Well, I will say at first we were all fairly calm. Once they started to tell us that we were not gonna get on the flight we had to stand up for ourselves At this point we were not calm.

I WONT ever fly them…….however my husband flew them from Orlando to Harrisburg Pennsylvania. He was so excited to get his ticket for $138. The day before his flight he went on line to check luggage and found out he needed to pay another $148 for luggage and to pay for his seat. He could have carried it on for $7 less. The day he flew the kiosks were not working so he went to the counter to take care of luggage and they charged 😂🎉him ANOTHER $25 because they charged him for helping him to check in. He explained that the kiosk was not working and the rep said sorry but for me to help you it costs $25. Soooo total cost $311. DONT FLY FRONTIER……they are not customer motivated
Purchase an expensive new ticket on another airlines and then sue Frontier Airlines in small claims court for the difference. It's the only way this will stop.
if I am there I also help Mathew , David God blesses you, I will follow you , when you offer to help Mathew, everything you do will repay, Thank you so much
I’ll never fly Frontier. That’s ridiculous! You were nothing but polite. I felt so bad for Matthew.; I hope he got home with no other issues. Thank you for posting this.
I just don't know why people are still flying with them? I've heard they were crap since their inception. I thought it was common knowledge to avoid them. Unless there are dire circumstances there really is no reason to even think about Frontier being an option.
WOW....This is unreal. I cannot believe the way this guy was treated. He never raised his voice and was never rude. This really needs to go VERY viral. I will absolutely NEVER fly Frontier again. I used to y with them a lot, but never again.
Leesburg1318 i believe it depends on the airline and how the employees will treat you and it also depends on what their mood is because if you say or do something and it gets to a certain point where it bothers them then yes they’ll let you know and then they’ll get snippy. If I had worked in customer service. I would never treat anyone like this
Frontier gate agents get a % of the gate checked bags, this is why any bag considered to be over sized by them is charged so you either pay for a checked bag at the gate of your not allowed to board. Basically it's luggage extortion, it is literally cheaper to send you luggage via ups next day than take it on your flight.
Those are employees? I guess the airline doesn't have a dress code for their staff. Apparently they don't have an intelligence test for their employees either. The luggage fit the size requirements why are they harassing the passengers? I worked for a major airlines my entire life, I'm shocked at the behavior of the staff. They make it look like their passengers are inconveniencing them in some way.
How horrible for this to happen, customer service is a dying breed. Poor Matthew, I hope he makes it wherever he is traveling to. What a shame for the traveling community. SHAME ON FRONTIER AIRLINE !!!!!
I only flown with "Frontier Airlines," one time , and I will never and I mean never fly with them ever again. They charge me for baggage fees , that I already paid for. The customer service representative was rude to me. There need to be a class action lawsuit brought against for what they are doing to these customers.
Your demeanor is exceptional. Please never change as this world needs more people in it with your type of personality. ❤Sad that little brained people can make decisions to negatively impact a persons day/life. Great video. Thx
Thank you. I’ve had my fair share of blowing up on people so let’s just say The Good Lord has been working on me and I’m not taking things as personal as I used to.
Watching Matthew broke my heart. 💔Frontier need to teach their staff compassion because I do not know how they watched that poor man become that distressed and did not let that him pay for his luggage out of pure spite. Some people are miserable and evil. I will NEVER fly Frontier. I don't care how cheap they are! I pray Matthew is okay. 🙏
Mathew needs to get a credit card instead of being a baby. It’s not the airline’s responsibility to show compassion. They have a job to do and that’s what they train their employees to follow. Compassion has nothing to do with business. They’re not a bloody charity. All airlines prefer taking credit cards instead of cash because of the convenience in not having to be bothered with cash drawers.
Who said he was expecting compassion? He just wanted decent customer service, which he clearly did not get. Good businesses DO try to resolve customer service issues. Multiple customers being rejected for boarding because their bags were too big? BS LIES from spiteful staff, who were flexing on everyone because one guy was filming. Thanks to his video, though, they just lost many potential customers if the comments section is any indication.
@@MsTemptation Maybe his credit card was stolen and he only had cash? The posted offered to pay it for him. It's not compassion, it's empathy and it's a part of customer service.
We recently flew frontier from Orlando to St Martin. We were moved from the rear row (happily) due to “weight & balance issues” but then the entire crew of attendants sat in the back row the entire flight talking very loudly about inappropriate personal subjects and never even offered service. We laughed but it was bad.
How outrageous! The treatment of these customers was abhorrent and completely indefensible. I would NEVER consider flying with Frontier Airlines. It's as if the executives are trying their very best to "fly" this business into the ground. I'm going to be cheering on the Florida woman with her $100 million lawsuit.
