Aug21 10K Miles bonus
I just saw this when I checked the Frontier site. Book a round-trip (or two one-ways) by the end of the month and get 10,000 bonus miles. They do not count toward elite status but are certainly worthwhile in addition to the underlying mileage earning. Flights can be booked thru the end of the year.

There are plenty of $30-40 flights in September.
I am about 9k short of getting 50k status. While this is not a X3 elite miles bonus, it sure goes a long way to making one day turn around mileage runs worthwhile.

Yeah, it actually incentivizes short hauls, which can go for as low as $15 each way for DD members from ATL.
Maybe part of the motivation is to get more people excited about the FF program. I think they've been too aggressive on the mileage expiration (in non-Covid times) and the international awards still look overpriced on miles. It's probably controlled by computer algorithm but they tend to rise from 10K to 20K domestically for a one-way even in some cases where the paid fare is still two figures.
