INDIANAPOLIS — Southwest Airlines announced plans Thursday to add a daily nonstop flight from Indianapolis to Nashville, Tennessee.
The airline said the new flight will begin on March 6, 2025.
“We’ve been pursuing this nonstop flight with Southwest for over seven years,” said Mario Rodriguez, executive director of the Indianapolis Airport Authority. “And it will launch just in time for the Spring Break travel season and operate year-round.”
“Indianapolis and Nashville share business in many target industries for the regions, including healthcare, tech, logistics/manufacturing, motorsports and music. The cities are close enough for weekend getaways, conferences and visits with loved ones,” said Maggie Cunningham, director of air service development at Indianapolis International Airport. “This flight will connect business and leisure travelers to the Music City and serve as a conduit for passengers connecting on other flights through Southwest’s Nashville focus city,”
Southwest also announced it will increase its capacity overall through the Indy airport year over year during the peak 2025 Spring Break travel season.
Currently, Southwest flies nonstop out of Indianapolis to Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Cancun, Dallas-Love, Denver, Panama City, Ft. Lauderdale, Houston-Hobby, Las Vegas, Kansas City, Orlando, Miami, Phoenix, Ft. Myers, San Diego, Sarasota/Bradenton and Tampa.
