Every Seat Counts: How We Can Help Bring More Flights to Corpus Christi

Al Arreola Jr.

President & CEO

When Frontier Airlines’ first direct flight from Corpus Christi to Denver took off, I had the privilege of being on board. From takeoff to touchdown, the experience was more than just smooth; it was symbolic. Each new nonstop flight from Corpus Christi represents progress, opportunity, and a stronger connection between our community and the rest of the country.

A Journey that Showcases Possibility

Once we landed in Denver, we jumped right into everything the city had to offer, from the Great American Beer Festival, one of the nation’s premier events, to hiking the beautiful outdoor trails that Colorado is famous for. We also visited the History Colorado Center and explored the inspiring Make an Impact exhibit, which highlighted stories of innovation and leadership that left us both motivated and proud of what communities can achieve when they work together.

It was the kind of weekend that reminded me why convenient, direct air service matters. It is not just about ease of travel; it is about experiencing new things, building new relationships, and making connections that benefit both residents and businesses.

Connecting Corpus Christi to Opportunity

Every new route helps tell our story. Direct flights like this one make it easier for visitors, investors, and potential residents to discover what makes Corpus Christi special, and for our business leaders to reach new markets. They strengthen our reputation as a city that is growing, connected, and open for business.The amendment does not create a new tax. Instead, it allocates a portion of existing state revenue when certain financial conditions are met, ensuring a dedicated and predictable source of funding for Texas water projects.

Why Your Ticket Matters

When our community supports routes like this, airlines take notice. Each seat filled sends a message that Corpus Christi values connectivity and that we are ready for more. The more we use these flights, the more routes we can attract in the future.

Let’s Keep Climbing

Frontier’s direct flights to Denver are currently offered every Thursday and Sunday, making it easy to plan a long weekend getaway or a productive business trip. Whether you are traveling for business, adventure, or family, consider flying Frontier and showing your support. Every trip helps keep Corpus Christi’s growth on course.

We all need to do our part to spread the word and share the success of this flight so that we can continue attracting more destinations and airlines to our city.

Because every time we board a flight, we are not just going somewhere, we are helping our city go further.
