 Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025
 Filed February 18, 2026
 File No. 001-40304 Dear
Ms. Guobadia and Mr. Rodriguez: On behalf of our client, Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (the
“ Company ”), this letter is respectfully submitted in response to the letter dated March 17, 2026, from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “ Staff ”) of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, relating to the above-referenced Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed by the Company on February 18, 2026 (the “ Form 10-K ”). The Staff’s comments are set forth below in
bold, followed by the Company’s response to the comments. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this letter have the meanings given to them in the Form 10-K.
 Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025
 Financial Statements Note 1 — Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies Cash and Cash Equivalents, page 94

 1.
 We note your disclosure indicating that you consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities
of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash and cash equivalents, although also indicating that “items with maturities greater than three months” that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash (including money
market funds and time deposits) are also reported as cash and cash equivalents.

 April 8, 2026
 Page
 2

 As the definition of cash equivalents in FASB ASC 230-10-20 stipulates that “only
investments with original maturities of three months or less” qualify under the definition, i.e. short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present
insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates, unless you are able to show why this criteria would not apply to you (also considering the FASB deliberations regarding the limit as documented in their basis for
conclusions), it appears that the instruments having original maturities greater than ninety days should be reclassified. Please
provide us with details of the amounts that you have reported as of the end of the two last fiscal years as cash and cash equivalents that did not have maturities of three months or less when acquired.
 The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that management has reviewed the amounts
reported as cash and cash equivalents as of the end of the last two fiscal years. The Company confirms that, as of the end of the last two fiscal years, it has not held or reported any amounts as cash and cash equivalents that had maturities of
greater than three months when acquired. The disclosure that “any items with maturities greater than three months
that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash are considered cash and cash equivalents” is a legacy disclosure that was included in the Company’s December 31, 2025 Form 10-K in error. Beginning with the Company’s next
periodic filing, the Company will revise its disclosure in the notes to the financial statements to reflect this update.
 For illustrative purposes, below are proposed revisions to the existing related Form 10-K disclosure as an example of future
disclosure on this topic. Bold strikethrough text indicates proposed deletions. Note 1 – Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies Cash and Cash Equivalents, page 94 of the Form 10-K
 The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash
and cash equivalents. Additionally, any items with maturities greater than three months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash are considered cash and cash equivalents. Investments included in this category primarily
consist of money market funds and time deposits. Note 8 - Operating Leases
 Aircraft Rent Expense and Maintenance Obligations, page 108

 2.
 We note that you report aircraft lease extensions in each period which impact your accruals for the
right-of-use asset and corresponding liability, although which also yield reductions to aircraft rent due to changes in estimates for lease termination costs. Your accounting policy disclosure explains that some leases with initial terms greater
than 12 months include rental escalation clauses, renewal options, termination options and/or other items that cause variability and are factored into the determination of lease payments when appropriate, although does not indicate how these
assessments are based on or utilize the criteria of exercise being reasonably certain to occur.

 April 8, 2026
 Page
 3

 Please expand your accounting policy disclosure on page 95 and the critical accounting
policy disclosure on page 79 to describe the factors that you consider in determining whether exercise of lease extension options are reasonably certain upon entering into a lease, based on the guidance in FASB ASC 842-10-30-2 and 842-10-55-26, and
to explain how the prospects of exercise are reassessed in subsequent periods based on the guidance in FASB ASC 842-10-35-1 and 842-10-55-28 and 29.
 Please include details sufficient to understand the alternatives to exercise that are under consideration, and the nature of the changes in
circumstances that appear to arise only upon exercise and which do not result in any changes to your assessment of exercise as being not reasonably certain in the intervening periods prior to exercise. Please describe any correlation between your
decisions to extend aircraft leases and any changes in your plans to acquire aircraft as represented by the tabulation on page 77.
 Also tell us how many aircraft were covered by your lease extensions each period, the number of years covered by the extensions exercised,
and whether the leases for the aircraft covered by those extensions had been subject to any prior extensions and if so, also describe to us the typical terms for the initial lease periods, terms for any extensions, and indicate whether there are
typically multiple extensions available. The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises
the Staff that, as discussed in more detail below, during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not exercise any aircraft lease extension options. References in the Form 10-K indicating that “the Company
extended the term for certain aircraft operating leases” (or similar) refer to contractual amendments separately negotiated and agreed to with each lessor, not the exercise of an extension option in the original lease. As a result, the
accounting for the lease extensions as disclosed in the Company’s filings coincided with the date the applicable contractual lease extension amendment was executed between the Company and the applicable lessor.
 In future filings, the Company will expand its disclosure to clarify that such extensions were the result of separate
amendments as well as enhance its accounting policy disclosure to describe the factors that the Company considers in determining whether exercise of lease extension options are reasonably certain upon entering into a lease, based on the guidance in
FASB ASC 842-10-30-2 and FASB ASC 842-10-55-26, and to explain how the prospects of exercise are reassessed in subsequent periods based on the guidance in FASB ASC 842-10-35-1, FASB ASC 842-10-55-28 and FASB ASC 842-10-55-29.

