Frontier Airlines has announced several new routes, including its first-ever service to Paine Field in Everett, Washington, and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. The airline aims to capitalize on passenger demand with these new additions.

The ultra-low-cost carrier will launch four routes this spring, marking its inaugural services from Seattle Paine Field International Airport (PAE) and Gregorio Luperón International Airport in Puerto Plata (POP). Frontier already operates flights to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), and the added service at Paine Field is intended to provide more convenient and affordable options for consumers in the greater Seattle area and Western Washington.

Josh Flyr, vice president of network and operations design at Frontier Airlines, said:
