Vision Airlines, a charter service based in Atlanta, said Tuesday that it plans to launch scheduled service from Northwest Florida Regional Airport to 17 new markets, including Orlando-Sanford International Airport.
The airline said it will begin service from Sanford to the Panhandle starting April 1. Introductory fares will start at $49 each way, if booked by Jan. 23.
"Vision Airlines is excited to offer these new flight services to the community of Destin-Fort Walton Beach in a confident effort to bring visitors back to the destination," said David Meers the airline's chief operating officer of commercial operations.
Most of the new routes are short-haul flights from the Panhandle to cities in the Southeast, including Atlanta, Little Rock, Ark., and Asheville, N.C. The airline will offer the service on small aircraft, including the Boeing 737 and the Dornier 328, a German turboprop plane.