 For illustrative purposes, below are proposed revisions to the existing
related Form 10-K disclosure as an example of future disclosure on this topic. Bold strikethrough text indicates proposed deletions and bold underlined text indicates proposed additions.
 Note 8 – Operating Leases
 Aircraft Rent Expense and Maintenance Obligations, page 108
 “During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company extended the term for amended
certain aircraft operating leases that were slated to expire between 2026 and 2027 in order to extend the term of the lease, and recorded a benefit of $27 million to aircraft rent in the Company’s consolidated
statements of operations related to previously accrued lease return costs. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company extended the term for amended certain aircraft operating leases that
were slated to expire between 2025 and 2027 in order to extend the term of the lease, and recorded a benefit of $14 million to aircraft rent in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations related to
previously accrued lease return costs. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company extended the term for amended certain aircraft operating leases that were slated to expire between 2023 and
2024 in order to extend the term of the lease, and recorded a benefit of $53 million to aircraft rent in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations related to previously accrued lease return costs. These
costs were variable in nature and associated with the anticipated utilization and condition of the airframes and engines at the original return date. Given the extension of the terms of these aircraft operating leases,
such variable return costs are no longer probable of occurring.” Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies
 Leases, page 95
 “The Company leases property and equipment under operating leases. For leases with initial terms greater than 12 months, the
related operating lease right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability are recorded at the present value of lease payments over the term on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Some leases include rental escalation
clauses, renewal options, termination options and/or other items that cause variability that are factored into the determination of lease payments when appropriate. The Company includes renewal option periods in the lease term used to
measure lease liabilities and the corresponding right of use assets when such renewal options are reasonably certain of exercise which is evaluated at commencement and over the life of the lease and includes an assessment of contract, asset, market
and Company-specific factors. Specifically, in determining whether exercise of lease renewal options are reasonably certain, and in conjunction with assessing the overall desirability of renewal option terms, the Company considers factors such as
(i) the Company’s long-term fleet plan and current aircraft commitments; (ii) the presence of any significant termination penalties which may economically compel the Company to extend the lease; (iii) the presence of

 April 8, 2026
 Page 5

 any below market rates in leases that contain renewal options; (iv) the significance of leasehold improvements; and (v) the timing of major maintenance events related to the
airframe and engines, which are both considered part of the aircraft lease. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts, except for certain flight training equipment, for which consideration is allocated
between lease and non-lease components.” Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 Leased Aircraft Return Costs, page 79
 “In 2025 and 2024, we extended the term for amended certain aircraft operating leases
that were slated to expire between 2026 and 2027, and between 2025 and 2027, respectively , in order to extend the term of the lease . For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a benefit of $27
million and $14 million, respectively, to aircraft rent in our consolidated statement of operations related to previously accrued lease return costs . Such accrued lease return costs were variable in nature and associated
with the anticipated utilization and condition of the airframes at the original return date. Given the extension of these aircraft operating leases, such variable return costs are no longer probable of occurring.”
 The Company is also providing the Staff with additional detail in response to the Staff’s other questions, although this
additional detail may no longer be necessary given that the Company did not exercise any aircraft lease extension options during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
 During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company extended a total of 44 aircraft leases. None of these
44 leases had been previously extended in any manner, including pursuant to the exercise of an extension option in the original lease or a separately negotiated amendment, and each lease was extended for the first time pursuant to a separately
negotiated amendment to the original lease agreement. The Company has no history of exercising renewal options in its aircraft lease agreements.
 The Company’s aircraft leases typically have a fixed term of between 8 and 12 years, and of the 44 aircraft operating
leases for which the Company entered into contractual amendments to extend the term of the lease during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, only six leases included an extension option in the original lease agreement. The
majority of these six extension options provided for two 2-year extensions on the same terms as the original lease agreement, including at the same fixed rent. Even in the cases where an aircraft lease includes an extension option, the Company has
not historically exercised such options because, for business reasons, the Company typically seeks longer extension periods than the lease extension option would provide, with such extensions averaging 5.5 years across the 44 aircraft leases
extended by contractual amendment. In addition, in recent years, the Company has been able to utilize amendments to obtain more favorable rates due to changes in market conditions as compared to the fixed rent terms in the lease extension options.