I once caught a flight on frontier to go to Miami for like $80, I thought it was an incredible deal. I had one medium size duffle bag and I also had a Kate Spade small bag as a personal item that only had about my wallet, cellphone, cash, AirPods and cough drops or something. They charged me $100 and I was confused because the lady told me it wasn't going to be a problem, well it was. Ironically when I headed back home, I wasn't charged anything. They clearly pick and choose when to charge people, and like the people in this video, the bag fit in the thing. I also had to use a card because they wouldn't accept cash and nowhere did it say that it would be card only. It was such a disappointment.
Dang, it’s the inconsistencies that do it for me. This is why I appreciate businesses like In N Out and Chick-fil-A because no matter where you go in the state you know the type of service you’re going to receive, but that is not the case with frontier, it’s been hit or miss.
I flew Frontier from Islip to Orlando and back, they were fine. The problem is, is that Frontier hires people that have absolutely no clue on what their doing. These employees need to be FIRED ASAP. It’s unacceptable that they’re doing this to people.
Totally think that the specific employees are either having a bad day or just need more training I don’t fault them but I do think they have some responsibility.
From seeing this, I don't think I would ever fly Frontier. The claim that David is disturbing the peace is absurd. The staff just doesn't want him to film their inability to serve the public in a reasonable fashion.
I think they overbooked the flight ✈️, and didn’t want to pay you for your inconvenience. It was cheaper to give your money back, and the other passengers. I hope everyone made it home safe.
It's because if the flight was overbooked that's the airlines fault, but if they have employees makeup ridiculous lies then they can just say it was the employees' fault?
Though mysteriously would question that, how are they getting paid for how they're mistreating you and pretending they're helping, only to one hiding out whilst calmly making you tensed up.. REALLY REALLY sorry you had to be put up with this. I understand guys came and assisted to helping you direct right path get your fly back home. Regardless the trespassing was uncalled for and mistaken.
Thank you for sharing your unfortunate experience with Frontier Airlines. Thank you for being professional on your side of the counter as a law biding, civil, and a respectful human being. I always tell my wife generally speaking, that you gotta be professional on the other side of the counter as well. You did just that, especially when the police arrived and left. This helps me look at how I handle sutuations like this, especially when places of business are not being professional. I will not fly Frontier Airlines in solidarity for your's and the other unfortunate passengers that had to experience such unprofessionalism displayed by Frontier Airlines. What a disgrace of integrity in any type of business. Shame on Frontier Airlines.
Thank you, I appreciate that. Do you know other people have seen this video and thought that I was out of line or I was being a menace. And the truth is I could’ve handled the situation better which is easier said than done when you feel like you’re being treated a certain way. Thanks again for watching in for your comment. You seem like a very reasonable human being.
I bought an all-you-can-fly summer pass and haven't used it yet; I really appreciate this video, because It reminded me that I went through something like this with them before, and it was a terrible experience -- now I know to only take a shoulder bag, one I don't have to check or have weighed. You are so kind for offering to pay for the man's bag.
It's obvious they use the luggage as an excuse to deny boarding because the flight was overbooked.. Then when they realized that someone was taking photos of the luggage fitting inside, they had no excuse so they went to the back and began hiding. The reason why I would never fly on this airlines at this moment is because of safety.. If they act this way on the ground imagine what can happen in the air? I think the issue is everybody in the world right now is hiring low quality people..
No airline should be allowed to do this. When you cancel someone's flight for bs and then they have to pay some outrageous price for a different flight. Frontier should be held responsible for the difference in price seeing they did nothing to have their flight canceled.
Wow I recently flew spirit airlines. My second flight ever and a man at the counter was asking passengers if anyone was willing to pay this woman’s baggage with a card in exchange for her hundred dollar bill and I ended up doing it. At first I thought it was some sort of scam cause I didn’t know you couldn’t use cash but seeing this makes me glad I flew with spirit even though they get some shit as being a cheap airline. At least they were polite and professional.
And just to be clear, I wasn’t upset or angry at any of the employees or any police officers. I understand everyone was just trying to do their job, but I believe this is a larger problem within the company itself. And this type of policies are being pushed from the higher ups down the chain of command to the gate agents. I hope this brings awareness to everyone who is thinking about flying frontier, and what you might encounter if they over booked a flight don’t want to allow you to board or don’t want to reimburse you.
@@terriealabama7612 So wrong! He was accused by the employees of actions he did not commit. They had no problem lying about his behavior and other issues (like what luggage fits). Their lies against him have serious consequences: saying he harasses staff unmercifully could conceivably put him on the H.S. no-fly list. Or be trotted out to nullify any civil action he takes. Clearly, the Security agents there believed their every word, despite his having witnesses to testify to the contrary. Thank God he filmed. It's his only protection and proof against their lies.
