Southwest began flying to Belize from Denver in early 2017. The airline also offered direct service from Houston Hobby International Airport and later added a direct flight from Ft. Lauderdale. However, all flights ceased due to the closure of the PGIA due to the pandemic.
Air connectivity is the pedigree of Belize's tourism industry. BTB therefore welcomes the resumption of Southwest Airline flights because it will make it easier for travelers to enjoy the beauty, multiple attractions and warm hospitality of Belize at a time when the industry is now recovering.
