Frontier Airlines continues expanding its presence at Philadelphia International Airport with flights to the Bahamas starting in the fall, writes Ryan Sharrow for Philadelphia Business Journal.

There will be three weekly nonstop flights from Philadelphia to Nassau starting Nov. 2. Introductory flights will start at $79.

The Denver-based airline is offering introductory flights starting at $79.

The new route taps into the demand for leisure travel unleashed since COVID-19 restrictions were lifted.

That demand is helping n the airport’s recovery. Carriers are focusing on vacationers looking for domestic and international warm weather destinations.

Frontier, a discount carrier out of Denver, launched two new flights in July from Philadelphia to Providence, Rhode Island, and Portland, Maine.

Frontier provided 23 nonstop routes this summer from the airport.

The airline announced 15 new nonstop routes this week. In addition to the Philadelphia to Nassau service, it is also offering nine routes out of Miami to St. Louis, Aruba, Turks & Caicos Islands and Norfolk Virginia.

In December, service will start out of Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey to Aruba, Turks & Caicos and Montego Bay, Jamaica.

Frontier operates more than 100 aircraft serving approximately 120 destinations in the U.S., Caribbean, Mexico and central America.
