Sample flights

With this Breeze deal, you can fly to a variety of major cities and smaller ones at a significant discount, which is ideal if you’re planning a vacation for the new year or visiting family and friends.

While Breeze advertises its one-way fares in this deal, we’ve highlighted the round-trip options instead:

• Provo Airport (PVU) to Harry Reid International Airport (LAS), starting at $58.
• Bradley International Airport (BDL) to Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport (SRQ), starting at $78.
• Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) to Charleston International Airport (CHS), starting at $88.
• Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR) to Tampa International Airport (TPA), starting at $108.
• Westchester County Airport (HPN) to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), starting at $198.

Some of the discounts in this deal are not available for the entire travel dates period. If there’s a place you’d like to visit, you have to play around with the dates on Breeze’s website to find the best round-trip deal.

For example, a flight from Hartford to Sarasota, Florida, does not have much availability at the $39 one-way sticker price — only the dates Jan. 11, Feb. 1 and Feb. 8 have $39 one-way flights.

If you plan to travel from Hartford to Sarasota from Feb. 1 to Feb. 8, you can reap the full benefits of the Breeze deal since each flight costs only $39.

However, if you plan to travel on any other day, the flights typically cost $49 to $59 one-way.

These fares are for Breeze’s Nice class, which includes additional fees for seat selection and only allows passengers to bring one personal item. Standard seating on this flight ranges from $10 to $15 whereas seats with extra legroom cost $75.
