Meanwhile, Frontier Airlines this winter will resume nonstop flights to Miami from T.F. Green for the first time in more than a year, the airport announced Thursday.
The increased service on Frontier also will include nonstop flights to Fort Myers and Tampa. The Miami service will be five direct flights a week, starting Dec. 17.
