Breeze Airways is gearing up to launch its first international flights in early 2026, marking a significant milestone for the U.S.-based low-cost airline. The expansion will connect key U.S. cities to popular Caribbean destinations, offering fares starting as low as $99 one-way. Destinations include Cancun in Mexico, Montego Bay in Jamaica, and Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic, catering to leisure and business travelers seeking affordable tropical getaways.
The route network includes seasonal Saturday service from Norfolk, Virginia, Charleston, South Carolina, New Orleans, Louisiana, and Providence, Rhode Island, to Cancun. From Raleigh-Durham International Airport in North Carolina, Breeze will offer twice-weekly flights to Montego Bay and Punta Cana starting in March 2026. Tampa, Florida, will also have twice-weekly service to Montego Bay starting February 2026. These new international routes mark Breeze’s first move outside the United States since launching in 2021 and position the airline as a key player offering budget-friendly travel with Airbus A220 jets, which include premium seating options.
