Summary

Spirit and Frontier Airlines are ending change and cancellation fees to boost business and comply with DOT crackdowns on junk fees. Spirit allows free changes up to an hour before departure, while Frontier introduces new service tiers with bundled perks like seat selection and baggage. These shifts mark a significant departure from the ultra-low-cost model that previously relied on extensive ancillary charges.
