Mar. 27—Breeze Airways is now offering nonstop flights to Vero Beach, Raleigh and Phoenix, adding to the Utah-based, budget-friendly airline's nonstop routes from Hartford's Bradley International Airport.
The airline announced the new routes in October and they became active in February.
Breeze has been investing in East Coast flight paths. The Vero Beach flight is the airline's fourth Florida route. Breeze Airlines also announced nonstop routes to Tampa, Fort Myers, Fla. and New Orleans, and a one-stop flight to Los Angeles. Those routes are expected to be up and running by mid-May, the airline said.
In addition to Hartford, the airline has routes out of Providence and Long Island's MacArthur Airport. It also added a single route out of Portland, Maine, last month.
Tickets for the three new routes can be purchased on Breeze's website. According to the website, round-trip flights for all three destinations run almost every day.
Last year, the airline announced ambitious expansion plans in the region and named Bradley as its northeast hub. The airline said the expansion would add 200 jobs to the state and it could receive a state grant of up to $1.26 million if it meets its hiring goals.
