Breeze Airways is bolstering its summer schedule. The Provo, Utah-based ultra-low-cost carrier on Tuesday announced five new routes launching this summer — each of which will touch a warm-weather, leisure destination on the East Coast.

Breeze is adding three new routes to Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) in South Carolina, a popular summer beach destination.

It's also adding a few new options out of Westchester County Airport (HPN) in White Plains, New York, and it's doubling down on its growth out of Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) in North Carolina.

Additionally, Breeze announced on Wednesday added capacity on a couple of new routes and announced the resumption of some summer seasonal flying.

Meanwhile, the addition of West Palm Beach gives Breeze yet another departure out of Raleigh-Durham, from which it will serve more than a dozen destinations by midsummer. Even before unveiling the new PBI route, Breeze's July scheduled seats from RDU will be up 73% over July 2023, Cirium data shows.

Other resumptions and frequency increases

On top of the five new routes Breeze announced Wednesday, it also announced plans to increase the frequency of two new routes launching in May and resume two seasonal summer routes.
