Frontier Airlines just announced a major expansion, with its first-ever service to South America, introducing new nonstop international routes from Orlando International Airport, according to Frontier. The airline applied for authorization with Colombia’s civil aviation authority, Aerocivil, to launch the flights, according to WFTV9.

The new routes will launch in December, and they will connect Orlando International Airport (MCO) to El Dorado International Airport in Bogotá (BOG), Rafael Núñez International Airport in Cartagena (CTG), and José María Córdova International Airport in Medellín (MDE). To celebrate the brand-new service and the airline’s introduction to Colombia, Frontier is offering fares starting at $99.

“This is an exciting day for Frontier and for travelers as we announce our first-ever service to South America,” said vice president of public and consumer affairs at Frontier Airlines, Tyri Squyres. “We believe there is strong, unmet demand for low-cost travel between Orlando and Colombia, and we look forward to offering affordable flight options between these two magnificent destinations.”
