Frontier Airlines will halt four weekly flights from the home of Notre Dame University to Denver in September. The South Bend, Ind. Tribune quoted airport officials as saying the service was not profitable when it came to connecting to flights from Denver to the West Coast. Frontier recently launched service from New Castle Airport (Wilmington/Philadelphia (ILG).
Frontier faced competition in the South Bend market with feeder airlines for United and Delta offering service, as well as discounter Allegiant. Frontier is the only carrier at New Castle, until this month had been without commercial service for several years. Frontier had four weekly flights to Denver from South Bend.
Frontier offers ten weekly flights from New Castle, including four to Denver. The carrier also flies to Florida destinations, Houston and Chicago Midway.
Frontier has been offering the Denver service from West Bend for less than a year..
