Travelers at San Antonio International Airport now have the option to fly nonstop to Oklahoma City, MySA reports.

Southwest Airlines celebrated the airline’s latest expansion Sunday during a ribbon cutting ceremony at San Antonio International Airport. The once-daily route will ferry passengers to Oklahoma City’s Will Rogers World Airport on Southwest’s new 737-700 aircraft, the news site reports.

The route commenced ahead of schedule, since flights between SAT and OKC weren’t originally expected to start until April 25.
