Southwest Airlines is increasing its flight schedule to accommodate Taylor Swift fans attending the Eras Tour concerts in October.
The airline announced it will provide 10 additional flights to and from Miami and New Orleans in October to support Swift’s concerts.
On October 17, Southwest will add flights from Baltimore/Washington to Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood and from Nashville to Miami, with return flights on October 20.
On October 24, additional flights will be available from Austin and Baltimore/Washington to New Orleans. The airline is also adding flights from Dallas and San Antonio to New Orleans on the following day.
Southwest has creatively linked flight numbers to Swift’s songs, such as Flight 22 and Flight 1989, referencing her song “22” and album “1989.”
“Southwest is thrilled to welcome Swifties and looks forward to celebrating with them as they travel to see one of the most successful female artists of all time!” the airline said. “And remember, just like your first two checked bags, bracelets fly free!”
Swift’s global tour has boosted her to billionaire status thanks to the substantial revenue generated from the shows. Additionally, the tour has significantly benefited host cities, which have experienced major increases in spending when Swift and her fans are in town.
