Flight Attendant will be notified via Frontier email that they have 30 days to provide documentation that they’ve started the passport renewal process.
- 150 days (5 months) prior to passport expiration: If Flight Attendant has not provided documentation that they’ve started the passport renewal process, they will be suspended from the schedule and may be subject to additional performance discipline. The Flight Attendant will be informed via Frontier email to reach out to their Base Leadership for details on the next steps.

Important Reminders:
If your passport currently has less than one (1) year of validity, begin planning now for your passport renewal. Follow the steps in FACT article - Passport - Renewal Procedures
If your passport is close to or less than six (6) months of validity, you must begin the renewal process immediately (if you haven’t done so already) to prevent possible corrective action.
