Frontier Airlines will return to Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport in late summer 2026 with service to Las Vegas, restoring a station the carrier last served in 2023. The airline is also adding Boise–Las Vegas, extending its low-cost push into a corridor that has already seen capacity churn after Spirit’s collapse.
The Oakland–Las Vegas route starts 20 August and is scheduled 11 times weekly, while Boise–Las Vegas begins 10 September with four weekly frequencies. Frontier is pitching introductory fares from $49, a pricing move aimed at stimulating leisure demand and defending share against legacy carriers and other ultra-low-cost operators.
The return to OAK gives Frontier a cleaner West Coast footprint and another foothold in a market where schedule discipline and unit cost management will matter as much as fare stimulation. Operators should expect the competitive response on Las Vegas to tighten quickly.
