The new nonstop flights will each start in October from Fort Myers and Tampa and fly to Long Island, NY, Burlington, VT, and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA, the airline shared with Travel + Leisure.
“Breeze continues to expand our fall and winter service into Florida, and now serves eight destinations within the state,” Breeze Airways’ President Tom Doxey said in a statement shared with T+L. “Now Guests in Long Island, Burlington, and Scranton will have more opportunities to escape to the Sunshine State while enjoying Breeze’s Seriously Nice service and fares.”

Breeze is also putting all its other routes on sale for 35 percent off roundtrip flights with the promo code “DUPE.” That sale, which is part of the airline’s “Destinations Dupes” campaign, must be booked by 11:59 p.m. PT on June 27 for flights from Aug. 14 through Jan. 7, 2025. The sale excludes blackout dates from Nov. 20 through Dec. 3 and from Dec. 18 through Jan. 5, 2025.
