Frontier Airlines World MasterCard Review
Card Offers: Being one of the newest of the ultra low cost carriers, Frontier Airlines has to find a way out of the "Spirit or Allegiant" group before they become one of the least wanted of airlines. That's when they released the Frontier World MasterCard, a great card ( requiring excellent credit ) to score yourself to roundtrip flights. Its probably one of the "least offering" of all cards, but we can have a look at this $69 annual fee card.
Earning Points: Earning Points can be pretty easy, yet too simple, with this card. First is that you will earn 40,000 bonus points after making $500 in purchases within the first 90 days of the card opening. Also, you can earn 2X points for making flight bookings on flyfrontier.com, and also 1 point per $ in other purchases. One great way to pull up to award travel is Rocketmiles, where you can earn a lot of points for booking hotels! Every stay gets you a minimum of 1,000-5,000 points! Also, for the first 90 days, every balance transfer you make gets you one point per $, and you can only transfer up to $10,000, getting you up to 10,000 points.

Redeeming Points: Of course the common way is to redeem for roundtrip flights. Frontier Airlines has one way flights start at 10,000, and of course roundtrip start at 20,000! So the 40,000 points are actually worth 4 one way, or 2 roundtrip! Not bad of a deal! Also, the common way is to use them for magazines, but I doubt anyone uses points for magazines. That's it. And these are not tier qualifying points.
Airline Offers: Well.....your miles don't expire? No blackout dates? That's it actually.
Verdict: Frontier Airlines has been lowering its expectations as it is the new ultra low cost carrier, but this card has basically just brought passengers for the free flights, and not anywhere is it close to their service or expectations. The least they could've done is given a drink voucher per flight as they do charge for drinks, or maybe even a free carry on? Well, if you just want a free roundtrip ticket, actually 2, then this card is fine for you, but otherwise, I would not recommend this card.