The 1st cop did his best to escalate the situation. Glad you remained calm and other po po who showed up did so too (and understood the frustration dealing with that airline ... sounds like)
This is so upsetting to watch I feel so bad for everyone in this video :/ frontier needs to compensate you all for this and needs to be shut down entirely. It’s not worth the headache
Executives at Frontier don't care about any of this. As long as they continue to sell cheap tickets, loosing a few customers here and there means nothing to them.
What a terrible service! And you sir, are so respectful, kind, mature… you stayed in control all the time. I hope you follow up on this. This deserves to be reported if not sued.
Thank you for this video. People like this NEED to be exposed & held accountable for their actions, or in this case, lack of actions. I’m glad I have never used or heard of Frontier until now. I know to avoid them thanks to your video. It’s sickening to see power hungry idiots in these positions. Frontier needs to retrain their employees or fire the ones in this video. They owe these customers an apology, a refund and some sort of compensation for their inconvenience. I don’t get why people do things like this, it’s on video and they just don’t seem to care. Seriously, if you hate your job that much, start looking for another one or start your own business. With their disposition and attitude, I’d suggest an online job. Luckily there are many in this day & age.
I needed a last minute flight from IAD to DTW. Ended up on Frontier. Literally the worst non-medical experience of my life. They destroyed my brand new luggage. The level of incompetence throughout the experience was shocking. Sad to see it hasn't improved in several years.
It’s not so funny when you’re being treated like trash. These are THEIR prices. If they can’t hire folks with good sense because they don’t charge enough….they should simple charge more. As it is they charge for picking a seat, for bringing a carry on, for personal carry on, for breathing..😂
@@froggybug it’s not funny when workers are treated like trash and abused by customers paying $50 or 5k for a seat… but when one pays $50 for a budget airline instead of $500 or 5k on a major carrier, the options for rescheduling and rerouting are pretty slim.
I've flown with Frontier about 8 times and they've only started doing this about a year or so ago, they only got me once when my bag was slightly too big (they would let you force it but I had gotten lazy with packing this particular time), I'm assuming they probably observed him stuffing the bag into the test slot but because there was any resistance at all they're squeezing him for that sweet, sweet extra $90. It's like they're starting to bait people in because Frontier knows they have the cheapest prices, and then force the extra out where they can, very unfortunate. After watching this I may have to reconsider before I fly again next month 🙄 Edit: I KNEW THIS WAS DENVER THAT'S WHERE THEY GOT ME TOO! The dude was super cool though and gave me a 10% discount because he could see how mad I was but kept my cool and I'm thankful for that
Well, thank you for talking about your experience. It sounds like even though they got you you had a good attitude and overall it wasn’t a bad experience. Glad to hear that.
@@Masculine.Values paying extra is always a bad experience lol that's the whole reason people fly with Frontier in the first place! If I had known I was going to pay that much I would've at least flown direct instead of paying the same price for a layover!
Couldn't agree with you more! Their customer service is absolutely atrocious. I flew them to Cabo and will never ever fly them again. People that I was standing with, waiting for a Check-in attendant, had to change their flight because the person scheduled to check people in, leaving Cabo, decided not to show up. Trying to get anyone on the phone that spoke English was a joke. Every person was in another country.
The black security lady or cop knows the deal she gave her badge number with the quickness and knew not to get involved . She also the only professional person here.
I live in Denver, I wish I would’ve been able to help you and the other gentleman with at least a place to lay your head for the night… This is so terrible. I hate that you guys were treated this way especially in my city. Denver is an amazing place, don’t let these assholes deter you from Coming here again! The rest of our city is beautiful and kind and helpful!
Thank you for sharing this video. It was very informative. Based on your video, I will never ever fly with this airline ever. I also shared it with the rest of my family and some friends and they are never going to fly with this airline as well. This is just totally ridiculous. I’m sorry you had to go through that it’s pretty fucked up.
Thank you for your support. It wasn’t fun, but I learned a lot from it and I’m looking at the silver lining from the situation. Wish you and your family the best.
Wtf Frontier is worse than spirit! But if this was spirit passengers they wouldve tore that gate up and knocked all that stuff over; they knew what they were doing bc yall were so nice! Smh this is just horrible and sad to see how badly people treat one another but you my man are a stand up guy! 💯💛✨💫
We flew frontier here recently and were charged all these crazy fees. Then when we got to the gate to board we had to stress out about our backpacks fitting and if not being charged even more! Never again will we fly with them!
This is beyond terrible. These people are supposed to be the face of the airline. I am very grateful for this PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FLY FRONTIER. They need to be shamed.
