As long as you don’t buy a ticket like this one flight attendant did.
she comes down the jetbridge and complains she had to purchase a bag for $65.
when I go up to the gate to find out it turns out she didn’t list for jump seat on id90. she purchased a fare online so she’s a paying renevue passenger so I couldn’t do anything about the bag fee.
as long as you list jumpseat you get a free carry on and a free checked bag to your listing.

Yet another Poke the Bear example of what management thinks of us.
It’s embarrassing and a constant reminder of what a sleeze bag group of leaders we have.

I recently took my family on a flight with Frontier. We all had standby fares through myidtravel. I would have listed for Jumpseat, but I waited until night before and couldn't figure out how to list using ID90 website. When we showed up for flight (I was in uniform) I had to pay full price for checked bags. I don't remember how much, but remember thinking this is almost as much as buying regular ticket
