Southwest To Offer Nonstop Flights Between Pittsburgh and San Diego
It's the first time nonstop service has been available between the two cities since early 2019.
For the past three years, flying from Pittsburgh to San Diego has always required at least one layover. That will change next summer when Southwest Airlines begins nonstop, seasonal service between the two cities.
There will be one flight a week, on Saturdays each way from June 8 through August. The inbound flight will leave San Diego at 8:35 a.m. and arrive in Pittsburgh at 4:10 p.m. The outbound flight will leave at 4:35 p.m. and land in San Diego at 6:35 p.m. according to Blue Sky News.
Southwest also announced it will resume seasonal service to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina in June with daily flights, increasing to twice daily on Saturdays. Additionally, service to Nashville, Tennessee will increase to three daily flights on peak days.
San Diego becomes the fourth West Coast city, joining Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, with nonstop service to and from Pittsburgh.
Frontier Airlines was the last to offer nonstop service to San Diego in January of 2019.
