Frontier Airlines launches nonstop service from Nashville to Phoenix with a pretty sweet deal

Frontier Airlines is expanding its nonstop flight services, adding a leg from Nashville to Phoenix three times a week.

The service is launching Thursday, Jan. 5, and to celebrate, the airline is offering fares as low as $49.

Frontier currently offers non-stop services from Nashville to Denver, Las Vegas, Orlando and Philadelphia.

Nashville is one of 10 cities included in the expansion. Flight service will start being offered less frequently until the week of Feb. 19 when it will expand to three times a week.

“We’re thrilled to be connecting Nashville to one of the most popular vacation destinations in the Southwestern United States,” said Daniel Shurz, a senior vice president at Frontier Airlines.
