Frontier Airlines Special Assistance

Last updated: 31 October 2026.

Frontier provides wheelchairs and accepts mobility devices at no charge.

Wheelchairs and disability help

• Add a wheelchair or other Special Service through the website (Manage Travel, then Special Services for each passenger), the app (My Trips) or the Accessibility Request Form.
• At the airport, tell a skycap at the curb or a representative at the ticket counter; a wheelchair is provided. You can also ask for help to and from the gate and with boarding and exiting.
• Wheelchairs (manual or electric, folding or not), scooters, walkers, canes and crutches travel free. The cabin has space for two wheelchairs, each no larger than 40 x 13 x 50 inches and 70 lb; others go in the cargo hold. Non-collapsible and battery-powered devices can be checked at the counter or gate; batteries may have to be removed and packed separately. Attach identification to a device you check.
• A safety assistant is required if a passenger cannot understand safety instructions because of a mental disability, cannot assist in their own evacuation because of a severe mobility impairment, or has severe hearing and vision impairments and cannot communicate with crew. A personal care assistant may also travel to help with feeding, the lavatory or medical care.