That’s how they make you pay the same prize you’d pay for a more expensive, but more organized, better service airline. Overwhelm the business bureau with your complaints or simply don’t fly with them. Bankrupt them.
What amazes me the most is the complete surprise people express when they bought a very low fair ticket on a low fare airline and they expected to be treated like a first class passenger on a major airline. You get what you pay for. Stop buying tickets on these bum airlines! They literally don’t care about you at all.
I don’t think that we were looking for first class treatment but we paid for a ticket to board a plane and all we were trying to do is board. We weren’t asking for cocktails, fancy snacks or reclining seats.
@@Masculine.Values So what’s the lesson? Low budget airlines are a scam. They’re the Greyhound bus in the sky. See how their passenger service treated you? Now imagine the aircraft mechanics that they pay next to nothing care about their jobs. I’m sorry you were treated they way they treated you. It’s disgraceful. I hope you won’t ever travel them again.
Wow, why don't the airline take responsibility and offer better customer service. If a passenger bag fits in the bin, how can they say no even when everyone sees that it fits This is ridiculous. There should be some explanation from Frontier as to why they can refuse these bags even when it's obvious they fit in the bins . That's such an irresponsible way to conduct business.And the help at the counter doesn't seem like they're properly trained.😢
After witnessing their horrible behaviours, I will no longer fly Frontier! Thanks for putting up this video, so people knows how much of a sh*tty airlines Frontier is.
Thank you I appreciate it. The female cop was definitely awesome honest respectful, and I enjoyed having a conversation with her. I definitely have learned my lesson and have not phone with them since
This is absolutely ridiculous.. and is pitiful. Sir I’m sorry that this happened to you and the other individuals involved. I hope each and everyone of those horrible people behind that counter looks at this video and sees how horrible they are. Remember you reap what you sow.. 😊
Remember: At an airport, you have zero rights. The employees of an airline can openly make up lies about you, and you have zero recourse to defend yourself.
This should be investigated by the FAA and also the airline and if necessary remove from the job every employee involved on this type of issue. What kind of service is this? It is a shame.
I flew on frontier with my daughter, two grandsons, a bird and a cat in carriers. They assigned us front seats knowing I had booked it with animals. When we boarded we were yelled at for not knowing that we couldn’t put the animals there. They were acting very rude and put out. They eventually convinced the aisle behind us to change seating with us. The people were all too happy to do so because the front has more leg room. During our flight the stewardesses gave us many nasty looks and was giving the people in front special goodies while stating each time how they owed them for putting them out.
WHAT REALLY IS SAD: My Father worked for the 1960's Frontier Airlines where customer service was TRULY Customer Service. Employees were terminated on the spot the minute they did anything wrong. A real airline would rather get rid of the employee (CANCER) than have a bad reputation.
Great work with the Female cop. Love to see that. As for Frontier. I saw the kind of employees they hire in general, The type that almost never mayke eye contact or shows any respect. By the way those attributes I mention transcend any color, race or sexual orientation. It's the weird attitudes of there employees that were a HUGE red flag. Its systemic in this organization. So, I literally do not consider frontier an Airline. In fact, I don't think of them at all because they are not worthy of such time in my life. Here I make the exception of giving them minor thought only because they still hurt and abuse noble honest people. Frontier is like the remains of sludge left after you refine a fine metal.
You seem like a very nice man from what is on this video. Hopefully your pro demeanor was the same before the video began, and I see no reason to suspect otherwise. Fabulous calming influence and loved how supportive you were of the others without escalating anything either. I have not flown frontier in probably 30 years on advice of friends in the airline industry.
I flew Fri night Tampa to Cincinnati and the customer service was awesome. I had 3 bags, paid for 2 and they showed me how to condense. Great customer service.
Frontier needs to be investigated about harassment and false allegations.

Totally the FAA needs to get involved.

Or waive the fee. He had the money to pay for it but they didn't accept that type of currency - cash 🙄
Tamara G will always be a real g- and a good person
Mathew needs to get a credit card instead of being a baby.
It’s not the airline’s responsibility to show compassion.
They have a job to do and that’s what they train their employees to follow.
Compassion has nothing to do with business.
They’re not a bloody charity.
All airlines prefer taking credit cards instead of cash because of the convenience in not having to be bothered with cash drawers.
Who said he was expecting compassion? He just wanted decent customer service, which he clearly did not get. Good businesses DO try to resolve customer service issues. Multiple customers being rejected for boarding because their bags were too big? BS LIES from spiteful staff, who were flexing on everyone because one guy was filming. Thanks to his video, though, they just lost many potential customers if the comments section is any indication.
@@MsTemptation Maybe his credit card was stolen and he only had cash? The posted offered to pay it for him. It's not compassion, it's empathy and it's a part of customer service.
