Frontier Airlines announced it will be making changes to its fleet that continue its strategy of operating the most cost-effective aircraft. Effective in September 2010, the Company will remove four 120-seat Airbus 318s and one 76-seat Embraer 170 aircraft from scheduled service. Three of these aircraft have been sold to third parties and two will be returned to their lessors.
Beginning in January 2011, Frontier will accept the first of six new 162-seat A320 aircraft. All six aircraft have firm lease financing arranged and will be arriving during the first two quarters of 2011.
