Frontier Air Adding Nonstop Flights From Portland To Miami

I'm definitely that guy that likes to travel. I love impromptu spontaneous trips. Now if I can do it with a reasonable cost direct flight, I'm even more happy.

Let me introduce you to one of my new favorite friends, Frontier Airlines. No, Frontier Airlines and I don't go way back, they just recently joined my inner circle of friends when they announced that they will be adding direct flights from the Portland International Jetport to Miami, three days a week, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays beginning November 1st according to an article by the Bangor Daily News.

Now keep in mind Frontier Airlines is a budget value airline, so that means no frills, limited bags, but great pricing!

What's even better than that is Frontier also plans to add several other direct, nonstop flights to nine cities right out of Portland.

As it stands now Frontier Airlines has already several great destinations out of Portland, like Atlanta, Myrtle Beach, Tampa, Orlando, Fort Myers, Philly, and even Denver.

In general, the Portland International Jetport has been seeing some great additions across multiple airlines that have expanded travel options out, and into Portland.

There has been no word on travel protocol changes since the recent uptick in Delta variant Covid-19 cases but, as we have all come to terms with recently things can change quickly. Travel or trip insurance can help ease that should things change.

So if the rest of summer doesn't treat us well, it's nice to know we can hop, skip, or jump to Portland and hop on a reasonable priced nonstop flight to Miami where the odds are a little better of getting more than one sunny, warm day in a row.

LOOK: See America's 50 Best Beach Towns

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.
