United Airlines is already the leading carrier at San Francisco International Airport.

Now the carrier is looking to expand its service.

The carrier will inaugurate service between San Francisco and Belize City, Belize. The non stop seasonal flights begin on December 21.

The flight will be once a week. They were initiated by the Belize Tourism Board and intended to boost tourism. It also opens up another market for San Francisco to draw visitors from.

“We are excited to welcome nonstop United Airlines flights from SFO to Belize,” said Airport Director Ivar C. Satero. “For Bay Area travelers seeking a warm-weather getaway this winter, United’s new service will be a welcome addition to their wide range of destinations from SFO. We thank United for their commitment to SFO and are confident this new service will be a success.”

San Francisco International Airport has been embroiled with nearby Oakland over a name change to Oakland Airport that includes the words San Francisco.
