New flight schedules released by Southwest Airlines and AirTran

January 22, 2012

Southwest Airlines and its wholly owned subsidiary AirTran Airways have each released flight schedules for the period from 12 August until 28 September 2012.

While the airlines' networks are not yet connected, the carriers say they are working together to publish the best flight schedules to places customers want to go. Each carrier is adding new nonstop routes with this schedule.

Southwest will add three new daily nonstop flights from Atlanta to both Norfolk and Louisville, and two new daily nonstop flights from St Louis to each of New York LaGuardia and San Antonio. AirTran will add two new daily nonstop flights between Akron-Canton and Chicago Midway.

Meanwhile, two daily nonstop flights at Seattle-Tacoma (SEA) will transition from AirTran to Southwest, so that from 12 August the latter will offer 41 flights from Seattle, which will become the first airport to fully convert to Southwest Airlines service.