All news stations NEED TO SEE THIS
Yeah that would be nice!
We recently flew frontier from Orlando to St Martin. We were moved from the rear row (happily) due to “weight & balance issues” but then the entire crew of attendants sat in the back row the entire flight talking very loudly about inappropriate personal subjects and never even offered service. We laughed but it was bad.
Yeah, it looks like there’s a level of professionalism that may not be up to standard.
The shame Frontier should feel for this. So glad you kept your cool and recorded.
How outrageous! The treatment of these customers was abhorrent and completely indefensible.
I would NEVER consider flying with Frontier Airlines. It's as if the executives are trying their very best to "fly" this business into the ground.
I'm going to be cheering on the Florida woman with her $100 million lawsuit.
Right! I am going to try to get on this class action lawsuit also.
I once caught a flight on frontier to go to Miami for like $80, I thought it was an incredible deal. I had one medium size duffle bag and I also had a Kate Spade small bag as a personal item that only had about my wallet, cellphone, cash, AirPods and cough drops or something. They charged me $100 and I was confused because the lady told me it wasn't going to be a problem, well it was. Ironically when I headed back home, I wasn't charged anything. They clearly pick and choose when to charge people, and like the people in this video, the bag fit in the thing. I also had to use a card because they wouldn't accept cash and nowhere did it say that it would be card only. It was such a disappointment.
Dang, it’s the inconsistencies that do it for me. This is why I appreciate businesses like In N Out and Chick-fil-A because no matter where you go in the state you know the type of service you’re going to receive, but that is not the case with frontier, it’s been hit or miss.
I flew Frontier from Islip to Orlando and back, they were fine. The problem is, is that Frontier hires people that have absolutely no clue on what their doing. These employees need to be FIRED ASAP. It’s unacceptable that they’re doing this to people.
Totally think that the specific employees are either having a bad day or just need more training I don’t fault them but I do think they have some responsibility.
From seeing this, I don't think I would ever fly Frontier. The claim that David is disturbing the peace is absurd. The staff just doesn't want him to film their inability to serve the public in a reasonable fashion.
I think they overbooked the flight ✈️, and didn’t want to pay you for your inconvenience.
It was cheaper to give your money back, and the other passengers.
I hope everyone made it home safe.
I think this is exactly the situation. And then they tried to blame their bags. What a load of crap!
Yup that's exactly it
now
it makes sense manager didn't want to make the hard decision probably has anxiety and nerves with lack of sleep ......
It's because if the flight was overbooked that's the airlines fault, but if they have employees makeup ridiculous lies then they can just say it was the employees' fault?
Though mysteriously would question that, how are they getting paid for how they're mistreating you and pretending they're helping, only to one hiding out whilst calmly making you tensed up.. REALLY REALLY sorry you had to be put up with this. I understand guys came and assisted to helping you direct right path get your fly back home. Regardless the trespassing was uncalled for and mistaken.
Thank you for sharing your unfortunate experience with Frontier Airlines.
Thank you for being professional on your side of the counter as a law biding, civil, and a respectful human being.
I always tell my wife generally speaking, that you gotta be professional on the other side of the counter as well. You did just that, especially when the police arrived and left.
This helps me look at how I handle sutuations like this, especially when places of business are not being professional.
I will not fly Frontier Airlines in solidarity for your's and the other unfortunate passengers that had to experience such unprofessionalism displayed by Frontier Airlines.
What a disgrace of integrity in any type of business. Shame on Frontier Airlines.
Thank you, I appreciate that. Do you know other people have seen this video and thought that I was out of line or I was being a menace. And the truth is I could’ve handled the situation better which is easier said than done when you feel like you’re being treated a certain way. Thanks again for watching in for your comment. You seem like a very reasonable human being.
I bought an all-you-can-fly summer pass and haven't used it yet; I really appreciate this video, because It reminded me that I went through something like this with them before, and it was a terrible experience -- now I know to only take a shoulder bag, one I don't have to check or have weighed.
You are so kind for offering to pay for the man's bag.
I hope the summer pass works out for you. Just be smart and only take a small bag that won’t be questioned. Wish you the best.
It's obvious they use the luggage as an excuse to deny boarding because the flight was overbooked.. Then when they realized that someone was taking photos of the luggage fitting inside, they had no excuse so they went to the back and began hiding. The reason why I would never fly on this airlines at this moment is because of safety.. If they act this way on the ground imagine what can happen in the air? I think the issue is everybody in the world right now is hiring low quality people..
No airline should be allowed to do this. When you cancel someone's flight for bs and then they have to pay some outrageous price for a different flight. Frontier should be held responsible for the difference in price seeing they did nothing to have their flight canceled.
