Fare type notes
Some airlines include only a smaller underseat item with basic fares. Larger cabin bags can require a paid bundle, priority service, or eligible ticket.
How strict is Frontier Airlines?
Frontier Airlines publishes 45 x 35 x 20 cm for the personal item, and at the gate the sizer frame decides — not your tape measure. On low-cost fares, size checks are part of the business model, so a bag within 1 cm of any limit is a gamble. Hard shells can't squeeze and soft bags bulge once packed — leave yourself a margin.

context
Airline context
Frontier Airlines is a low-cost carrier based in United States. Like most low-cost carriers, the free allowance is usually just the underseat bag — the larger cabin bag is often a paid add-on, so match your bag to your exact fare before you get to the gate.
