Frontier Airlines Adding New Flights to The Bahamas, Jamaica 

By: Alexander Britell - August 17, 2022

Ultra-low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines has been rapidly expanding its Caribbean network in the pandemic, and now the company is adding two more routes to the region. 

Frontier has announced plans to launch new flights from Atlanta to both Nassau, The Bahamas and Kingston, Jamaica. 

The new service between Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and Nassau’s Lynden Pindling International Airport will kick off on Nov. 5.

That route will be operating once weekly. 

The new route from Atlanta to Kingston’s Norman Manley International Airport will begin two days later on Nov. 7, Frontier said. 

Atlanta-Kingston flights will run twice each week, another boost for Jamaica’s capital, which is becoming a tourist destination in its own right, including the recent debut of Hilton’s first Tapestry Collection hotel in the Caribbean.
