Indy Airport Welcomes Back Two Nonstop Flights

INDIANAPOLIS (Oct. 27, 2022) – Southwest Airlines will resume two nonstop flights out of the Indianapolis International Airport (IND) beginning in the spring of 2023, with both flights headed to current top unserved destinations.

Southwest Airlines will reinstate its nonstop flight to Kansas City on April 11, 2023, operating two flights daily Monday through Friday, and one flight on Sundays. In addition, Southwest will resume a summer seasonal nonstop flight to San Diego on Saturdays starting June 4, 2023. Nonstop flights to these cities have not been available since before the pandemic.

San Diego is currently the top unserved nonstop destination out of Indianapolis.

“Both flights represent more signs that air travel is returning close to pre-pandemic levels, and the Kansas City flight schedule specifically supports business travel – which has slowly increased in recent months,” said Mario Rodriguez, executive director of the Indianapolis Airport Authority.

The Kansas City flight is in part the result of a local corporate push to make daily nonstop air travel available for Indy-based business operations.

Southwest currently operates 15 nonstop flights from Indy to Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Cancun, Dallas, Denver, Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Houston, Las Vegas, Orlando, Panama City, Phoenix, Sarasota-Bradenton and Tampa and makes up approximately 26% of total enplanements currently out of the Indy airport.
