Southwest Airlines has resumed flights to Belize from Houston (Hobby) on November 07, putting an end to the hiatus caused by the COVID pandemic. The Airline will offer a non-stop service from Houston from Sunday to Saturday departing Houston at 10:55 am and arriving in Belize at 13:15 pm. Flights from Southwest’s Denver hub are set to return later this month.
Tropic Air Belize has shared the images of the aircraft’s arrival to Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport:
Flights will depart Belize at 14:10 pm and arrive in Houston at 16:40 pm. On Saturdays, the flight will depart Houston at the same time but will return a bit later at 16:45 pm arriving in Houston at 19:50 pm.
The flight from Denver will be on Saturdays only. It will depart at 10:50 am and arrive in Belize at 15:50 pm. The flight will depart Belize at 14:10 pm and arrive in Denver at 17:40 pm.
Southwest started flying to Belize from Denver in early 2017. The airline also offered a non-stop service from Hobby International Airport in Houston and later on added a direct flight from Ft. Lauderdale.
When the resumption was announced last June, the Belize Tourism Board stated that «air connectivity is the bloodline of Belize’s tourism industry» and that the flights «will make it easier for travelers to enjoy the beauty, the myriad attractions and warm hospitality of Belize at a time when the industry is now on its path to recovery.»
