Breeze Airways adds Myrtle Beach and Ohio nonstop routes this summer
breeze airways is enlarging its summer schedule with new routes from Myrtle Beach and multiple nonstop flights from Ohio airports, with several services set to begin in early July. The additions change seasonal travel options across the Northeast, Southeast and Mid-Atlantic as booking windows open and frequencies shift.
Breeze Airways expands Myrtle Beach service
The airline announced new service from Myrtle Beach to two northeastern destinations: nonstop flights to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and one-stop BreezeThru service to Portland, Maine. Nonstop service to Pittsburgh will operate on Mondays and Fridays starting July 3. The Portland connection will begin as one-stop, no-change-of-plane BreezeThru service starting July 2. Company leadership framed the moves as responding to local population growth and demand for more affordable, convenient travel options.
New nonstop flights from Ohio airports
Several new nonstop routes will be added at two Ohio-area airports. Beginning July 3, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport will see seasonal direct flights to Greenville-Spartanburg, South Carolina, and to Portland, Maine; those Cincinnati services will run on Mondays and Fridays. One-way fares for the Cincinnati flights were announced with Portland starting at $79 and Greenville-Spartanburg starting at $49 (prices presented as published).
From Columbus' John Glenn International Airport, two new nonstop routes will begin in July. Service to Savannah, Georgia, will operate on Wednesdays and Saturdays starting July 1, while nonstop flights to Tampa, Florida, will run on Mondays and Fridays starting July 3. Separately, an existing route to Portland will be expanded to four times weekly — Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays — beginning July 1.
The carrier also added service to additional cities elsewhere in its network, including Birmingham, Alabama, and Tallahassee, Florida, alongside more than a dozen other nonstop additions announced for the summer schedule.
Booking, schedules and what to expect
Myrtle Beach travelers can book the new flight expansions starting the Tuesday immediately following the announcement, and multiple routes across the network have start dates clustered in the first days of July. With seasonal schedules firing up July 1–3, travelers will see new direct options to destinations in the Northeast and Southeast as the summer travel period begins. breeze airways emphasized that the Portland expansion will become the farthest northeast destination served from Myrtle Beach, while other frequency increases will broaden connectivity from Ohio airports.
- Key takeaways: new Myrtle Beach routes to Pittsburgh (nonstop) and Portland (one-stop BreezeThru); Ohio airports gain Cincinnati and Columbus nonstops; several routes begin July 1–3.
Forward look: the immediately available booking window and the scheduled early-July launch dates are the primary observable indicators to watch. If demand tracks seasonal patterns once flights begin, the announced frequency increases — notably Portland to four weekly departures from Columbus — will be the clearest near-term signal of market uptake. Details about load factors, further frequency changes or additional route extensions were not disclosed and remain unclear at this time.
