Breeze Airways, a low-cost carrier based in Salt Lake City, is expanding its operations in North Carolina. The airline announced the launch of nonstop service from Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO), which serves the Greensboro and Winston-Salem area. This addition marks Breeze’s 69th destination.
Starting June 6, Breeze will operate two nonstop routes from Greensboro: to Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Hartford’s Bradley International Airport (BDL). Both routes will offer two weekly round-trip flights on Mondays and Fridays, with the Hartford route being seasonal for the summer months.
Lukas Johnson, Breeze’s chief commercial officer, stated, “We continue to see massive growth in the Mid-Atlantic region and are excited to welcome Piedmont Triad International Airport (GSO) to our growing list of cities that Breeze serves in the region.”
The introduction of these routes expands Breeze’s presence in central North Carolina, complementing its existing services at Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU). According to data from aviation analytics firm Cirium, Breeze plans to increase its total seats flown out of RDU by 123% during the first half of 2025 compared to last year.
With this expansion, GSO will have five commercial airlines serving it. Currently, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and Allegiant Air operate at the airport. Although Allegiant flies nonstop from GSO to Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB), Breeze will not face direct competition on its new routes.
In addition to Greensboro’s new service, Breeze is also increasing its Orlando flights. Starting June 4, it will double its twice-weekly service between MCO and Portland International Jetport (PWM) in Maine. Flights will now run four times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Additionally, starting June 6, flights between MCO and Lancaster Airport (LNS) in Pennsylvania will operate on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
