United today announced it will offer more flights to Florida this winter than it has in the airline's history – growing its schedule by nearly 20% compared to last winter with more flights to popular sun destinations including Miami, Tampa and Orlando and by flying larger planes with more seats.

For the first time in the company's history, United will fly mainline aircraft and nearly double the amount of seats between Key West International Airport and several United Hub airports including Chicago O'Hare, Washington Dulles, Houston, and Newark/New York.

And for those customers who prefer snow over sand, the airline remains the nation's largest carrier to popular ski destinations, with direct flights this winter to 11 different winter sports hubs including Jackson Hole, Vail and Big Sky.

According to new search and booking data from United.com, Miami and Orlando are two of the top five most-searched domestic travel destinations this winter. Honolulu, Cancun and Las Vegas round out the top five most-searched destinations from November 1 to March 31.

With demand for travel to Florida this winter up significantly compared to last year, United is flying larger aircraft that give customers more options on how they choose to fly with the airline. Reinforcing the airline's United Next strategy, customers are able to customize their travel journey more than ever before – whether they'd like to have an elevated experience in United First® or a budget-friendly Basic Economy fare.

United will fly one of its newest planes – the Airbus 321neo – on select routes to Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Fort Myers, FL beginning in December, adding more seats to some of Florida's most popular cities. The company recently announced the purchase of 60 additional Airbus 321neos, with deliveries beginning in 2028.  

Tickets are now available for purchase on the United app or on United.com.
