New airline taking off from the Alamo City

San Antonio’s potential for increased tourism and attracting new businesses received a boost this week from Frontier Airlines.

The Denver based carrier is launching new non-stop services in May between the Alamo City and Las Vegas NV, Denver CO, Atlanta GA and Philadelphia PA.

The residents of America’s seventh largest city will also benefit from increased competition on these popular routes.

Frontier plans on offering initial promotional fares on these routes as low as $19 one way.
