More Ways to Get Here: New Nonstop Flights Make Myrtle Beach Even Easier

Myrtle Beach has always been an easy place to love. Wide beaches. Relaxed pace. A coastline that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Now, getting here—or getting away for a quick Florida escape—just became even easier.

Breeze Airways has officially launched new nonstop flights from Myrtle Beach International Airport, adding direct service to Fort Lauderdale and, soon, Orlando. It is a small change on paper, but one that makes a big difference for travelers.

A Simple Route That Opens Big Possibilities

The new Myrtle Beach–Fort Lauderdale route begins with flights twice a week, operating on Mondays and Fridays. That schedule alone creates convenient options for long weekends, extended stays, or easy connections for travelers heading south.

Starting February 13, the route expands to four flights per week, adding Tuesdays and Saturdays. More days. More flexibility. Less planning stress.

Even more exciting for families and vacationers, nonstop service to Orlando begins February 5, with flights scheduled on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. That means theme parks, cruises, and Central Florida attractions are now just one direct flight away.

Why This Matters for Visitors

Nonstop flights change the rhythm of travel. They remove layovers, shorten travel days, and make weekend trips more realistic. For visitors coming to Myrtle Beach, that means less time in airports and more time with toes in the sand.

Affordable fares also matter. With one-way prices starting as low as $59, these routes make spontaneous trips, seasonal getaways, and return visits far more accessible.

For Myrtle Beach, expanded air service means continued growth as a destination that is not only beautiful but easy to reach.

Myrtle Beach Keeps Getting More Connected

Each new route strengthens Myrtle Beach’s position as a well-connected coastal hub. Whether guests are arriving from Florida or using Myrtle Beach as a starting point for another vacation, these nonstop options add convenience and choice.

It also reflects the city’s continued investment in tourism infrastructure—ensuring visitors can arrive smoothly, stay comfortably, and return often.

New Skies Ahead: Myrtle Beach Welcomes Two New Nonstop Flights for Summer Travelers

A New Breeze Over the Grand Strand

Every so often, Myrtle Beach gets a small gift from the wider world—something that whispers of more travelers, more stories, and more memories waiting to be made along our shoreline. This time, the gift arrives in the form of two new nonstop flights joining the Myrtle Beach International Airport lineup next year. For a place defined by the rhythm of tides and the comings and goings of curious visitors, the promise of easier access always feels like good news.

Two New Paths Into the Carolina Coast

Starting May 22, 2026, Allegiant will open direct routes between Myrtle Beach and two new cities: Dayton, Ohio and Elmira Corning, New York. What catches the eye isn’t just the simplicity of a nonstop hop—it’s the starting fare. With one-way seats beginning at $49, the gateway to the Grand Strand becomes even more inviting for travelers looking for sunshine without breaking the budget.

These routes join a larger national expansion, part of Allegiant’s effort to connect more American cities to places where people go to unwind, breathe easier, and let the salt air comb through their thoughts.

What This Means for Locals and Visitors

For locals, new flights often carry more than new faces; they carry opportunity. Easier travel brings family closer, shortens business trips, and widens the world. For visitors, it means stepping off a plane and feeling the warm Atlantic breeze sooner, without layovers or long waits.

The Midwest and Northeast have always sent loyal beachgoers our way. Now, with gentler pricing and more direct access, Myrtle Beach becomes an even clearer invitation: the coast is calling—come as you are.

Why Affordable Travel Matters Here

There’s something honest about offering travelers a simple, affordable ticket. It speaks to the spirit of Myrtle Beach, where families return year after year because the ocean still feels like home. A starting fare of $49 invites more than tourists; it welcomes dreamers, planners, weekend escape-seekers, and anyone longing for a horizon that glows a little warmer than the one back home.
