2025.
Passes automatically renew at the end of each year or validity period. Last year’s fall winter and monthly passes are still posted on Frontier’s website, but they’re largely out of travel dates for now.
GoWild! is a true air pass, in the same sense as a typical rail pass: You can fly as many trips as you want within the period of validity, at a nominal cost of one cent per flight, but subject to restrictions. You must:
- Be a member of frontier’s frequent flyer program (no cost).
- Pay the same fees and taxes you would pay for a paid ticket.
- Pay separately for carry-on baggage, checked baggage, seat assignments, and other “ancillary” products.
Also, you can book flights only one day prior to departure for domestic flights and 10 days prior to departure for international trips (Mexico, Central America, and Caribbean). But you can sometimes book earlier by paying an early-booking fee. If you connect, each leg counts as a trip. Pass travel does not earn frequent flyer credit. Seats are limited at all times, not available on some flights at all, and pass travel is completely blacked out on 58 total days between May 1 and April 30.
