    Breeze Airways adds Flights from Long Island MacArthur
    Breeze Airways founder David Neeleman announces the new service at MacArthur Airport (ISP).

    Breeze Airways announced that it is adding eight new routes in February 2022 from New York’s Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP) and Palm Beach International Airport (PBI), the first market additions since the new carrier’s debut in May of 2021. 

    “Breeze’s business model is to add nice, new nonstop flights on routes where only connecting service is offered by other carriers,” said Breeze CEO David Neeleman in a Monday news release. “We’re excited to introduce Breeze service to South Florida and the New York area, and look forward to adding more routes from both Palm Beach and Islip.”

    The eight new roundtrip routes and their one-way starting prices include:

    • Starting Feb. 17: Long Island and Norfolk, Virginia, on Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays and Mondays, starting at $39  
    • Starting Feb. 18: Long Island and Charleston, South Carolina, Fridays and Mondays starting at $39 
    • Starting Feb. 19: Palm Beach to Charleston, South Carolina, and New Orleans, Louisiana, on Saturdays starting at $39  
    • Starting Feb. 19: Palm Beach to Akron/Canton, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Norfolk, Virginia; and Richmond, Virginia, on Saturdays starting at $59  

    “David Neeleman’s mission to bring together a nice group of people to run a seriously nice airline with great service, innovation, and low fares won our hearts from the start,” said Long Island MacArthur Airport Commissioner Shelley LaRose-Arken. “We are a different kind of Airport located in the largest metro market in the Country. Breeze offers a unique opportunity to disrupt the marketplace with its competitive fares and reshape air travel for Long Island and New York with its fast, affordable, point-to-point service.” 

    With the two new destinations, Breeze Airways will service 18 cities in 14 states:

    • Palm Beach, Florida
    • Long Island, New York
    • Tampa, Florida
    • Charleston, South Carolina
    • Louisville, Kentucky
    • Tulsa, Oklahoma
    • Norfolk, Virginia
    • Bentonville/Fayetteville, Arkansas
    • Akron/Canton, Ohio
    • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
