Check-in and bag drop
Check in for Frontier on Level 2 (Departures) of the Central Terminal, where you will find counters, self-service kiosks and bag drop. As a rule of thumb, arrive about 2 hours before a domestic flight and 3 hours before an international one.
Gates and Concourse F
Frontier uses Concourse F in the Central Terminal. Not all of MIA's concourses are connected after security, so a transfer from one concourse to another can mean leaving the secure area and clearing security again. Allow extra time and follow the airport signage.
Arrivals and baggage claim
Frontier arrivals come into Concourse F. International arrivals clear passport control and customs (Federal Inspection) first, then collect bags at the baggage claim; domestic arrivals go straight to the carousels. Rideshare, taxis and the free MIA Mover to the rental car center and Metrorail are reached from the arrivals level.
Lounges
For lounges you can use near Concourse F, including pay-per-visit options, see our Miami airport lounges guide.
Flying Frontier from MIA: what to know
Frontier check-in and bag drop are at counters 223–236 in Concourse F of the Central Terminal. As an ultra-low-cost carrier, Frontier prices checked bags, carry-on bags and seat selection separately from the base fare, and these almost always cost less when you add them online in advance than when you pay at the airport. If you can travel with only the free personal item that fits under the seat in front of you, you will keep your trip through Concourse F cheap and fast.
Getting to and around the Central Terminal
Coming from the Miami Intermodal Center (rental cars and Metrorail), take the free MIA Mover to the terminal, then follow signs to the Central Terminal and Concourse F. For the full layout and how the concourses connect, see our Miami airport terminals guide and Miami Airport guide.