Wow I recently flew spirit airlines. My second flight ever and a man at the counter was asking passengers if anyone was willing to pay this woman’s baggage with a card in exchange for her hundred dollar bill and I ended up doing it. At first I thought it was some sort of scam cause I didn’t know you couldn’t use cash but seeing this makes me glad I flew with spirit even though they get some shit as being a cheap airline. At least they were polite and professional.
Wow that’s wild how they won’t take cash.
What a GREAT officer to take the time to explain everything without getting heated or butt hurt! I wish every officer was patient like that!
She was terrific!
And just to be clear, I wasn’t upset or angry at any of the employees or any police officers. I understand everyone was just trying to do their job, but I believe this is a larger problem within the company itself. And this type of policies are being pushed from the higher ups down the chain of command to the gate agents.
I hope this brings awareness to everyone who is thinking about flying frontier, and what you might encounter if they over booked a flight don’t want to allow you to board or don’t want to reimburse you.
It is really antisocial behavior to video clerks. Some day there will be better worker protection laws.
@@terriealabama7612 So wrong! He was accused by the employees of actions he did not commit. They had no problem lying about his behavior and other issues (like what luggage fits). Their lies against him have serious consequences: saying he harasses staff unmercifully could conceivably put him on the H.S. no-fly list. Or be trotted out to nullify any civil action he takes. Clearly, the Security agents there believed their every word, despite his having witnesses to testify to the contrary.
Thank God he filmed. It's his only protection and proof against their lies.
@@terriealabama7612 protection from what?
@TerrieAlabama which one was you in the video and how long have you been working for Frontier
The 1st cop did his best to escalate the situation. Glad you remained calm and other po po who showed up did so too (and understood the frustration dealing with that airline ... sounds like)
This is so upsetting to watch I feel so
bad for everyone in this video :/ frontier needs to compensate you all for this and needs to be shut down entirely. It’s not worth the headache
Thank you so much for helping Mathew, God bless you man.
I tried to help, but in all reality, he was a casualty of the situation.
Matt crying broke my heart to pieces😭
Rightttt!!! I'm sitting here crying.
Heartbreaking. I hope he made it home ok.
I’ll be damned if they denied my service and were rude at that! Them employees all need to be fired asap
This is what happens when there’s no competition they feel they’re empowered cause we have no choices
They are one of the lowest priced so it’s appealing at first.
I am glad you filmed it as well. Something real funky is going on with Frontier Airlines. Wow riddled in incompetence.
I’m glad I filmed it as well. Thank you!
Executives at Frontier don't care about any of this. As long as they continue to sell cheap tickets, loosing a few customers here and there means nothing to them.
What a terrible service! And you sir, are so respectful, kind, mature… you stayed in control all the time. I hope you follow up on this. This deserves to be reported if not sued.
Thank you for this video. People like this NEED to be exposed & held accountable for their actions, or in this case, lack of actions.
I’m glad I have never used or heard of Frontier until now. I know to avoid them thanks to your video.
It’s sickening to see power hungry idiots in these positions. Frontier needs to retrain their employees or fire the ones in this video. They owe these customers an apology, a refund and some sort of compensation for their inconvenience. I don’t get why people do things like this, it’s on video and they just don’t seem to care. Seriously, if you hate your job that much, start looking for another one or start your own business. With their disposition and attitude, I’d suggest an online job. Luckily there are many in this day & age.
Thanks for watching. Thanks for your concern. And thanks for your comment. I hope every airline can learn from this.
I needed a last minute flight from IAD to DTW. Ended up on Frontier. Literally the worst non-medical experience of my life. They destroyed my brand new luggage. The level of incompetence throughout the experience was shocking. Sad to see it hasn't improved in several years.
I’m guessing there was no resolve or any type of reimbursement to you?
@@Masculine.Values Nope. They said they only cover corners. It looked like an industrial blade sliced it open diagonally... but the corners were good.
When you pay $50 for a flight…
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It’s not so funny when you’re being treated like trash. These are THEIR prices. If they can’t hire folks with good sense because they don’t charge enough….they should simple charge more. As it is they charge for picking a seat, for bringing a carry on, for personal carry on, for breathing..😂
@@froggybug it’s not funny when workers are treated like trash and abused by customers paying $50 or 5k for a seat… but when one pays $50 for a budget airline instead of $500 or 5k on a major carrier, the options for rescheduling and rerouting are pretty slim.
Don’t fly Frontier again. Don’t fly Spirit either. I’m the long run your discounted tix end up costing you big time. SWA fan all the way.
💯💯💯💯
Right!
Ferengi Airlines where our motto is, "Once you've got their money, NEVER GIVE IT BACK!!!"
Ha! I’ll say that frontier has definitely lost a lot of customers and dollars because of videos like this that people are posting.
