Southwest Adds New Routes To Fresh Florida and Montana Destinations

This morning, Southwest Airlines announced its upcoming new service for Florida’s Destin–Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) and Montana’s Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN), beginning May 2021.

“We’re adding another destination in the West, our first in Montana, and bringing additional access to the beaches of Northwest Florida, just as winter-weary families begin to dream of warm summer escapes in wide-open places,” said Andrew Watterson, Southwest Airlines’ Executive Vice President & Chief Commercial Officer. “Our arrival in these communities with daily service also ushers a new flexibility and everyday affordability for local travelers flying Southwest for fun, family, or work.”

New routes to Destin–Fort Walton Beach will introduce daily, nonstop service, flying out of Baltimore/Washington (BWI), once daily; Chicago (Midway), once daily; Dallas (Love Field), once daily; and Nashville, three times daily.

These will bring Southwest service to an eleventh airport in the Sunshine State and a third option for sun-seekers to access the Florida Panhandle. Service is scheduled to begin May 6, with added nonstop service to Chicago beginning June 6. The new year-round flights will bring additional connecting or same-plane service to over 50 cities, all told.
