United Airlines has announced a significant update to ease travel for skiers heading west this winter. Starting this season, the airline will launch its first nonstop flights from Washington D.C.’s Dulles International Airport to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, a popular ski destination.
The new service will operate seasonally, running weekly flights on Saturdays from December 20 through March 28. This addition expands United’s seasonal nonstop offerings from the D.C. area to major western ski resorts.
Jackson Hole joins other ski destinations served by United from Dulles, including Bozeman, Montana, and Steamboat Springs, Colorado. The airline also maintains daily nonstop flights to Denver throughout the year.
According to reports, United Airlines is building a growing network of flights from Dulles to western ski towns, aiming to attract travelers who seek convenient access to top ski locations. The airline has earned a reputation for connecting passengers to unique and less common destinations.
Industry experts note that the Dulles to Jackson Hole route will specifically appeal to high-spending ski travelers visiting the Wyoming resort for winter getaways.
Travelers can find fares and package details for flights to Jackson Hole on United Airlines’ official website, making it easier for East Coast skiers to plan their trips to the mountains.