I've flown with Frontier about 8 times and they've only started doing this about a year or so ago, they only got me once when my bag was slightly too big (they would let you force it but I had gotten lazy with packing this particular time), I'm assuming they probably observed him stuffing the bag into the test slot but because there was any resistance at all they're squeezing him for that sweet, sweet extra $90.
It's like they're starting to bait people in because Frontier knows they have the cheapest prices, and then force the extra out where they can, very unfortunate. After watching this I may have to reconsider before I fly again next month 🙄
Edit: I KNEW THIS WAS DENVER THAT'S WHERE THEY GOT ME TOO! The dude was super cool though and gave me a 10% discount because he could see how mad I was but kept my cool and I'm thankful for that
Well, thank you for talking about your experience. It sounds like even though they got you you had a good attitude and overall it wasn’t a bad experience. Glad to hear that.
@@Masculine.Values paying extra is always a bad experience lol that's the whole reason people fly with Frontier in the first place! If I had known I was going to pay that much I would've at least flown direct instead of paying the same price for a layover!
Frontier gets a commission each time they charge a bag for not fitting.
They make around $10 each time they charge someone for a bag not fitting.
I believe it.
This makes me think of competency of the pilot and flight crew
Couldn't agree with you more! Their customer service is absolutely atrocious. I flew them to Cabo and will never ever fly them again. People that I was standing with, waiting for a Check-in attendant, had to change their flight because the person scheduled to check people in, leaving Cabo, decided not to show up. Trying to get anyone on the phone that spoke English was a joke. Every person was in another country.
Wow, that’s not. OK goodness gracious what is happening?
This Flight was likely oversold and they didn't have any good solution for this dude so they just ignored him
100% agreed. You know your company profits more if you don’t let people board but still charge him that’s a good way to make a lot of money..
I just enabled comments. Hopefully this gets Frontiers attention to make changes.
Did you file a complaint and what was their response ? I’m sorry this happened to you .
It wont... as long as people keep flying on them.
Unfreaking believable !!! And kudos to you David for keeping your cool!
Consider yourselves luckiest than most Sir,
Sincerely,
This Universe.”
Thank you
He dealt with that so professionally so calm and respectful.
The black security lady or cop knows the deal she gave her badge number with the quickness and knew not to get involved . She also the only professional person here.
She was 100% respectful and real. I enjoyed speaking with her.
I have always found officers of African heritage to be the most civilised, courteous and humane.
I live in Denver, I wish I would’ve been able to help you and the other gentleman with at least a place to lay your head for the night… This is so terrible. I hate that you guys were treated this way especially in my city. Denver is an amazing place, don’t let these assholes deter you from Coming here again! The rest of our city is beautiful and kind and helpful!
Video with over 200k views is better than a hidden lawsuit that takes years you get instant results when people speak with their wallets
I believe they’re losing so much money because of my video and others just like it.
Thank you for sharing this video. It was very informative. Based on your video, I will never ever fly with this airline ever. I also shared it with the rest of my family and some friends and they are never going to fly with this airline as well. This is just totally ridiculous. I’m sorry you had to go through that it’s pretty fucked up.
Thank you for your support. It wasn’t fun, but I learned a lot from it and I’m looking at the silver lining from the situation. Wish you and your family the best.
Wtf Frontier is worse than spirit! But if this was spirit passengers they wouldve tore that gate up and knocked all that stuff over; they knew what they were doing bc yall were so nice! Smh this is just horrible and sad to see how badly people treat one another but you my man are a stand up guy! 💯💛✨💫
You are a good man stay safe ! I hope Matthew will be okay ❤
I just subscribed because of how great you were in this situation!
Haha well thank you. I I definitely could have done better always room to improve. But thank you. I appreciate that.
@@Masculine.Values I thought you were very polite and respectful. Thanks to you…….. I would never fly Frontier….. did they ever reach out to you?
We flew frontier here recently and were charged all these crazy fees. Then when we got to the gate to board we had to stress out about our backpacks fitting and if not being charged even more! Never again will we fly with them!
Paying a little more saves a great deal of trouble.
OMG exactly the same thing happened to my family with these Frontier workers at our stop at Denver airport 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Really, when did this happen?
😢 denver
This is beyond terrible.
These people are supposed to be the face of the airline. I am very grateful for this PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT.
NO FLY FRONTIER. They need to be shamed.
That’s how they make you pay the same prize you’d pay for a more expensive, but more organized, better service airline. Overwhelm the business bureau with your complaints or simply don’t fly with them. Bankrupt them.
True true
What amazes me the most is the complete surprise people express when they bought a very low fair ticket on a low fare airline and they expected to be treated like a first class passenger on a major airline.
