Frequently asked questions
Yes. Frontier Airlines allows miles to be transferred to heirs upon the death of a member. The executor or heir must provide a certified copy of the death certificate of the member or a letter from the executor. If there are multiple heirs or executors, miles are divided as directed by court documents.
Heirs without an existing FRONTIER Miles account can enroll in the program to receive their share of miles. Alternatively, they can submit written permission to waive their rights, and those miles are divided among the remaining heirs.
The published FRONTIER Miles Terms and Conditions do not specify a fee for post-death transfers. Contact customer service at 602-333-5925 to confirm current fee policies.
After the transfer is complete, the recipient can use the miles according to the program's standard terms. Document the deceased account holder's details to make this process easier for your executor or family.
