Frontier's GoWild Pass Comes With Major Hidden Restrictions

Frontier Airlines’ all-you-can-fly GoWild pass has delivered frustration instead of flexibility for some customers who purchased the $699 travel deal. The GoWild pass allows unlimited flights, domestic or international, over a three-month period. But the pass comes with major restrictions that Frontier does not proactively advertise, leaving some feeling misled. The biggest constraint is that GoWild pass holders cannot book domestic flights more than 24 hours before departure. They can reserve international flights up to 10 days out. This limited advance booking window has made it impossible for some pass holders to plan trips and book preferred flights. Denise Smith,

This may seem like a sad story because it begins with a boy with few memories of his father, who died when he was 7 years old. It’s why Mitch Goldstone cherishes his only picture with his dad — a snapshot at Disneyland taken during the late 1960s, when the concept of people reflexively reaching for smartphone cameras in their pockets could only happen in Tomorrowland. But this story, and the personal stories that follow, aren’t sad at all. And a half-century later and more, Goldstone has done something with that memory. He is pursuing a career focused on the
