Frontier Launches $99 Nashville to Las Vegas Nonstop Flights

Two Party Cities, One $99 Ticket

Frontier Airlines just linked up two of America’s biggest party towns. On June 11, the budget carrier launched four weekly nonstops between Nashville International Airport (BNA) and Las Vegas’s Harry Reid International Airport (LAS). That brings Frontier's direct menu out of Music City up to five destinations.

Introductory fares start at $99 one-way, though catching one takes good timing. You have until 11:59 p.m. Eastern on June 18, 2026, to snag the deal, which applies to nonstop flights through November 19, 2026. You'll need to book at least 14 days in advance, and discount seats only show up on select days. You don't need a round-trip ticket to get the low fare, but don't plan on a July 4th getaway—July 2 through July 6, 2026, is completely blacked out.

Four flights a week hits a sweet spot if you're looking to swap Broadway honky-tonks for Vegas casinos without handing half your paycheck to a legacy carrier. Just double-check schedule details before booking a hotel room—times and frequencies on budget airlines can shift fast.

Budget Airline, Bigger Ambitions

This connection doesn't come out of nowhere. Denver-based Frontier is pushing hard on a brand overhaul called "The New Frontier," trying to execute a tricky balance: sell dirt-cheap base fares while pitching upgrades that feel surprisingly like traditional airline comforts.

UpFront Plus leads that push. Set in the plane's first two rows, it offers extra legroom, broader elbow space, and a blocked middle seat—actual breathing room without buying two tickets. By 2026, Frontier also plans to introduce full First Class seating, chasing genuine cabin comfort at prices that won't wreck your vacation budget.

"We are delighted to launch this new route to Las Vegas, offering high-value travel to another popular tourist destination from Nashville," said Josh Flyr, vice president of network and operations design at Frontier Airlines. "We are laser-focused on redefining what consumers can expect from low-fare travel – from our expansive network to the premium upgrades we offer – and we look forward to welcoming passengers on board our new flights to Vegas."

It fits right into the carrier's recent push out West, following moves like Frontier Expands West With Boise-Las Vegas Route to hook vacationers. Beyond added cities, the airline is dangling serious perks for frequent flyers, like unlimited companion passes for elite status holders. Better yet, you aren't locked into one travel partner—you can swap companions on every single flight.

How to Make the Loyalty Program Work for You

Planning on regular trips between Tennessee and Nevada? Pay attention to Frontier Miles. The program rewards dollars spent rather than raw air miles flown. Base members earn 10 miles per $1 spent on Frontier purchases, scaling up to a 20X multiplier at top status tiers.

Earning elite status happens faster here than almost anywhere else in North America, requiring just 10,000 points. Crossing that threshold unlocks perks that usually nickel-and-dime budget travelers: priority boarding, seat selection at no cost, and free checked or carry-on luggage. Signing up won't cost you a dime.

Families traveling together can also lean into family pooling if one member holds status, combining everyone's miles into a central account to score award seats faster. If you're looking to sidestep extra budget airline fees, working those point multipliers is the cleanest way around them.
