would love to see swa start going there.  we always have to drive from BZN or SLC because flight prices are so high with DL, AA, & UA being the only airlines that fly there consistently.

Probably about 10 years after Knoxville TN.  I would imagine that this location will never be added.

Southwest used to fly there back in 85/86. But demand probably wasn't high enough then. Now, especially with the edition of airports like Bozeman, Montrose and Steamboat Springs, it definitely could be a possibility in the future. That said, Southwest expanded a lot at the onset of the pandemic to take advantage of open and cheaper slots/gates, so the fact that they did like 10 years of new destinations in the span of a few years, means that there probably won't be any airport additions for awhile. They need to let those new markets mature, plus rebuild the pre-pandemic network which I think is getting close to completion. Then there's the growth within the current network such as additional frequencies or new city pairings. So it could be awhile before we see anything new. Nonetheless, you can always make your suggestion directly to Southwest by hitting the Contact Us button at the bottom of the page.
