Breeze Airlines will offer five new direct flights to San Diego International Airport this spring, it was announced Tuesday.
Starting April 30, the low-cost carrier will offer flights to Cincinnati, Ohio; Jacksonville, Florida; Norfolk, Virginia; Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – all new SAN routes.
Breeze will also offer one-time or no-plane daily change flights to Providence, Rhode Island, and Hartford, Connecticut.
“We welcome Breeze Airways to San,” Hampton Brown, vice president and chief revenue officer of the San Diego Regional Airport Authority, said in a statement. “We look forward to providing nonstop access between SAN and these five new destinations. Breeze Airways will be the first airline in SAN to offer these routes that will connect Southern Californians to many cities across the country and provide travelers easy access to sunny San Diego.”
According to the airline, prices on the new nonstop flights start at up to $129 one way, if purchased by Monday, for travel by September 3. Breeze is offering a 35% discount on all basic round-trip fares for travel from January 15 through January 15. May 22 if promo code “GETFRESH” is used at checkout on the Breeze app or at flybreeze.com. The offer is available until Friday.
“We are thrilled to add service to San Diego, our fifth California destination, offering five new nonstop flights and two direct destinations from San Diego International Airport,” Tom Doxey, president of Breeze Airways, said in a statement. “Now San Diegans won't have to connect when traveling to these seven locations, they can get there twice as fast for about half the price, and travelers from those cities will have fast, affordable travel opportunities to enjoy San Diego.”
Breeze offers passengers combination and a la carte options known as Nice, Nicer, and on flights operated with the Airbus A220-300, Nicest. Ajmal's package includes two checked bags, priority boarding and Breeze Ascent — the carrier's in-flight experience that features 2×2 recliner-style seating and complimentary snacks and beverages, including alcohol.
According to a statement, the flights from San Diego will be operated with an Airbus A220-300 equipped with 12 lie-flat seats, 45 extra legroom seats and 80 standard economy seats.
