MILWAUKEE – Southwest Airlines announced Thursday, Aug. 22, plans to add nonstop service between Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport and Austin, Texas, beginning in March 2025.
The new non-stop flights will operate five days a week, Monday to Friday, starting March 6, 2025, with a full-size Boeing 737-700 aircraft.
“We know there is strong demand for flights to Austin, and we are excited to see Southwest expand with this brand new destination at MKE,” said airport director Brian Dranzik. “We look forward to offering our travelers to Milwaukee this convenient new nonstop option, and we encourage them to use this route so we can maintain this service.”
In addition to the Austin route announcement, the airline will resume nonstop service to popular spring break destinations in March 2025. In addition to daily service to Orlando, Tampa and Fort Myers, Southwest will fly between MKE and Cancun on Saturdays and Sundays from March 6 through April 7.
