Breeze Airways will start operating 18 new routes and to five new cities in the United States starting in autumn 2024, expanding its network to 64 nonstop destinations across 30 states.
The airline announced its inaugural route connecting Newark, New Jersey, to Charleston, West Virginia. The new route will link Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to Charleston Yeager Airport (CRW), operating two times a week on Thursdays and Sundays. It is set to start running on November 14, 2024.
This is the only nonstop route from Newark so far, including the option to travel to Orlando, Florida, through a “Breeze Thru” service that allows passengers to travel without additional transfers.
“With the addition of Newark, Breeze now serves four New York City area airports while continuing to expand our footprint across the US,” David Neeleman, Breeze Airways CEO, said to local media. “By connecting the dots between underserved city pairs, we are giving travelers more options than ever to fly affordably and comfortably to over 60 destinations across 30 states on more than 200 nonstop flights.”

The new routes will connect Florida’s Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB) with New York’s Westchester County Airport (HPN), Hartford Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU), and Rhode Island.
