I’m a huge fan of low-cost airlines.
Ultra-low-cost carriers may not offer any frills, but they do give us the opportunity to explore new destinations on a very tight budget.
Frontier has demonstrated this perfectly this week by offering flights on its newest routes for as little as $29!
Frontier is officially the fastest-growing airline in Atlanta thanks to a huge expansion that has seen departures increase from the hub by 40% year on year.
Much more interestingly, this means that they’ve added new flights to new destinations from Atlanta. And these two overseas hotspots stand out from the crowd.
New Flight From Atlanta to Aruba
From May 24, Frontier will introduce a new weekly service from Atlanta to Oranjestad in Aruba. This will operate every Saturday throughout the summer months.
The advertised rates for this route are ‘from $69’ each way, so how much will flights really cost?
The cost of a return, nonstop flight for one traveler flying on June 14 and returning on June 21 is $309.
This is for a basic fare ticket which doesn’t include a carry on bag, checked bag, or the option to choose your own seat.
If you want to add these extras then, as is the case with most low-cost airlines, these will be subject to an extra charge.
Why Visit Aruba?
There’s so much to love about Aruba. It is famed for its stunningly beautiful beaches, abundance of water sports, hiking in Arikok National Park, and laid-back vibes.
Oranjestad is the main arrival point for visitors to Aruba, but its more than just a transport hub, it’s well worth exploring in its own right.
The city is famed for its brightly colored Dutch architecture and is a cultural melting pot of delicious foods and fun nightlife.
It’s worth noting that Oranjestad is Aruba’s largest city as well as the main port of the island, so don’t be surprised to find that the streets are almost always busy and bustling with tourists.
Want to get away to somewhere a little quieter? Head to the island’s western coast where the waters are warm and calm, but you’ll find fewer tourists here. Rodger’s Beach and Druif Beach are considered the two best beaches on this side of the island.
New Flight From Atlanta to Honduras
From June 12, Frontier will add a new flight from Atlanta to San Pedro Sula, Honduras, to its schedule.
This flight will operate three times a week, giving you more flexibility with the duration of your vacation. Frontier is advertising rates starting ‘from $59’ on this route.
The cost of a return, nonstop flight for one traveler flying on June 17 and returning on June 24 is currently $243.
Like the flight to Aruba, this is based on a basic fare ticket, but it’s worth noting that if you do want to take a carry on bag and to have the ability to choose your own seat then you can upgrade to the Economy Bundle for an additional $58. This includes carry on luggage and seat selection, but doesn’t include hold luggage.
Why Visit San Pedro Sula?
San Pedro Sula is located in the North of Honduas and is considered one of the country’s main transport hubs, acting a gateway to more obvious tourist attractions.
From here Copan, the Caribbean Coast, and the Bay Islands are all easily accessible.
One of the closest beaches to San Pedro Sula and one of the best spots for travelers is the vast sands of Tela. Tela is famed for boasting the best beaches in Honduras and is an incredible scuba diving destination.
Other attractions in Tela include the Lancetilla Botanical Garden, which is home to rare plant species from around the world, and the protected Punta Sal National Park, which is home to mangroves and coral reefs.
While there’s so much to see and do, Tela is a great place to relax and unwind.
