Frontier Passengers Snap After Missing Flight—Houston Check-In Goes Wild, Police Move In

The Frontier passengers missed their flight by just moments, but their reaction at Houston’s check-in counter will be remembered for a full 15 minutes.

You can see video of Frontier Airlines check-in at Houston Intercontinental’s terminal A, with multiple police officers present. Two travelers are physically restrained after an argument at the counter on December 22.

Frontier has a hard cutoff closing check-in 60 minutes prior to departure. The passengers were late and weren’t going to take it and things end badly. The clip is being circulated on twitter with a claim about the airline having to “turn the plane around” but that’s clearly not what’s going on here.

I’ve written about passengers showing up late to Frontier Airlines check-in. It’s not the first time this year that has escalated to law enforcement.
