The new nonstop destination is one of four the airline has announced from Indianapolis International Airport this month.
Allegiant Air will begin flying from Indianapolis to Portland, and Frontier Airlines plans to launch flights from Indianapolis to Atlanta and Tampa.
Indianapolis Airport Authority officials are looking to 2023 and 2024, with a focus on renewing the nonstop flight to Paris and possibly other international destinations.
Indianapolis Airport Authority Executive Director Mario Rodriguez said the Key West flight marks No. 21 in a lineup of nonstop flights announced by the airport so far in 2021.
The airport has added nearly 20 nonstop routes since the start of the year, a number that’s still shy of pre-pandemic levels but is a sign of recovery, at least in leisure travel.
The flights, which will run from May 27 through Labor Day weekend, will connect Indianapolis with cities in Maine and South Carolina.
Routes to both cities begins at the end of May. The airline also plans to offer service from Indianapolis to Rapid City, South Dakota, in August for the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
The flights are set to depart Indianapolis twice daily Sunday though Friday and once on Saturdays starting May 7. Tickets will begin going on sale this weekend.
Indianapolis International Airport officials say they’re encouraged by strong passenger bookings during the first year of Delta Air Lines Inc.’s nonstop service to Paris.
