It's a good day to get away for $35 one-way. See what I did there?
This deal comes from the ultra-low-cost carrier Breeze Airways, as U.S. airlines battle to compete with the $35-$39 fares offered by United and JetBlue earlier this week.
This deal is for bookings made Thursday only, so be sure to book fast if you are interested.

Sample flights
This sale includes $35 one-way flights from all 18 Breeze markets in 14 states, including:
- Charleston, South Carolina (CHS).
- New Orleans (MSY).
- Tampa (TPA).

The advertised deal is for one-way fares only, but you could book two tickets separately and stack them to take full advantage of the deal on both legs of the trip, as I have illustrated below.

The $35 fares are for Breeze's "Nice" fare, which only allows passengers one personal carry-on item. You can pay $20 to access the overhead bin or check luggage. If you want a particular seat, you'll have to pay for standard seating, which starts at $10 for seats in the back of the plane and goes up to $15 for seats closer to the front of the cabin. Alternatively, you can pay $25 or $30 for 10 additional inches of legroom.
