THURSDAY, 5 AUGUST 2010
Frontier Airlines will provide daily winter service between Denver International Airport (DEN) and Steamboat/Hayden Airport (HDN) with one daily roundtrip flight for the upcoming 2010/2011 winter season.
“Frontier travelers now have convenient flight options to reach Steamboat and its incredible Champagne Powder® snow this winter from over 25 key markets across the country,” said Andy Wirth, senior vice president of sales & marketing for Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation. “As a result of the state-of-the-art airport facility and a direct flight program built upon convenience and a variety of options for guests, Steamboat’s direct flight system is unmatched within the industry and truly a key differentiator and competitive advantage for this community.”
Frontier’s new service provides convenient connecting access from key winter vacation markets such as Dallas, Ft. Lauderdale, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, New York, Omaha, Orlando, Phoenix and Washington, D.C. to name a few.
“We are very excited to be back in Steamboat Springs and one of Colorado’s premier winter destinations,” said Daniel Shurz, vice president of planning and strategy for Frontier. “With the upcoming addition of our nonstop service to Steamboat, winter customers will enjoy easy access from across the United States, Mexico and Costa Rica right into the heart of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.”
Frontier’s Steamboat/Hayden service, flown by the 99 passenger Embraer 190 aircraft, will begin daily winter nonstop service between Denver and Steamboat/Hayden Airport on Dec. 16th and run through April 10th. Customers on board these aircraft enjoy comfortable leather seating in a two-by-two configuration. The Company’s Embraer 170/190 fleet will also be outfitted with Gogo in-flight internet service by the end of 2010.
