Frontier Airlines announced a new sweepstakes that aims to reward travelers paying off student loan debt with reward miles.

Amid the end of the moratorium on student loan payments in the United States, the low-cost carrier is launching a promotion to award 100 lucky winners with promotional miles equal to their current student loan balance, up to a maximum of 100,000 miles per winner.

The total sweepstakes payout for all winners will be capped at 10 million miles, with Promotional miles being non-qualifying toward Frontier Miles Elite Status. The sweepstakes is open through August 27.

Those still paying off their education loans must complete an entry form, including their loan balance amount to enter. A Frontier Miles account and membership number are required for entry, which is free to join. 

“We’re thrilled to spread a little joy among education borrowers and offer an opportunity to win free flights through this special mileage giveaway,” Frontier vice president Tyri Squyres said. “With flights available for as little as 10,000 miles, FRONTIER Miles are a great way to take advantage of Frontier’s expansive network and enjoy a getaway to explore someplace new or visit family and friends.”

Qualifying travelers may gain bonus entries into the contest by sharing the sweepstakes page on their social media accounts.

Earlier this month, Frontier released its second-quarter 2023 financial results, revealing its highest post-pandemic earnings before tax in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Pre-tax income reached $88 million, reflecting a margin of 9.1 percent.
