Rove has officially added Frontier Miles as a new transfer partner, allowing members to move Rove Miles to Frontier at a 1:1 ratio. To celebrate the launch, Rove offered a 25% transfer bonus to Frontier Miles, but that promotion ended on July 31, 2026.
Our Take
Mixed. While the addition of Frontier Miles as a transfer partner is a solid win for those who fly Frontier, the limited-time 25% transfer bonus has already expired. For most, the new 1:1 transfer option adds flexibility, but the best value was for those who acted before the July 31 deadline.
What Changed
- Rove Miles can now be transferred to Frontier Miles at a 1:1 ratio (permanent addition)
- Launch promo: 25% transfer bonus to Frontier Miles (expired July 31, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. EST)
Who Benefits Most
- Frequent Frontier flyers: Those who regularly redeem for low-cost Frontier award flights can now top up accounts with flexible Rove Miles.
- Rove points hoarders: If you had a large Rove balance and transferred during the bonus window, you received 1.25 Frontier Miles per Rove Mile, boosting redemption value (e.g., 20,000 Rove Miles → 25,000 Frontier Miles, worth ~$325 at our 1.3¢/mile valuation).
- Deal chasers: Those who monitor transfer bonuses and acted before July 31 maximized their points' value.
- Frontier elite status seekers: If you were close to a status threshold, the bonus made it easier to reach with fewer Rove Miles.
Who Should Be Cautious
- Anyone transferring after July 31, 2026: The 25% bonus is gone; transfers are now 1:1 with no extra value.
- Travelers who prefer legacy airlines: Frontier's network is limited compared to major carriers, and Frontier Miles have fewer premium redemption options.
- Rove users with no interest in Frontier: This new partner doesn't add value unless you fly Frontier.
What To Do Right Now
- If you transferred Rove Miles to Frontier during the promo, check your Frontier account for the correct bonus amount.
- Going forward, only transfer Rove Miles to Frontier if you have a specific redemption in mind—Frontier Miles are best used for low-cost domestic flights.
- Monitor Rove and Frontier for future transfer bonuses; these promos often return seasonally.
- Compare the value of transferring to other Rove partners before moving points to Frontier.
