Why it earns its spot
- +Card spend counts toward Frontier elite status
- +Two free checked bags and the $100 anniversary voucher can outrun the fee
Where it costs you
- −Frontier miles expire fast without this card and are worth little
- −Ultra low cost economics mean fees eat most redemptions
The Compound Verdict
Frontier miles expire so aggressively that this card is practically mandatory for anyone collecting them. The status points on every dollar and the anniversary voucher are real value for frequent Frontier flyers. For everyone else, a $99 fee to prop up a low value currency is a pass.
