![]() The seats are very comfortable and on short haul flights there are only two seats in each row on either side of the aisle so no one is stuck with the middle seat. None of the flight attendants on either flight seemed to be monitoring who was supposed to have a carry-on and who wasn’t but as always it’s a risk you’ll have to weigh for yourself. Though there was a decent amount of overhead bins for the passengers to use, the bins themselves aren’t massive and if you have a carry-on that’s pushing the limit size wise, we’d suggest opting for a checked bag. On the way there, the plane was at about half capacity and on the way back it was about 75%. On both legs of our journey (to and from Charleston) we were met with very friendly flight attendants and a pretty quick boarding process. Once the plane arrived the turnaround was lightning fast and our boarding was even quicker. Texts, emails, app notifications, and verbal announcements all came together to make sure we knew of any change. On our flight down to Charleston our plane was delayed and this fact was overcommunicated in the best sense of the word. With only a few flights from any given Breeze location in the day it’s safe to assume that checking in in-person probably won’t be too cumbersome either.īecause Breeze usually only has one gate, it can be easy to miss, so be sure to double check as you’re looking around. If you download the app, it will display the flight status and the boarding pass along with any add-ons you may have, like TSA Precheck. This same route on the legacy carriers are more expensive and more often than not are not nonstop. We flew nonstop to Charleston from Columbus and our tickets came out to $72 roundtrip per person with a personal item, if we both added a full sized carryon we’d each pay an additional $25 each way. There is also a brand new “Nicest” fare class, Breeze’s first class option, which includes the same options as the previous fare class but includes two checked bags and 6% of the base fare added to your BreezePoints account. Breeze does wrap all of these upsell opportunities into their “Nicer” fare class which includes an extra legroom seat, a carryon, one checked bag, a soft drink, a snack, priority boarding, and 4% of the base fare added to your BreezePoints account. They also have a modest pet fee of $75 if you’re planning on bringing a furry friend.įinally, if you want to bring more than a small personal item (like a backpack that fits under the seat) you’ll need to pay $25 for a carryon or $29 for a checked bag (each way) if you book in advance (it costs more if you add those later). There are extra fees for seat selection, including an option for an extra leg room seat (though the normal seats have plenty of space for this 5’11 male). Like on many budget airlines there will be upsell opportunities that will include extra fees. The base fare class is called the “Nice” class. If you’re booking from your phone, the mobile app is very user-friendly as well. On the website, Breeze will prompt you to make an account and will take you through your selections. The booking process is very straightforward. San Francisco nonstop to Charleston for $398 roundtrip in business class.Los Angeles nonstop to Savannah for $198 roundtrip.Akron nonstop to West Palm Beach for $118 roundtrip.Tulsa nonstop to Tampa for $62 roundtrip.New Orleans nonstop to Charleston for $58 roundtrip. ![]() On top of that, all of their current routes are nonstop. They currently operate 77 different routes and fly to 28 airports. Where does Breeze fly?īreeze’s focus is on underserved cities that tend not to be directly connected by other airlines. The company was founded by David Neelemen and a crew of industry executives with their hands in the successes of many other airlines like Air Canada, JetBlue, and United.Ĭurrently, Breeze has 14 aircrafts in their fleet most of which are Embraer 190s and 195s, and one Airbus A220. The company was first founded as Moxy Airways in 2018 but has been operating as Breeze Airways since May 27, 2021. ![]() What’s Breeze Airways?īreeze Airways is another one of the newest low-cost point-to-point airlines to take off in 2021 alongside Avelo Airlines. That's also the case with Breeze Airways, which offers a quality product at lower cost than the legacy carriers covering the same routes. Our whole mission is to help travelers score quality cheap flights and we know that sometimes paying more doesn't mean a better experience. We obviously don't believe that here at Going. ![]() There has always been this idea that if something is cheap there is a little to no quality behind the product.
