Nashville International Airport will hit a triple digit milestone this week with the launch of its 100th nonstop destination — a new Southwest Airlines flight to Memphis, which also marks the airport’s only intrastate route.

The number won’t sit at 100 for long — here’s what’s coming next:

  • By the end of April, Nashville will offer 109 nonstop destinations.
  • From May through July, the number rises to 113.
  • On Tuesday, Aug. 5, the airport will hit 114 nonstop destinations with Southwest Airlines’ flight between Nashville and Louisville.

Additional nonstop flights on the way include Tulsa, OK, San Antonio, TX, and Providence, RI — but it’s not just about domestic travel. Starting Thursday, April 10, travelers can fly nonstop to Reykjavík, Iceland + Dublin, Ireland will join the lineup on Saturday, April 12. These new international routes join recent additions like Los Cabos and Punta Cana.

To celebrate these milestones, the airport kicked off its #SummerOf100 initiative, inviting travelers to share their BNA stories across different themes from April to August.
