Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport Gains New Frontier Airlines Service to Kansas City

“The introduction of a competitive air service alternative for people flying between the Twin Cities and Kansas City is great for consumers, providing more scheduling options and keeping fares in check,” said Jeff Hamiel, executive director of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, which owns and operates Minneapolis-St. Paul International (MSP) and six general aviation airports. “I am very pleased to see Frontier Airlines expand operations at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.”

Frontier Airlines will offer two flights a day Monday through Saturday and one flight on Sundays from MSP to Kansas City International with departures at 9:15 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., depending on day of the week. Return flights arrive at 8:45 a.m. and 3:55 p.m., depending on day of the week.

Our new service between Minneapolis and Kansas City highlights Frontier commitment to providing our guests affordable and convenient travel to more destinations, said Daniel Shurz, vice president of strategy and planning. With our better and different service, we’re looking forward to providing travelers a choice in how they travel.
