Second, twice-daily non-stop flights to Austin are set to begin September 9. Lastly, in April, American Airlines announced a thrice-daily nonstop service to Boston , starting November 2.
Delta Airlines
Bonjour et bienvenue à Paris! On September 8, Delta Airlines' nonstop daily flight to Paris is scheduled to resume , Kershner said. As with Toronto, the restart date is not set in stone.

Southwest
Florida vacationers are in luck — on June 12, Southwest is adding Saturday flights to Sarasota and Fort Myers, Florida . In addition, the airline is upping weekly Orlando flights from seven to eight and adding another Saturday Tampa flight.
