From January 2012, Southwest Airlines will cut its service to Philadelphia from Manchester and Providence, and will also reduce its service to Philadelphia from Boston. The cut equates to a 25% reduction in daily flights between Philadelphia and Logan International Airport and is due to a lack of demand for Philadelphia flights.
Southwest will reduce the number of flights from Philadelphia to Logan to six from eight daily in January, and to five a day in February.
The airline is also cutting its daily flight from T.F. Green airport, near Providence, to Phoenix, but replacing it with a southwest flight to Colorado.
But from January 8, Southwest will launch a new daily flight from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport to Fort Lauderdale, Fla. It is also adding a daily flight from T.F. Green to Denver.