 April 8, 2026
 Page 6

 The Company evaluates any aircraft lease extension options both upon
commencement of the lease and on an ongoing basis and includes extension options in the lease term used to measure lease liabilities and the corresponding right of use assets when it is reasonably certain that such extension option will be
exercised. At commencement of an aircraft lease, and in accordance with FASB ASC 842-10-55-26, the Company evaluates whether it is reasonably certain to exercise or not to exercise an aircraft lease extension option “by considering all
economic factors relevant to that assessment—contract-based, asset-based, market-based, and entity-based factors.”
 During the life of the lease, the Company evaluates whether any extension options have become reasonably certain of exercise in
accordance with FASB ASC 842-10-35-1, FASB ASC 842-10-55-28 and FASB ASC-842-10-55-29. The future aircraft
commitments outlined in the table on page 77 of the Form 10-K relate to the Company’s purchase commitment agreements with the aircraft manufacturer and the Company’s decision to extend certain of
its existing lease agreements via separate contractual amendments was made to further support the Company’s future operating needs.
 * * * * * We believe that the
foregoing has been responsive to the Staff’s comments and look forward to resolving any outstanding issues as quickly as possible. If you have any questions or comments or require fu

 File No. 001-40304
Dear James G. Dempsey:

 We have limited our review of your filing to the financial statements
and related
disclosures and have the following comments.

 Please respond to this letter within ten business days by providing the
requested
information or advise us as soon as possible when you will respond. If you do
not believe a
comment applies to your facts and circumstances, please tell us why in your
response.

 After reviewing your response to this letter, we may have additional
comments.

Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2025
Financial Statements
Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Cash and Cash Equivalents, page 94

1. We note your disclosure indicating that you consider all highly liquid
investments with
 original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition
to be cash and cash
 equivalents, although also indicating that items with maturities
greater than three
 months that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash
(including money market
 funds and time deposits) are also reported as cash and cash equivalents.

 As the definition of cash equivalents in FASB ASC 230-10-20 stipulates
that only
 investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify
under the definition,
 i.e. short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible
to known amounts
 of cash, and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk
of changes in value
 because of changes in interest rates, unless you are able to show why
this criteria would
 not apply to you (also considering the FASB deliberations regarding the
limit as
 March 17, 2026
Page 2

 documented in their basis for conclusions), it appears that the
instruments having original
 maturities greater than ninety days should be reclassified.

 Please provide us with details of the amounts that you have reported as
of the end of the
 two last fiscal years as cash and cash equivalents that did not have
maturities of three
 months or less when acquired.

Note 8 - Operating Leases
Aircraft Rent Expense and Maintenance Obligations, page 108

2. We note that you report aircraft lease extensions in each period which
impact your
 accruals for the right-of-use asset and corresponding liability,
although which also yield
 reductions to aircraft rent due to changes in estimates for lease
termination costs. Your
 accounting policy disclosure explains that some leases with initial
terms greater than
 12 months include rental escalation clauses, renewal options,
termination options and/or
 other items that cause variability and are factored into the
determination of lease
 payments when appropriate, although does not indicate how these
assessments are based
 on or utilize the criteria of exercise being reasonably certain to
occur.

 Please expand your accounting policy disclosure on page 95 and the
critical accounting
 policy disclosure on page 79 to describe the factors that you consider
in determining
 whether exercise of lease extension options are reasonably certain upon
entering into a
 lease, based on the guidance in FASB ASC 842-10-30-2 and 842-10-55-26,
and to
 explain how the prospects of exercise are reassessed in subsequent
periods based on the
 guidance in FASB ASC 842-10-35-1 and 842-10-55-28 and 29.

