Frontier Airlines Is Cutting This Montego Bay Route

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - April 21, 2024 - 4:28 pm

Ultra-low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines is cutting one of its newer routes to the island of Jamaica.

Frontier is canceling the route between Cleveland and Montego Bay’s Sangster International Airport in June.

The carrier only launched the route last month. It has been operating three times per week.

“Unfortunately, the demand has not proven sufficient to continue the route for the full summer season,” the airline said in a statement. “We will continue to evaluate market conditions going forward.”

According to the company, the route will stop operating at the end of June. It had been slated to run through at least August.
