Southwest Airlines is expanding its flight schedule to assist Taylor Swift fans in attending Eras Tour concerts in October.
The airline will offer 10 additional flights to and from Miami and New Orleans in October for Swift’s performances.
On October 17, Southwest added 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. Furthermore, flights from Dallas and San Antonio to New Orleans will be added the following day.
Southwest has linked some of the flight numbers to Taylor Swift’s songs, such as Flight 22 and Flight 1989, referencing her song “22” and album “1989.”
“Southwest is excited 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 stated. “And remember, just like your first two checked bags, bracelets fly free!”
Swift’s global tour has significantly increased her wealth, propelling her into billionaire status due to the immense revenue generated. Additionally, the tour has greatly benefited host cities, leading to substantial boosts in local spending whenever Swift and her fans visit.
