Frontier Airlines gets a head start on cancelling flights at DIA ahead of snowstorm

Frontier Airlines has canceled more than 50 flights and is giving passengers broad leeway in rescheduling travel plans in advance of the winter storm that could drop up to 10 inches of snow Wednesday in the Denver metro area. The airline started cancelling flights Wednesday morning and adding more cancellations during the day. The early cancellation announcements and liberal rescheduling parameters are part of a concerted effort to improve customer service after 7 out of 10 Frontier flights in and out of Denver were delayed or canceled during winter storm “Decima” in early December. “It’s a very passenger-friendly way of dealing with winter weather,” said a Frontier spokesman. “We’re being proactive in giving passengers a chance to pick the flights that meet their travel plans.” <br/>
