Wichita Losing Frontier Airlines

Frontier Airlines Holdings Inc. said Friday it has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) _ Frontier Airlines has announced plans to halt its flights between Wichita and Denver.

The Wichita Eagle reports that Frontier's two daily flights from Wichita will end on Nov. 16.

Frontier spokeswoman Lindsey Carpenter says the flights have been performing below average. Carpenter says the airline will contact travelers who have booked flights after Nov. 15, and offer them a flight on another airline or a refund.

The move will leave United Airlines as the only airline flying from Wichita through Denver to western destinations. Allegiant operates flights from Wichita to Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Phoenix-Mesa.
