United Airlines will start seasonal service this month from Newark Liberty International Airport to Naples, Italy.
Beginning May 22 and running through Oct. 4, there will be one daily round-trip flight. This will be the only airline to fly nonstop once the service begins.
Choosing Naples as a destination for nonstop service is a brand new market, said a United Airlines spokesperson, which the company believes customers will want to travel to.
“Naples is also another option for United customers traveling to Italy,” said Jonathan Guerin, a spokesperson for United. “From Newark, United serves Milan, Rome, Venice and Naples will be our newest way to access southern Italy.”
United previously said seasonal flights will be available from Newark to Porto, Portugal.
These seasonal roll outs come as Delta has already committed to having seasonal service from the Czech capital to John F Kennedy International Airport in New York.
