Southwest Airlines’ Memphis-Dallas Service to Increase in January

Southwest Airlines will increase its nonstop service between Memphis International Airport (MEM) and Dallas Love Field Airport (DAL), with flights running three times daily beginning Jan. 7. The airline currently operates one flight per day between the two destinations. Southwest will utilize Boeing 737 aircraft with an average of 143 seats for the flight.

Southwest offers flights to seven destinations at MEM, including Baltimore, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Orlando and Tampa. The airline began operations at MEM in November 2013 and launched its Memphis-Dallas service in April 2015.

“Southwest’s additional Dallas frequencies are a tremendous development for our passengers,” said Pace Cooper, Chairman of the Board of Commissioners for the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority. “These additional frequencies will increase connectivity to Dallas and will provide more options for passengers who are connecting to western destinations.”
