“In recent months, Frontier has announced significant reductions to its Milwaukee flight schedule as part of a companywide effort to return to profitability,” a message posted on Frontier’s website states. “We realize that the reductions may inconvenience Frontier EarlyReturns members and make it difficult to earn and use the Frontier EarlyReturns miles they already have.”

Frontier is making the conversion offer as a “courtesy” to its frequent fliers who reside in Wisconsin, according to the statement.

Mile conversions will be done on an even basis. For example, 1,000 EarlyReturns miles will equal 1,000 Delta miles.

Frontier frequent fliers must register by Aug. 31 if interested in making the conversion. The offer is limited to program participants with valid Wisconsin addresses, the website states.

To participate in the offer, all EarlyReturns miles must be converted to Delta frequent flier miles.

In an email sent to members of Frontier’s EarlyReturns program, the airline noted that Delta is growing its presence in Milwaukee, and by July expects to have 31 nonstop flights each weekday from Milwaukee to Atlanta, Cincinnati, Detroit, Memphis, Minneapolis-St. Paul and New York City’s two major airports, John F. Kennedy International and LaGuardia.

Delta and Delta Connection carriers serve more than 340 destinations worldwide — offering travelers “nearly unlimited travel opportunities from Milwaukee,” the email states.

Frontier had operated a hub at Mitchell until beginning a series a drastic service cuts late last year. Additional cuts that went into effect at the beginning of June leave Frontier with just seven daily departures at Mitchell, compared with 86 last year.

Indianapolis-based Republic Airways Holdings Inc. purchased Frontier and Midwest Airlines, which had been based in Oak Creek, in separate deals in 2009. Frontier eventually absorbed the Midwest brand and operations.

Fine I suppose, I just get really nervous these days when we do anything hand in hand with that vile beast Republic especially after the trash they've been spewing about their C Series/Skyteam ambitions. They need to liquidate. Period.
