Des Moines International Airport has announced that it will begin offering nonstop flights to Nashville starting in March 2027. The new flights will be operated by Southwest Airlines and will mark the first new service to be offered as a result of the airport’s new terminal, which is currently under construction and set to open in January.
New Terminal and Flight Options
The new terminal is a $550 million project that has been in the works for several years. Airport leaders say that the new terminal will not only provide a more modern and efficient travel experience for passengers but also create opportunities for future growth and development. The addition of nonstop flights to Nashville is seen as a significant step forward in this effort.
According to Brian Mulcahy, Chief Executive Officer of the Des Moines Airport Authority, the new terminal is about more than just bricks and glass – it’s about creating capacity for what’s next. Mulcahy expressed excitement about the potential for future growth and development that the new terminal will bring, saying that the community’s investment in the project has the potential to create new opportunities for the region.
