Straight from the Cap City to Music City!

No longer will you have to switch in Baltimore, Charlotte, Detroit or Atlanta in order to get to Nashville. This spring, travelers can take advantage of direct flights from Albany to Nashville.

On Thursday, Southwest Airlines announced they will begin offering non-stop service from Albany to Nashville beginning April 8, 2025. Flights will be offered six days a week. Each flight lasts about two and a half hours.
