DALLAS, Dec. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV - News) continues connecting the dots on its route map by introducing nonstop flights between the following key cities beginning April 6, 2003.
Two daily nonstop flights between Phoenix and Detroit.
One weekend-only flight between Reno and Burbank.
One weekend-only flight between Reno and San Diego.
The airline also will add one daily nonstop flight each way between the
following cities:
-- Between Baltimore/Washington and Austin (for a total of two daily
roundtrips).
-- Between Baltimore/Washington and Phoenix (for a total of five daily
roundtrips).
-- Between Baltimore/Washington and San Antonio (for a total of two daily

"In today's economy, business connections mean everything. At Southwest, that means it's not what you know, but where you go," said Joyce Rogge, Southwest's senior vice president of marketing. "By connecting the dots, we're adding service to places our Customers want to go."
Southwest is offering a discounted fare of $99 each way for the daily nonstop service between Detroit and Phoenix available for purchase now through April 6, 2003. The airline is offering a fare of $59 each way for the nonstop service between Reno and Burbank or San Diego available for purchase now through April 12, 2003. Both fares are good for travel on the nonstop service only through the end of Southwest's published schedule (currently June 6, 2003). Tickets must be purchased at least seven days prior to departure and within one day of making reservations. Roundtrip purchase and an overnight stay are required. Seats are limited and may not be available on some flights that operate during peak travel times, such as Easter weekend. Tickets are nonrefundable, but unused tickets may be applied toward the purchase of future travel on Southwest Airlines (except for tickets purchased through the Southwest Airlines Group Tickets program). Fares do not include a federal segment tax of $3 per takeoff and landing. These fares also do not include airport-assessed passenger facility charges of up to $9 roundtrip or federal September 11th Security Fees of up to $5 roundtrip per person. Fares are subject to change until ticketed, and any change in itinerary could result in an increase in the fare.
Southwest Airlines is the nation's fourth largest carrier in terms of Customer boardings. The airline serves 59 airports in 58 cities in 30 states and operates nearly 2,800 daily departures nationwide.
