Southwest Hobby nonstop to Reagan National Airport

HOUSTON – Southwest Airlines is planning to launch new nonstop flight service between Houston’s William P. Hobby Airport and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport starting in August 2013.

The announcement means that air passengers in Houston will soon have the ability to access Reagan National Airport from both William P. Hobby Airport and George Bush Intercontinental Airport.

The new route completes a triad of nonstop service options between Houston and the metropolitan airports in Boston, New York and Washington, D.C. and further underscores the airlines’ commitment to business travelers who value these nonstop flights.

Southwest Airlines recently launched nonstop service to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Charlotte, North Carolina, in addition to announcing planned service to New York’s LaGuardia Airport beginning in June 2013.

Southwest Airlines currently operates 153 daily departures from Hobby Airport.
