Breeze Airways will be adding six new nonstop destinations at Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) starting this fall. Currently the airline offers service from SRQ to Hartford, Connecticut, and Providence, Rhode Island.
New nonstop destinations coming later this year include Westchester County, New York; Akron-Canton, Ohio; Portland, Maine; Long Island-Islip, New York; Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; and Richmond, Virginia. There will also be one-stop service with no plane change to Syracuse, New York.
“We’re thrilled to add six more nonstops and one BreezeThru route from Sarasota-Bradenton,” Breeze Airways founder and CEO David Neeleman said in a statement. “It’s been a great destination for us for the last two years, and it’s exciting to continue our growth.”
Breeze Airways launched in 2021, and this year, for the third consecutive time, it was ranked in the top five on Travel + Leisure’s list of the best United States airlines. It offers free family seating and à la carte pricing for things like extra legroom.
“The Sarasota Bradenton International Airport is excited to see the expansion of Breeze Airways with six new nonstop destinations from SRQ,” President and CEO of the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport Rick Piccolo said in a statement. “This rapid growth showcases Breeze Airways’ commitment and confidence in the region, and we are delighted to have them as a valued partner.”
Here are the new routes from SRQ and when they will begin:
Breeze announced its addition of six flights the day after Avelo Airlines made public its plans to offer service between SRQ and Philadelphia-Delaware.
Thanks to the new routes, SRQ will offer nonstop service to 60 destinations, according to a statement from the airport.
