Low-cost Breeze Airways has slashed even more fares to dozens of cities across its network for last-minute fall travel.
“It's not too late to plan a fall getaway,” the airline shared on its website. “Discover cool deals on flights and plan a last-minute trip you won't forget.”
The airline's newest promotion, available for booking until Thursday, Oct. 10 at 11:59 p.m. PT, applies to flights from now through Wednesday, Nov. 20. No promo code is needed to find these deals, as the tickets are already discounted on Breeze’s website or app.
Travel + Leisure discovered many great one-way flights on sale, and all of these displayed prices include government taxes and fees:
The discounted fares are available in Breeze's «No Flex Fare» class, which limits passengers to bring a personal item onboard no larger than a backpack. For added perks such as seat assignments, flexible change policies, and extra baggage allowance, travelers can upgrade to the «Nice» class or higher.
Breeze Airways, created by JetBlue founder David Neeleman, has been flying for over three years. The airline connects smaller cities to popular destinations across the country and continues to expand rapidly.
This latest fall sale comes as Breeze has announced several new routes to Florida this winter from several cities including Provo, Gulfport, Ogsdenburgh, and Erie. By the end of the year, Breeze will transition to an all-Airbus A220 fleet for its commercial flights, which offer fast Wi-Fi and spacious seating in a 2-3 configuration.

Houston residents will have a new option to Tokyo when budget airline Zipair launches new flights for as low as $333 one way beginning next March. Zipair, a subsidiary of Japan Airlines, will connect Houston’s Bush Intercontinental Airport and Tokyo’s Narita Airport four-days-a-week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from March 4, 2025, the airport announced Wednesday. The nearly 14-hour flights will be on Boeing 787-8 Dreamliners with 18 lie-flat business class seats and 272 economy seats. The under-$400 fare comes as a big savings compared to other airlines on the Houston-Tokyo route. All Nippon Airways (ANA) and United Airlines both offer daily flights with airfares starting at $595 one way for a basic, no-frills ticket next March. Prices climb quickly after that. “We look forward to welcoming new and seasoned travelers to take advantage of our fully customizable travel experience, including complimentary Wi-Fi service” Shingo Nishida, President of ZipairTokyo, said in the announcement. The promotional $333 fare is available for sale on ZIPAIR’s website through Nov. 30.
Nonstop travel options between Texas and Tokyo are about to get interesting. On Thursday, low-cost carrier ZIPAIR Tokyo announced a major new route linking Houston with the Japanese capital.