 Please include details sufficient to understand the alternatives to
exercise that are under
 consideration, and the nature of the changes in circumstances that
appear to arise only
 upon exercise and which do not result in any changes to your assessment
of exercise as
 being not reasonably certain in the intervening periods prior to
exercise. Please describe
 any correlation between your decisions to extend aircraft leases and any
changes in
 your plans to acquire aircraft as represented by the tabulation on page
77.

 Also tell us how many aircraft were covered by your lease extensions
each period, the
 number of years covered by the extensions exercised, and whether the
leases for the
 aircraft covered by those extensions had been subject to any prior
extensions and if so,
 also describe to us the typical terms for the initial lease periods,
terms for any extensions,
 and indicate whether there are typically multiple extensions available.

 In closing, we remind you that the company and its management are
responsible for the
accuracy and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review,
comments, action or
absence of action by the staff.

 Please contact Yolanda Guobadia at 202-551-3562 or Gus Rodriguez at
202-551-3752
with any questions.

UPDATED DISCLOSURE

 The first paragraph
under the heading “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger to U.S. Holders of Spirit Common Stock” on page 162 of Amendment No. 1 shall be amended as follows:

Provided that the Control Requirement (as defined below) is satisfied as of the closing date of the merger, Spirit
and Frontier intend Debevoise, tax counsel to Spirit, is of the opinion, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that the merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (which we
refer to as the “Intended Tax Treatment”). However, the completion of the merger is not conditioned on the merger qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment or upon the receipt of an opinion of counsel to that effect.

FORM OF DEBEVOISE & PLIMPTON EX. 8.1 TAX OPINION

May [•], 2022

 Spirit Airlines, Inc.

2800 Executive Way

 Miramar, Florida 33025

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 We have acted as tax
counsel to Spirit Airlines, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 5, 2022 (together with all exhibits, schedules and ancillary agreements
thereto, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Frontier Group Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Top Gun Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent
(“Merger Sub”), and the Company, whereby Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent. This opinion is being delivered in connection with Parent’s
registration statement on Form S-4 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2022 (Registration No. 333-263467) (including the proxy
statement/prospectus contained therein and the annexes and exhibits thereto, as amended, the “Registration Statement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Merger Agreement.

 In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of the facts, information,
representations, warranties and covenants contained in originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Merger Agreement, (ii) the Registration Statement and (iii) the representation letters of
Parent and the Company delivered to us for purposes of this opinion dated as of the date hereof (the “Representation Letters”). In addition, we have examined, and relied as to matters of fact upon, originals or copies, certified or
otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments and made such other inquiries as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion set forth below. In such
examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as
duplicates or certified or conformed copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. We have not, however, undertaken any independent investigation of any factual matter set forth in any of the foregoing.

In rendering such opinion, we have assumed, with your permission, that:

(i) the Merger and all related transactions will be effected in accordance with the Merger Agreement (including the ancillary agreements
thereto), and that none of the terms and conditions contained therein will have been waived or modified in any material respect,

 (ii) the statements concerning the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement and the
Registration Statement were true, complete and correct when made and will remain true, complete and correct in all material respects at all times up to and including the Effective Time,

(iii) the representations made by Parent and the Company in their respective Representation Letters were true, complete and correct when made
and will remain true, complete and correct in all material respects at all times up to and including the Effective Time,

 (iv) any
representations made in the Merger Agreement or the Representation Letters “to the knowledge of,” or based on the belief of Parent or the Company, or similarly qualified, were true, complete and correct when made and will remain true,
complete and correct in all material respects at all times up to and including the Effective Time, in each case without such qualification, and

(v) the parties have complied with and, if applicable, will continue to comply with, the covenants contained in the Merger Agreement (except
to the extent such covenants have been waived in writing prior to the date hereof) and the Representation Letters.

 Our opinion assumes
and is expressly conditioned upon the initial and continuing accuracy and completeness in all material respects of the items, and the facts, information, representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the documents, listed above.

