United Announces Expanded Service to Miami, Orlando

United Airlines announced Monday it was launching new daily service between Washington Dulles International Airport and Miami International Airport.

The airline also announced it was expanding service from Washington to Orlando and Tampa, with five daily flights to Orlando starting November 28 through January 6, 2019, and four daily flights to Tampa beginning December 26 through January 26, 2019.

United also announced plans to begin daily service between Washington and Miami from December 19 through March 30, 2019, as well as twice-daily service during peak holiday travel, December 24 through January 6, 2019.

With the addition of new service between Washington and Miami, the carrier now offers up to 16 daily flights to Miami from its hubs in Chicago, Denver, Houston, New York/Newark and San Francisco.

“We want to make United the first choice for customers when planning travel,” United vice president Ankit Gupta said in a statement. “To do this we are focusing on the strengths of our hub cities, which are the largest centers for business and tourism travel in the country and key gateways for customers to easily and conveniently connect to thousands of cities throughout the United States and beyond. The new destinations and the service expansions that we’re launching this year provide customers with more choice and more opportunities to travel to the destinations that are most important to them.”

United has also expanded service throughout Florida, including Key West, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Orlando, Tampa, Sarasota and West Palm Beach from its hubs in New York/Newark and Washington Dulles.

The airline’s growth is not limited to Florida, as United launched service to 33 destinations in 18 states from its domestic hubs over the last four months.
