I still need to take the direct flight, but my frustration is that if I were to change the times, I would be charged a hefty fee for each leg, so shoudln't the airline give me at least a credit for accepting their new (not even close to the original) times? I'm sure someone out there knows a lot more about this than me, or how realistic it is to expect something from the airline for inconveniencing me. Thanks in advance!
They will give you a full refund, upon request, due to the schedule change. You may re-book with Frontier or just make a new reservation with another airline.
Not that I would encourage you to
not fly Frontier, but Southwest has nonstops on sale from $69 each way, with all different times available. They would get you there in an hour. I would not wait to book, though, as they announced that they are raising their fares, due to higher fuel costs.