Our opinion is based upon the Code, applicable Treasury Regulations, and administrative and judicial authorities thereunder all as in effect
as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. A change in the authorities or the facts, assumptions and other information upon which our opinion is based could affect our conclusions. In addition, there
can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not take a position contrary to that which is stated in this opinion. We express our opinion herein only as to those matters specifically set forth below and no opinion should be inferred as
to the tax consequences of the Merger under any state, local or foreign law, or with respect to other areas of United States federal taxation.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein and in the Registration Statement, we
are of the opinion that the statements in the Registration Statement under the heading “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger”, insofar as such statements purport to summarize U.S. federal income tax law or to state
legal conclusions with respect thereto, are accurate in all material respects.

 Our opinion is expressed as of the date hereof, and we are
under no obligation to supplement or revise our opinion to reflect any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to such time or the effect of any information, document, certificate, record, statement, representation, covenant, or
assumption relied upon herein that becomes incorrect or untrue. We assume no responsibility to inform you or any other person of any such change or inaccuracy that may occur or come to our attention.

 We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement
and to the reference to our firm under the caption “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger” in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not admit that we are within the category of persons whose
consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules or regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.

Response to Letter dated April 7, 2022

Registration Statement on Form S-4

Filed March 11, 2022

 File No. 333-263467

 Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of our client, Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (“Frontier” or the “Registrant”) we set
forth below the Registrant’s response to the letter, dated April 7, 2022, containing the comments of the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission with
respect to the above referenced Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by the Registrant on March 11, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”).

To facilitate your review, we have restated the Staff’s comments in this letter, and we have set forth the Registrant’s responses
immediately below the Staff’s comments. In addition, the Registrant has revised the Registration Statement in response to the Staff’s comments and are submitting an amendment to the Registration Statement (the
“Amendment”) concurrently with this letter, which reflects the revisions and clarifies certain other information. The page numbers in the text of the Registrant’s responses correspond to the page numbers in the
Amendment. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Amendment.

1.
 Revise your financial forecast disclosures for Frontier and Spirit to discuss the variables, estimates and
assumptions management believes are most significant.

 Response:     The Registrant
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that it has revised the Registrant’s financial forecast disclosures on page 72 and Sprit’s financial forecast disclosures on page 73, accordingly.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Merger, page 161

2.
 We note your disclosure that provided that the Control Requirement is satisfied as of the closing date of
the merger, Spirit and Frontier intend, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, that the merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Please file a tax opinion as an exhibit to your
registration statement, or provide us with your analysis as to why the tax consequences are not material to an investor and therefore no tax opinion is required to be filed. Refer to Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation
S-K. For guidance, please refer to Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19.

Response:     The Registrant acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises as follows:

Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, requires a tax opinion
to be filed as an exhibit where the “tax consequences are material to an investor and a representation as to tax consequences is set forth in the filing.” In discussing the tax opinion requirement, Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 provides
that “information is ‘material’ if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider the information to be important in deciding how to vote or make an investment decision or, put another way, to have
significantly altered the total mix of available information.”

 As disclosed in the Registration Statement, provided that the
“Control Requirement” is satisfied as of the closing of the merger, which will depend on facts and circumstances that will not be known until the closing of the merger, Spirit and Frontier intend for the merger to qualify as a
reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). However, the merger is not conditioned on achieving the Intended Tax Treatment or on
the receipt of an opinion of counsel regarding the qualification of the merger for the Intended Tax Treatment, and the merger may not so qualify. The Registration Statement does not represent that the merger is
tax-free, which is one example provided in Staff Legal Bulletin No. 19 Section III.A.2. for when the tax consequences may be material. Rather, the disclosure in the Registration Statement addresses both
the tax consequences to holders if the merger does qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment and the tax consequences if the merger does not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. In addition, the disclosure provides that Spirit will not resolicit
votes if the merger does not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. Since it will not be

 April 15, 2022

 Page

known until closing whether the merger would qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment and since the merger would be consummated regardless of whether the merger qualifies for the Intended Tax
Treatment, investors should not consider the Intended Tax Treatment to be important in deciding how to vote on the merger. As a result, the tax consequences of the merger are not material to an investor and a tax opinion is therefore not required to
be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

 Legal Opinion, Exhibit 5.1

3.
 We note that the legal opinion currently opines on up to 215,000,000 shares of common stock. However, we
also note that the filing fee table in Exhibit 107 reflects 215,492,296 shares of common stock as the estimated maximum number of shares of Frontier common stock to be issued in connection with the merger. Please have legal counsel revise the legal
opinion to include the legality of all securities being registered.

