Low-cost carrier Frontier Airlines announced Thursday that the company has added new non-stop service in 42 markets throughout the United States.

Frontier Airlines also announced the new routes will begin taking flight in April, with the company celebrating the additional service by offering special introductory one-way fares as low as $39 on each of the new routes.

Customers looking to take advantage of the deals on new routes may also be interested in Frontier's bundled choice, The WORKS, which contains the airline's most popular options for one low price.

The WORKS includes one carry-on bag, one checked bag, best available seat including Stretch and Exit Row options, full refund when canceled at least 24 hours prior to scheduled departure, no change fees and priority boarding.

Frontier Airlines president Barry Biffle released a statement about the addition of new routes:

"Travelers between big cities have enjoyed low fares while many markets have remained overpriced and underserved. Frontier's low fares in these new markets will benefit millions of new fliers who are forced to drive because they haven't found affordable air travel options - or they simply stay at home. We see hundreds of additional opportunities like these throughout the country, fueling our growth for years to come."

Here is the full list of new routes, via Marketwired:
