Pros:
- One of the few programs left with a 500 mile minimum
- Two elite tiers with decent perks for an airline that can't offer upgrades
- Expiry date on miles seems fair

Cons:
- For whatever reason, Frontier gives lower mileage credit on flights compared to similar airlines. PHX-DEN nets 589 miles while on UA/US you earn 602.

I have never tried to redeem my miles so I can't judge based on that.