 Response:    The
Registrant acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the legal opinion of counsel to the Registrant has been revised accordingly.

General

4.
 We note that Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. incorporates by reference its annual report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. However, the Form 10-K for Frontier incorporates information from its proxy statement which has not yet been filed.
Prior to requesting acceleration of the effectiveness of this registration statement, please either amend the Form 10-K to include information required by Part III of Form
10-K or file the definitive proxy statement. Please refer to Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Securities Act Forms Question 123.01 for guidance.

Response:     The Registrant acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the Registrant’s
proxy statement was filed on April 13, 2022 (File No. 001-40304).

Form 10-K for Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021

Filed February 23, 2022

Form 8-K Filed February 7, 2022

File No. 1-40304

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 This letter is in
response to the comment letter received on March 17, 2022 from the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) regarding the above-referenced filings for Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (the
“Company”).

 For ease of review, we have set forth below each of the numbered comments of the Staff’s letter
dated March 17, 2022 in bold type followed by the Company’s responses thereto.

 Form 10-K for
Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021

 Item 1. Business, page 3

1.
 You disclose that in order to enhance your brand and drive revenue growth, you intend to continue to deliver
a higher-quality flight experience than historically offered by ultra low-cost carriers globally and generate customer loyalty by providing customers a dependable, reliable,
on-time and friendly travel experience. Please expand the disclosure, here or elsewhere in your filing, to describe and quantify for the periods presented the metrics you use to evaluate whether you are
delivering a “higher-quality flight experience”

 April 1, 2022

 Page
 2

and generating “customer loyalty”. See SEC Release 34-88094 Commission Guidance on Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.

 Response:        The Company
respectfully submits that the statements identified by the Staff are not included as an element of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations because they represent general statements as to the
Company’s business model and strategy. The principal manner in which the Company measures success of this model is continued growth and increasing revenues as expressed in the lead-in to a strategy
discussion contained on page 5 of the Form 10-K:

 A Superior Low-Fare Brand. In order to enhance our brand and drive revenue growth (emphasis added), we intend to continue to deliver a higher-quality flight experience
than historically offered by ULCCs globally and generate customer loyalty by:

•

 continuing to offer attractive low fares;

•

 expanding our marketing efforts, including through the addition of new animals for each of our new aircraft,
particularly highlighting endangered species on our signature animal tails, to continue to position our brand as a family- and environmentally-friendly ULCC;

•

 continuing to improve penetration of our bundle options, including The Works and The
Perks;

•

 further enhancing our Frontier Miles offering to improve reward opportunities for our
branded credit card customers; and

•

 providing our customers a dependable, reliable, on-time and friendly
travel experience.

 Similarly, the other substantive comments of the Company contained in the Form 10-K regarding loyalty are keyed off of the Company’s brand image (see for example the bullet labeled “Our Brand” on page 4 of the Form 10-K in addition to the
text included above).

 As disclosed in extensive detail in the Form 10-K, the
airline industry in general, and the Company in particular, have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant volatility that it has imposed on the airline industry. The Company
respectfully submits that under current market conditions, it does not, as a general matter, evaluate its brand image or customer loyalty through other discrete, individually significant statistics and it believes its disclosure regarding its
business model is an accurate characterization of management’s views. The Company does, however, acknowledge that some industry investors and observers monitor the publicly available operating statistics that all significant airlines, including
Frontier, provide to the Department of Transportation (“DOT”). In connection with the next pre-effective amendment of the Company’s pending registration statement on Form S-4, the Company will, as an element of its risk factor disclosure, provide its so-called “on-time” (i.e., “A14”)
and “completion factor” statistics as reported to DOT for 2021, 2020 and 2019.

 Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

 Year Ended December 31, 2021 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2020

Reconciliation of CASM to Adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) and Adjusted CASM including net interest, page 75

2.
 We note your presentation of adjusted CASM (excluding fuel) and adjusted CASM including net interest. Please
disclose the reasons why management believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors. Additionally, to the extent material, disclose the additional
purposes, if any, for which management uses the non-GAAP financial measures. Refer to Item 10(e)(1)(i)(C)) and (D) of Regulation S-K.

