DEN FlyBucks promo

Hey Denver fans! Here’s a reason to get up early on Saturday. Stop by the Bed Bath & Beyond in Cherry Creek between 11am and Noon (corner of 1st and University) and find our mobile billboard parked in the lot. Mention this post to the driver and receive $50 towards your next Frontier flight (while supplies last). If you can’t make it Saturday, you should still be on the lookout for that beautiful billboard cruising all around town. Be sure and wave!

I saw that FB post today. I wonder how many folks will show up at Cherry Creek. I'd like the $50, but not interested in driving 30 miles to fight the crowds. Think I'll wait to see where they go next around Denver.

I saw about 20 people waiting for the giveaway. The parking lot was packed due to a farmer's market. A security guard said that the truck would be setting up at a nearby Target instead. As I was about to leave for Target, the F9 billboard truck went by so I just followed it to the new location. I heard that others didn't learn of the new location and weren't too happy. Mixed results for F9 I'm afraid.

This has happened before for similar on-site promotions. They do not always show up at the announced destination, but instead head somewhere else in the vicinity.

Good thing F9 flights are not opoerated by the promo team.

I posted a question on their FB page last night wondering why the reason for the change when they directed everyone to BBB. The post was promptly removed this morning with nary a reply from F9.

Why not tweet a reply to @flyfrontier, where the promo was also posted? You might just get an answer, as I believe they are usually fairly responsive to "issues."

We'll let you tweet an inquiry and report back to us.

Hello Stumblefoot, looked into this problem for you. It seems that Facebook automatically marked your post as spam and filtered it out. There were also a couple other people this happened to at the same time. Your post has since been removed from the spam section so you should now see it on the wall.

Thanks Mostly Air, but I'm still not seeing it on the wall. It's weird, because I received notice of a post in a reply to my original message from Frontier tonight. No big deal. The message I received asked me to contact Frontier via their Facebook email address.

I will let everyone know what transpires.

Thanks again!

Make sure you order the results by "Everyone (Most Recent)", you can see this option on top, below the pictures to the right. It'll make it easier to find your message then, I'm able to find it.

That did it MostlyAir. Thanks for the help.

Frontier really stepped up to the plate on the Denver/Cherry Creek fiasco this weekend. They have sent me a gift card to use on a future flight. This is just a great example of how a marketing team can repair a damaged relationship and right a wrong PR bungle at the same time. Nice job Frontier!

Lucky you, maybe we should all move to DEN.

You know I would have made sure the same thing was done if he was in MKE. Remember the Midwest Airlines seat sale and the brand announcement?
