Denver-based Frontier Airlines will compete on routes from Las Vegas to Reno-Tahoe International Airport next year and will launch service with promotional fares of $19 one way.

The airline, currently the fifth-busiest commercial air carrier at Harry Reid International Airport, will begin three-times-weekly flights beginning March 7. Las Vegas is Frontier’s third-busiest destination behind Denver and Orlando, Florida.

Frontier will use its 186-passenger, twin-engine Airbus A320 jets on the route.

The new flights are among 16 new routes announced nationwide on Tuesday, which also include three weekly nonstop flights between Reno and Denver.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
