Breeze Airways is the US airline startup that started flying in May 2021. While the airline initially launched operations with used Embraer E190/195 aircraft, eventually the Airbus A220 will be the backbone of the carrier’s fleet, as Breeze has 80 of these on order.
Breeze’s focus is on offering point-to-point service in underserved markets, and the airline has just announced its biggest expansion to date. As of the summer of 2022, Breeze is adding 35 routes to 10 new cities, so let’s go over the details.

My take on Breeze’s expansion
With this latest expansion, in the summer of 2022 Breeze will operate a total of 77 routes to 28 cities in 18 states. It’s really cool to see Breeze Airways’ route network developing in this way. With the airline soon starting service with A220s, we’ll finally get to experience the potential of what Breeze has been promising.
A few random thoughts:
- It’s cool to see Breeze finally expanding further west, with flights to California and Nevada
- I’m particularly excited to see Breeze finally adding some transcon routes, which we hadn’t seen until now; routes like Syracuse to Las Vegas and Providence to Los Angeles are particularly exciting
- The service to San Bernardino is interesting, since Breeze will be the only commercial airline operating there, yet the airline will only offer once daily service to San Francisco
Bottom line
Breeze Airways is continuing to expand significantly, and now the airline has revealed huge growth plans for summer 2022. The airline is adding 35 new routes, including flights to 10 new airports. Much of this growth comes as Breeze is putting A220s into service, as this plane opens up all kinds of new route potential.
I’m looking forward to trying Breeze’s A220s when they enter service in May!
