Southwest now offers a non-stop flight from Denver to Belize

Beginning on March 11, 2017, Southwest is now operating a new non-stop flight between Denver’s International Airport (DIA) and the Philip Goldson International Airport in Belize City (BZE). The new flight will be operated weekly on Saturday morning, departing from Denver at 10:30 AM and arriving in Belize at 2:50 PM (Belize and Denver time). The new route is scheduled to continue until April 22, 2017, in response to growing demand to travel to Belize from the Denver market. In 2016, more than 13,000 passengers from the Denver area traveled to Belize, a 50% increase from just three years ago.

The new Denver-Belize flight joins Southwest’s recent expansion into the international market. Southwest currently operates a non-stop flight from Houston’s Hobby Airport (HOU) to Belize and is scheduled to begin non-stop flights from the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) Airport in Florida beginning on June 4, 2017.

Southwest’s entry into the popular Belize market is the result of growing tourist demand. Celebrities ranging from the Trump daughters to Olympic gold medal athletes have been flocking to Belize to enjoy the wide range of exciting vacation opportunities, including exploring ancient Maya ruins, hiking and bird watching in pristine rainforests, and enjoying the sun and surf of the great Belize Barrier Reef. Southwest joins airlines like American, Delta, United, WestJet, COPA, and Avianca in connecting the small nation of Belize to the rest of the world, making traveling to the country easier and more affordable than ever.

About the same size as Vermont, Belize is a small country in Central America located just south of Mexico. The only country in the region where English is the official language, Belize is an eclectic melting pot of different cultures, each adding their own unique contributions to the cuisine. Blessed with abundant sunshine and warm temperatures all year round, Belize is rapidly a hot vacation destination for honeymoons, weddings, families, and adventure travelers alike.

Located just a short 20-minute drive from the international airport in Belize City, the Black Orchid Resort is a beautiful oasis of tranquility located on the banks of the Old Belize River in the idyllic village of Burrell Boom. Featuring lovely suites and rooms with all modern conveniences, the Black Orchid Resort has its own gourmet restaurant, swimming pool, and screened in porch to enjoy the unspoiled views of the nearby river and nature.

Black Orchid Resort is conveniently close to all of the top attractions in the country, including ancient Maya ruins, the offshore islands, and beautiful nature areas and national parks.
