Frontier to drop Allentown, arrives in Mesa, Arizona

Frontier Airlines (2nd) (Denver) has announced it will suspend its nonstop service between Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE), in Allentown, Pennsylvania and Orlando International Airport (MCO) effective on April 7, 2013. Flights after April 7, 2013, will be removed from the carrier’s schedule on Sunday, Nov. 18, 2012.

“Frontier is committed to providing its customers with convenient, low-fare service and relies heavily on airports keeping their costs competitive,” said Greg Aretakis, Frontier’s vice president, network and revenue. “Unfortunately, increasing fuel and other operating costs at Lehigh Valley International Airport have made it impossible to provide the low fares customers demand and, ultimately, we made the business decision to suspend our service.”

ABE serves the Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton (hence the ABE code) in eastern Pennsylvania.

In other news, Frontier Airlines yesterday (November 15) launched nonstop service from its hometown hub in Denver, Colorado (DEN) to Phoenix-Mesa, Ariz. (AZA) with daily nonstop service. This addition to Frontier’s long-standing service to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport provides East Valley customers convenient access to Denver with easy connections to 43 destinations through Denver.

Following is the schedule for Frontier’s Phoenix-Mesa service:
