"San Diego is a top destination for those wanting to get outdoors and vacation in a socially distanced manner," said San Diego County Regional Airport Authority President and CEO Kimberly Becker. "These new routes also provide San Diegans the opportunity to explore historic landmarks and hidden gems across the North and Midwest regions of the United States."
