SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – September 24, 2025 – Frontier Airlines (Nasdaq: ULCC) celebrated the grand opening of its new Project Management Office in Guaynabo today, marking the airline’s latest investment on the island and deepening of its partnership with Puerto Rico. The facility will house employees who provide project oversight for a variety of major company initiatives. Currently, eight employees work at the facility, with further growth expected.
Combined with Frontier’s operations and crew base at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan (SJU), in addition to operations at Rafael Hernández International Airport in Aguadilla (BQN) and Mercedita International Airport in Ponce (PSE), the airline and its business partners now employ more than 730 people in Puerto Rico resulting in an annual economic wage impact of more than $101 million.
“Puerto Rico plays a pivotal role in our operations, and we are pleased to further grow our presence on the island with the opening of our new Project Management Office,” said James Dempsey, president, Frontier Airlines. “We wish to extend our deep appreciation to the government and other partners in Puerto Rico for their continued support as we bring additional job opportunities and tourism to Puerto Rico.”
“The opening of this new Frontier Airlines office in Puerto Rico reaffirms the airline’s confidence in our talent and strengthens its long-term relationship with the island,” said Secretary of the Economic and Commercial Development Department, Mr. Sebastian Negron-Reichard. “Frontier is an invaluable partner for our market, where strong family and business ties to the United States drive a constant flow of local travelers and visitors. This investment brings quality jobs and deepens the connection between the brand and Puerto Rico as a strategic hub for aviation, tourism, and connectivity with our communities abroad. Our commitment is to continue creating the conditions for global companies like Frontier to find in Puerto Rico the ideal place to grow and expand their operations.”
To celebrate the Project Management Office grand opening, Frontier Airlines executives met with local employees and government officials at the facility today for a ribbon cutting and tour.
