LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Southwest Airlines is adding new nonstop jet service between Louisville and Denver later this year.

The flights will begin Nov. 4 and will be aboard 137-seat Boeing 737 aircraft.

The new service will give Southwest 17 daily nonstop flights to nine cities.

Louisville International Airport spokeswoman Trish Burke says in addition to the flights being added by Southwest, United has two daily flights, including one seasonal and one year-round, and Frontier has one daily flight to Denver.
