Announcement for "The New Frontier"

Got a marketing email today: https://www.flyfrontier.com/newfrontier/
* Bundle pricing is offered as part of the initial flight selection page
* Seems like they are retiring "the works" and "the perks" in favor of calling the options "economy, premium, and business bundles"
* flight credits now expire after 12 months (think this is actually the new DOT rule being spun as a new feature)
* phone agents are back for elite members and those traveling in less than 24 hours
* 2,500 bonus if you c an find a lower fare for anything other than the basic (unbundled) fare

Nothing revolutionary, but nice to have the phone agents back. The new flight selection page is kind of ugly but its useful, and I think it's smart from a marketing standpoint. The rules for claiming the 2,500 bonus miles make it seem like it's going to be a pain claiming those... and not very useful for gold+ elite members who get all the benefits of the 'economy bundle' anyway unless they change how buying works such that elites get the bundle at purchase time instead of having to individually add seats and carry on for free.
