What’s better: watching the sun rise over the Atlantic, or sailing through the San Juan’s at sunset? Or maybe sampling some wine at an Oregon vineyard is more your style? Thankfully, starting this year you won’t have to choose: Southwest Airlines will launch service to Myrtle Beach, S.C. (MYR), Eugene, Ore. (EUG), and Bellingham, Wash. (BLI) in the second half of 2021. Keep an eye on Southwest.com for more details about routes and prices when schedules are published later this year!

- Bellingham, Wash.—located in northern Washington, between the Cascade Mountains and the Salish Sea—will be a great gateway for anyone excited about exploring the Pacific Northwest, including those headed to the San Juan Islands, Skagit Valley Tulip Festival, or North Cascades National Park.
