Breeze Airways is a low-cost airline that offers point-to-point flights to underserved markets across the United States using a fleet of modern Airbus A220 aircraft. I flew Breeze again recently and enjoyed the experience (you can read the full review here). Travel & Leisure named it as one of the five best US airlines for the third consecutive year in 2024. Breeze now serves 70 cities in 31 states with its latest addition of Key West International Airport (EYW).
Breeze Airways is set to retire the Embraer 195 from scheduled passenger service on April 7. Final flights:
• MX330/331 MSY-RDU-ISP-RDU-MSY
• MX326/327 MSY-JAX-MSY (final)Breeze was the first U.S. passenger airline flying the E195, and potentially the last. pic.twitter.com/jFTFOeNlNK

The airline’s fleet consists of 37 Airbus A220-300 aircraft (with 53 more ordered), 10 Embraer E190, and three Embraer E195 aircraft. I’ve only flown Breeze on Airbus A220-300 aircraft as those are the planes with Ascent Class (Breeze’s First Class). If I wanted to fly on an Embraer E195, I’d have to move fast as the airline plans to stop flying that aircraft type on April 7th.
Its final commercial trip with fly from Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) before being shifted to only serve charter flights. Breeze was the first commercial airline to use the Embraer E195 aircraft, but it’s now shifting to its original plan to fly only Airbus A220-300s.
Anthony’s Take: I love the Airbus A220 aircraft. I’ve never flown Breeze’s Embraer E190 or E195 planes and am fine sticking with the Ascent Class seats on the Airbus A220-300.
