Did anyone go on frontier airlines before?
How was your experience?
Is it worth saving 40 dollars

It depends what you're comparing it to and how long the flight is.
I've gone on Frontier- NYC - MIA.
Not a terrible seat pitch. (front to back)
Only the bathroom is free -even chips and water cost.

I'm landing in LHR, early in the morn. and need to connect to NCL. The early connecting flight that I need isn't available, only the later one.
If I book the later flight, is it possible to get an agent in LHR, to put me on the earlier flight, as long as there are seats available ?

No experience with that particular route/airline, but IME, they will put you on if there are seats. Luggage transferring may be an issue.

Try getting a discounted gift card for another airline to close the gap, and don't ever look back.   Frontier and Spirit are horrible.

They might look intimidating, but they're little wimps whose bark is bigger than they're bite. ;)
Pure British low-life scum. Enjoy!

My father has a ticket issued by Brussels with the return operated by United and Lufthansa .
On United.com it says that a second bag will cost $650.
Is that for real? Is that how much they will charge?

IME it depends on the reason for the delay.
Weather related they won't give anything. I can't remember if they also call technical problems as 'out of their control'.
I don't sin, I give myself opportunities to repent.
