Southwest Resumes Flights Between Indy, San Diego
San Diego is currently the top unserved destination out of Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS (June 10, 2023) – Southwest Airlines will fill a long-standing need for travelers looking for a nonstop flight from Indy to San Diego – which is currently the top unserved destination out of the Indianapolis International Airport (IND). But as of today, that will change as Southwest resumes this in-demand seasonal nonstop flight.
The Southwest Indy to San Diego route was previously suspended due to the pandemic in 2020. The new once-weekly nonstop flights will depart Indy each Saturday starting today through the first week of November 2023.
“As predicted, air travel is resuming in 2023 to nearly pre-pandemic levels, and these crucial nonstop flight resumptions are proof of that rebound,” said Mario Rodriguez, executive director of the Indianapolis Airport Authority. “And while we’re still seeing leisure travel making up the biggest portion of air travel, we are also seeing business travel start to shake off the impact of the pandemic and return closer to 2019 levels.”
In April, Southwest also resumed its twice-daily nonstop flights from Indy to Kansas City, which is in part the result of a local corporate push to make daily nonstop air travel available for Indy-based business operations.
In addition to Kansas City and San Diego resumptions, Southwest currently serves 16 nonstop destinations from Indy to Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Cancun, Dallas, Denver, Panama City, Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Houston, Las Vegas, Orlando, Miami, Phoenix, Sarasota-Bradenton and Tampa.