Response:        The Company refers the Staff to disclosure regarding the foregoing matter that
the Company has made in multiple previous filings, including the Form S-1 related to its initial public offering (please see page 89 of the definitive prospectus filed under Rule 424 on April 2, 2021) and
all previous quarterly reports on Form 10-Q (please see page 35 of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, page 33 of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and page 33 of the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021). Conforming disclosure was unintentionally omitted from
the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company will include appropriate disclosure which addresses its adjusted CASM metrics in future periodic reports that provide such data.

Form 8-K Filed February 7, 2022

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Information, page 2

3.
 You present diluted earnings (loss) per share in Adjusted Non-GAAP
columns on page 2. Please provide a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure disclosed with the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with
GAAP. Refer to Item 10(e)(1)(i) of Reg. S-K and Regulation G.

Response:        The Company refers the Staff to the reconciliation included on page 8 of the
Form 8-K which provides a detailed tabular reconciliation from net income to adjusted (non-GAAP) net income. The Company respectfully believes that this presentation,
combined with the disclosure of diluted shares outstanding (please see page 6 of the Form 8-K), provides the reader with this data but for the mathematical step of dividing each entry in the table by the
diluted shares outstanding. The Company further notes that, as specified on page 6 of the Form 8-K, for all periods presented the basic and diluted shares outstanding were the same (due to losses being
recorded in the 2021 and 2020 periods) or within less than one percent of each other (2019). However, should the Company elect to include non-GAAP earnings per share in its press release containing financial
results or periodic report for a future period, the Company undertakes to provide a separate reconciliation table expressed on a per share basis.

 On behalf of Frontier

amended, the “Registration Statement”), which was initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 8, 2021 and amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement filed on
March 18, 2021 (“Amendment No. 1”) and by Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement filed on March 19, 2021.

and the Company’s response thereto. For your convenience, we have enclosed a courtesy package for the members of the Staff identified above which includes a copy of Amendment No. 3 marked to show changes from Amendment No. 1, as well

 On behalf of Frontier

 We note that your total available liquidity of $963 million includes $161 million of income tax
receivable you expect to collect in 2021. Tell us why you believe it is appropriate to include an amount you have not collected or have access to in a liquidity measure as of December 31, 2020.

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has modified the disclosure on pages 10, 40, 76, 99 and 119 of Amendment
No. 1 to exclude $161 million of income tax receivable from the calculation of available liquidity as of December 31, 2020. Disclosure relating to the income tax receivable is now provided separately.

 We reviewed your response to comment 7. Discuss and analyze your financial position and the changes in your
financial condition as required by Item 303(a) and (b) of Regulation S-K. Specifically, discuss and analyze material changes to your balance sheet and discuss material events and uncertainties that may
impact your future financial condition. Also discuss and analyze statistical data that you believe will enhance understanding of your financial condition.

Response: Consistent with the telephone conversation between the Staff and the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer on March 16,
2021, the Company has added a tabular presentation and related analysis of key balance sheet items and related statistical data on page 101 of Amendment No. 1.

describing the utility of this measure.

 We reviewed your response to comment 12. You state that the individual measures may not be comparable across
all carriers; however, you believe the measures taken together provide investors with a better picture of the economic advantage provided by the Company’s low costs. Tell us how you considered presenting CASM within your table alongside your
current measures since that is a measure that is generally comparable across all carriers.

 Response: In
response to the Staff’s comment, the Company has added disclosure on page 124 of Amendment No. 1 to present CASM in the table in addition to the information previously provided.

percentages as proscribed within ASC 740-10-50-12. The effective income tax rate of 39.5% was applied to the loss before income
taxes to arrive at the income tax benefit of $147 million in 2020.

Re:            Frontier Group Holdings, Inc.

Registration Statement on Form S-1

File No. 333-254004

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 This letter relates to
the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) of Frontier Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”).

To assist the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission in its review, the Company hereby provides
the following preliminary proposed price range, which will be the basis for the information expected to be included in the Company’s preliminary prospectus, presently anticipated to be filed on or about [***], 2021 (the “Preliminary
Prospectus”) forming part of the Registration Statement which relates to the Company’s proposed initial public offering (the “Offering”). The Company respectfully advises the Staff that, while not reflected
in the Registration Statement, based on discussions with the Company and reflecting the input from the lead underwriters for the Offering, the Company currently anticipates an approximate price range of $[***] to $[***] per share for the
Company’s common stock (the “Preliminary IPO Price Range”), with a midpoint of that range of approximately $[***] per share (the “Preliminary

 [***] Certain information
in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and

 Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to portions of this letter.

