Breeze Airways Expands Aggressively Using A220s to Profit on Low-Demand US Routes
Launching 19 new and returning routes in just 72 hours would be an ambitious move for any airline. Yet for Breeze Airways , the expansion is less solely about adding destinations and more about validating a business model that many once questioned. Between July 1 and July 3, the airline expanded its network with routes connecting smaller US cities, pushing its July schedule to approximately 266 daily departures, about 44% more than in the same month a year earlier. Underpinning that growth is CEO David Neeleman's belief that Breeze can profitably serve markets generating as few as 10 passengers per day each way (PPPD).
