United Airlines announced Monday that it will launch a new direct flight from South Bend to Washington, D.C., less than a month after Breeze Airways launched the first nonstop service between the two cities. United’s route will operate daily.

Starting December 3, United will offer two daily flights between South Bend International Airport and Washington Dulles. The flight from South Bend departs at 10:00 a.m. and arrives at 11:45 a.m. The return flight departs Washington at 6:00 p.m. and arrives in South Bend at 8:00 p.m., allowing business travelers to make daily plans in the nation’s capital.

The new route is not limited to a visit to Washington.

“We are pleased that United is offering a second destination starting at SBN,” said Mike Daigle, CEO and executive director of SBN, in a statement. “The daily service enables easy connections to 135 national and international markets. For travelers whose final destination is Washington, DC, the Silver Line Metro station in Dulles provides access to trains via a covered pedestrian walkway from the airport to downtown.”

This is United Airlines’ second direct flight from South Bend, following the flight to Chicago O’Hare. South Bend International Airport’s five airlines offer nonstop flights to sixteen destinations: Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth, Detroit, Fort Myers, Knoxville, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Orlando, Punta Gorda, Phoenix/Mesa, Sanford , Sarasota/Bradenton, Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg and Washington DC
