F9 stands for Frontier Airlines, an airline code abbreviation.

Ultra-low-cost US airline based in Denver, known for low base fares, extra fees for bags and seats, and animals painted on the tails of its all-Airbus fleet.

Example: My F9 flight to Orlando was $49, but the carry-on cost more than the ticket.

Usage notes

ICAO code FFT; callsign "Frontier Flight." The current Frontier was founded in 1994, taking the name of an earlier Frontier Airlines that flew from 1950 to 1986. Each aircraft has a named animal mascot, such as Grizwald the bear. Like Spirit, it relies heavily on ancillary revenue from fees.
