Frontier Airlines To Hawai‘i?

In an interview with Routes Online, Frontier Airlines CEO Barry Biffle mentioned in passing that Hawai‘i could be on the airline's route network (along with Europe and South America) when they begin receiving their order of 18 A321NXLRs beginning in 2026. The airline has been exploring the possibility of long-haul over-ocean flights for the XLRs, with 4,500+ nm range.

Frontier is in the process of converting its A320 and A321 fleets from the CEO (Current Engine Option) to the NEO (New Engine Option) versions. Their newest A321-271NX, N603FR "Fredrick the Bald Eagle" (msn 11032), has their new tag line, "America's Greenest Airline".
