Jun. 27—One of the newest airlines operating out of Pittsburgh International Airport plans to add flights to Tampa early this fall.
Breeze Airways, which launched service in Pittsburgh in July 2021, announced that it will begin offering nonstop flights between Pittsburgh and Tampa International on Oct. 5. Round-trip flights will be offered on Thursdays and Sundays, with one-way fares starting at $59.
"We have seen amazing demand in Pittsburgh as we continue to expand and grow at Pittsburgh International Airport," said Breeze Airways President Tom Doxey.
"This new route to Tampa will offer our guests in Pennsylvania a 12th nonstop destination in just two years of service," he said.
In May, the low-cost airline announced that it was adding nonstop service to Los Angeles International Airport starting in September. In March, the carrier added a seasonal route to Orange County, Calif.
Bryan Dietz, the company's senior vice president for air service and commercial development, said the further expansion "highlights our market's strong desire for more nonstop options to destinations in Florida."
Seasonal service also has resumed for flights to Norfolk, Va.; Raleigh-Durham, N.C.; Long Island-Islip, N.Y.; Jacksonville, Fla.; and Portland, Maine.
The airline also offers nonstop service to Charleston, S.C.; Hartford, Conn.; New Orleans; and Providence, R.I.
A one-stop flight with no plane change is also available to Provo-Salt Lake City, Utah.
