Breeze, initiated by JetBlue CEO and aviation entrepreneur David Neeleman, began service primarily to eastern and southeastern U.S. This nearly doubles the Breeze network to 77 routes, a massive expansion for the start-up that launched last May. Describing itself as the “Seriously Nice” airline, Breeze Airways announced that it plans to add 35 routes this spring and summer from 10 new cities, coast-to-coast. We did go into the trip with caution based on reviews of the airline.Budget travel to underserved United States markets just got a little easier. Now that we are paying for a toddler, the prices of Breeze paired with a non-stop to our home airport were a no-brainer. In general I would build in a little flexibility for any changes. Keep in mind summer travel hasn’t been smooth for many people, regardless of what airline you fly. They made up a lot of time in the air and they also de-planed/boarded quite fast. We had a slight delay leaving Jacksonville, but that was due to the fuel truck at the airport, and we did have an hour delay returning. I was nervous leading up to the flight based on reviews and the fact that they cancelled our route the whole month before. Our experience with Breeze AirwaysĪ few things to note about our personal experience: Our flight time changed for both our flights, and although I am not sure the reason, I reached out to Breezeway to confirm that although times shifted, everything was still all set. I contacted them twice, and only the second time was the response a little slow – although both times they were helpful. Their cancellation policy can be found here.īreeze does not have a call center, but you can text, Facebook message or email.When cancelling within 24 hours for a reservation booked 7 days in advance, you are eligible for a full refund to original payment.If you cancel before 15 minutes of departing, you can get a full refund (in points) that need to be used within 24 months.On our plane, they do not have WIFI to purchase (if you want to do work on the air or surf the internet), so keep that in mind. Free WIFI entertainment! Although I mentioned “no-frills”, I was surprised that they had free tv and movies on board.They offer a complimentary water cup on the plane but everything else (snacks, soft drinks etc.) you need to pay for.Families and active-duty military board first before anyone else.Strollers and carseats can be gate checked, like most airlines.Active duty military get 2 checked bags and one carry-on for free which is amazing! The military bag allowance is explained here.This will be the most affordable and stress-free way to have your bags when you check in for your flight. Pay for your luggage while booking your ticket if you know you want to bring a carry-on or checked bag.One personal item is allowed – a small purse or bag that fits under the seat.Online check-in closes 45 minutes before the flight. Receive your boarding pass electronically – when checking-in at the airport, they charge you $3 to print your boarding pass (unless you are required to check-in at the airport).The plane felt pretty spacious to us, and not too cramped. My husband is 6’1″ and he felt the leg room in normal seating was similar to other airlines, for reference. They have a section for extra leg room and some airlines offer first class. You can pay to reserve your seat when booking, or a seat will be randomly selected for you.A few tips and things to note to make your experience hopefully go smoother when flying Breeze Airways: Reservations and Checking-in It is important to note that it is a budget airline, so go into your flight knowing that it is “frills-free” flying typically with these type of airlines and you will pay for things like seat selection.
