Richmond, VA (February 14, 2023) – Breeze Airways, the newest, nicest low-fare airline, is adding two new destinations from Richmond, both starting in May, including to New York’s Long Island-Islip, NY and Cincinnati, OH. The new flights are summer seasonal routes through September 5 and are now on sale at introductory fares, from just $39* one way. Breeze now offers 143 nonstop routes between 35 cities in 21 states nationally.

“Here we grow again,” said Tom Doxey, Breeze Airways’ President. “We always look for routes that people are traveling today but can’t get there nonstop. Now Guests flying from Richmond can get to New York and Cincinnati twice as fast, for about half the price!”

• Cincinnati, OH (Mon and Fri, starting May 19 through September 5, Nice from $39* one way; Nicer from $79*).

In addition, Breeze has seven existing routes on sale for travel through March, also starting at $39* one way from RIC:

• Charleston, SC (from $39** for travel thru 3/7, or from $45*** from 3/22-31);

“We are excited at the partnership with Breeze and their continued growth and expansion in region”, said Perry J. Miller, Richmond International Airport’s President & Chief Executive Officer.
