Breeze Airways is a U.S.-based ultra-low-cost carrier founded in 2021 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, operating point-to-point routes across underserved markets in the United States. The airline focuses on leisure and budget-conscious travelers, offering a no-frills business model with basic economy seating and optional ancillary services such as carry-on baggage fees and seat selection. Breeze Airways operates primarily from secondary and tertiary airports, serving routes that larger carriers have largely abandoned, and has established a frequent flyer program called Breeze Airways Rewards. As a startup ultra-low-cost carrier, the airline competes directly with other budget carriers by emphasizing low fares and operational efficiency while gradually expanding its network across the country. The airline is backed by Directional Aviation Capital and other investors, positioning itself as an alternative to both legacy carriers and established low-cost competitors.
