Grab your passports — Here’s what to know before service to four new cities takes off next spring:

Just in time for spring break travel, nonstop service from Nashville to Los Cabos International Airport and Punta Cana Airport will operate weekly on Saturdays.

Reykjavik, Iceland

Airline: Icelandair | Launch date: Thursday, April 10

The ~seven-hour nonstop flight will operate on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday with seating for 160 passengers. It’s scheduled to run through October, meaning travelers will have the summer to explore waterfalls, glaciers, and hot springs before the midnight sunsets.
