Here are key takeaways:

  • Breeze will launch nonstop service from FLL to Tallahassee on July 2, with one-way fares starting at $39. New routes to Jacksonville (from $49) and Tampa (from $40, 13 times weekly) begin July 1.
  • The airline announced the expansion on Feb. 24. Five of the 11 new or expanded routes strengthen its “intra-Florida” network, and its existing Pensacola route will increase to six times weekly.
  • Beyond Florida, Breeze is adding new nonstop service to Charleston, South Carolina; Greenville-Spartanburg, South Carolina; Salisbury, Maryland; Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Pennsylvania; and Birmingham, Alabama. One-way fares on those routes range from $49 to $79.
  • Breeze began serving Broward County on Nov. 5, roughly four months before the announcement. “Some flights out of Fort Lauderdale are routes that used to have air service by a number of carriers and people have not had that option,” chief commercial officer Lukas Johnson told the South Florida Sun Sentinel.
  • Existing routes to Myrtle Beach and Savannah will also see increased frequencies starting July 1, with Savannah going from twice to four times a week.