 Assumed IPO Price”). The
Company’s final Preliminary IPO Price Range remains under discussion between the Company and the lead underwriters, and a bona fide price range that comports with Item 501(b)(3) of Regulation S-K and the
related Staff interpretations will be included in an amendment to the Registration Statement prior to any distribution of the preliminary prospectus in connection with the Company’s road show. An amendment to the Registration Statement will
also give effect to a forward stock split.

 The Preliminary IPO Price Range remains subject to change due to the high level of volatility
that is present in the public equity markets, particularly for airline equities. As a point of reference, as of the time this letter was prepared, the Dow Jones US Airlines Index is up approximately 4.4% for the past five days, 33.0% year to date
and 62.0% over the past twelve months, while being down approximately 7.7% compared to year-end 2019. This volatility reflects, among other things, rapidly changing investor reactions to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy generally and the travel industry in particular.

Throughout this period, the Company has continued to use its historical valuation methodologies for preparing it financial statements,
including receiving advice from the same third party financial advisor it has used to provide assistance since 2014. These analyses have relied heavily on the public trading prices of airlines that are similar to the Company, as well as income and
asset-based analyses. Share valuations used to value management equity compensation have varied between December 2019 through February 2021 between a low of $[***] per share to a high of $[***] per share.

[***]

 While the valuation of
airline equities during the pendency of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in more variation than historically, the Company believes that its determinations, based on consistent methodology, are reasonable and
also are appropriately reflective of the volatility that has existed, and remains, in the public markets.

 As is typical in initial public
offerings, the Preliminary IPO Price Range was not derived using a formal determination of fair value, and was determined based in large part on discussions among the Company and the lead underwriters for the Offering. Among the factors that were
considered in setting the Preliminary IPO Price Range were the following:

•

 the general conditions of the securities market and the recent market prices of, and the demand for,
publicly-traded common stock of airlines;

•

 the Company’s profitability, financial condition and prospects;

•

 business developments impacting the Company and the Company’s recent operational performance;

 [***] Certain information
in this document has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and

 Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to portions of this letter.

•

 estimates of business potential and long-term earnings prospects for the Company and the airline industry;

•

 recent performance of initial public offerings; and

•

 inputs received from the lead underwriters.

The Preliminary IPO Price Range does not take into account the current lack of liquidity for the Company’s common stock and assumes a
successful initial public offering with no weighting attributed to any other outcome for the Company’s business, such as remaining a privately-held company or being sold in an acquisition transaction.

The Company is supplementally providing the information in this letter to the Staff in order to assist the Staff in its review of the
Company’s Registration Statement. We confirm on behalf of the Company that, prior to circulating copies of the Preliminary Prospectus in connection with the Offering, the Company will file a pre-effective
amendment to the Registration Statement that will include all required information, other than information that may be excluded in reliance upon Rule 430A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such
pre-effective amendment to the Registration Statement will include a bona fide estimated public offering price range. However, the parameters of the bona fide price range will be subject to then-current market
conditions, continuing discussions with lead underwriters and material business developments impacting the Company, and there is a possibility that the bona fide price range for the Offering may fall outside of the Preliminary IPO Price Range. As
noted above, the price range to be included in the Preliminary Prospectus will in any event comply with Item 501(b)(3) of Regulation S-K and CD&I 134.04 and will not have a difference of more than 20% of
the high end of the range.

 The Company further advises the Staff that, given the volatility in the public trading markets and uncertainty
of the timing of the Offering, the information in this letter that the Company is supplementally providing to the Staff is for illustrative purposes only and may differ in the actual Preliminary Prospectus for the Offering.

The Company respectfully requests confidential treatment for this letter pursuant to Rule 83 promulgated by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, 17 C.F.R. §200.83.

nothing in your current certificate of incorporation or bylaws or your restated certificate of
incorporation or amended and restated bylaws precludes stockholders that assert claims
under the Exchange Act from bringing such claims in federal court to the extent that the

Securities Act, whether or not you retained, or intend to retain, copies of those