You get what you pay for. Stop buying tickets on these bum airlines! They literally don’t care about you at all.
I don’t think that we were looking for first class treatment but we paid for a ticket to board a plane and all we were trying to do is board. We weren’t asking for cocktails, fancy snacks or reclining seats.
@@Masculine.Values
So what’s the lesson? Low budget airlines are a scam. They’re the Greyhound bus in the sky. See how their passenger service treated you? Now imagine the aircraft mechanics that they pay next to nothing care about their jobs.
I’m sorry you were treated they way they treated you. It’s disgraceful. I hope you won’t ever travel them again.
Wow, why don't the airline take responsibility and offer better customer service. If a passenger bag fits in the bin, how can they say no even when everyone sees that it fits
This is ridiculous. There should be some explanation from Frontier as to why they can refuse these bags even when it's obvious they fit in the bins . That's such an irresponsible way to conduct business.And the help at the counter doesn't seem like they're properly trained.😢
They overbooked the flight so they made up lies
My whole family flew Frontier two years ago. Never again...!!
What happen?
The guy did something wrong, he booked a flight on frontier!
Haha! Finally some reasonable people. Love this.
Thanks for the advice!!
No problem!!
I like how these employees don't even acknowledge his presence
It is not okay and it was not okay.
I really hope they learn from the situation. I learned from it.
I feel sorry for everyone. I admire your calmness. I hope Matthew found a way to go home.
I praise you my friend God bless you … u know what your getting flying frontier
Thank you 😂
After witnessing their horrible behaviours, I will no longer fly Frontier! Thanks for putting up this video, so people knows how much of a sh*tty airlines Frontier is.
Thank you! Appreciate the support.
Thank you I appreciate it. The female cop was definitely awesome honest respectful, and I enjoyed having a conversation with her. I definitely have learned my lesson and have not phone with them since
Lesson learned! NEVER Frontier! Thanks for shining a light on this.
Seeing Matthew break down broke me 🥺💔I’m so sorry you all had such a terrible experience 😢
Sorry you went through this. What a nightmare. You were such a sweetheart and calm and relaxed. And you are fine af!
Thank you for your kind comments.
This is absolutely ridiculous.. and is pitiful. Sir I’m sorry that this happened to you and the other individuals involved. I hope each and everyone of those horrible people behind that counter looks at this video and sees how horrible they are. Remember you reap what you sow.. 😊
Call corporate and file a complaint. Don’t let this slide.
Remember:
At an airport, you have zero rights.
The employees of an airline can openly make up lies about you, and you have zero recourse to defend yourself.
That’s very unfortunate.
Lovely customer support... never flying this clown service! Thank you for revealing this!
Poor Mathew! Just wanted to give him a hug 😢
Dude was going through it
This should be investigated by the FAA and also the airline and if necessary remove from the job every employee involved on this type of issue. What kind of service is this? It is a shame.
Well first mistake was booking with Frontier ugh
I flew on frontier with my daughter, two grandsons, a bird and a cat in carriers. They assigned us front seats knowing I had booked it with animals. When we boarded we were yelled at for not knowing that we couldn’t put the animals there. They were acting very rude and put out. They eventually convinced the aisle behind us to change seating with us. The people were all too happy to do so because the front has more leg room. During our flight the stewardesses gave us many nasty looks and was giving the people in front special goodies while stating each time how they owed them for putting them out.
Wow, I’m sorry! That’s not okay.
WHAT REALLY IS SAD: My Father worked for the 1960's Frontier Airlines where customer service was TRULY Customer Service. Employees were terminated on the spot the minute they did anything wrong. A real airline would rather get rid of the employee (CANCER) than have a bad reputation.
Just looking at the caliber of employees that they hire says it all. Those are not up to any standard.
Great work with the Female cop. Love to see that. As for Frontier. I saw the kind of employees they hire in general, The type that almost never mayke eye contact or shows any respect. By the way those attributes I mention transcend any color, race or sexual orientation. It's the weird attitudes of there employees that were a HUGE red flag. Its systemic in this organization. So, I literally do not consider frontier an Airline. In fact, I don't think of them at all because they are not worthy of such time in my life. Here I make the exception of giving them minor thought only because they still hurt and abuse noble honest people. Frontier is like the remains of sludge left after you refine a fine metal.
You seem like a very nice man from what is on this video. Hopefully your pro demeanor was the same before the video began, and I see no reason to suspect otherwise. Fabulous calming influence and loved how supportive you were of the others without escalating anything either. I have not flown frontier in probably 30 years on advice of friends in the airline industry.
I flew Fri night Tampa to Cincinnati and the customer service was awesome. I had 3 bags, paid for 2 and they showed me how to condense. Great customer service.
