Flying Breeze Airways - America’s “Nicest” Airline
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 сен 2024
- My last trip of summer 2021 consisted of 4 flights, all aboard "ultra-low cost" & "low-cost" carriers...the first being America's (now) newest airline: Breeze Airways! Previously, I had flown their E195 for the first ever service back in May, but I really wanted to see how their other Embraer aircraft faired out with a more normal experience, and today I did just that. Wow was I impressed. As I say in the video, it's always super cool flying a brand new airline and/or airplane model cause you really don't know what to expect. Breeze definitely has their act together in my opinion and perfectly stand out from the rest of the pack with their friendliness and "point to point" business model. I really wish them all the best and certainly recommend flying them. Hope y'all enjoy!

I just flew Breeze out of Alabama to Las Vegas on the A220 model plane last week. They had literally taken possession of that plane a week and a half before I flew on it. It was very clean and nice features that I’ve not seen provided on other airliners. The service was impeccable & planes were always on time, no delays. In this economy, the fact that I can fly round trip to Vegas and back over the weekend, in their “first class” for under $400 is awesome!
Thank you for this.. I will be flying out to Vegas in 2 months also from Bama..
I flew Breeze MSY-CHS two weeks ago. I was a non-rev, as I work for another carrier, so i can't guarantee the experience would be EXACTLY the same for a revenue customer... But I found them to be great. From a revenue passenger standpoint, they were selling buy-on-board items and had a menu in the seatback pocket. They had wifi in the sense that you could connect to inflight entertainment (An OK selection at a glance, but I had already downloaded some stuff I wanted to watch), but no internet connectivity yet. From a non-rev standpoint, I liked that, due to the loads, I got a seat assignment when I checked in online (which was 24 hours prior) and they put me in a "Nicer" seat. A carrier with lots of promise that I think, despite being branded a ULCC, leans Southwest more than Spirit or Frontier.
thanks flying CHS-MYS in May for my birthday and I’m excited!
Thank you for doing this review. My Fiancée and I are flying CHS-LAS for our honeymoon in December and were growing concerned about their performance based on other people's reviews. You, thankfully, have raised our spirits and we look forward to traveling with them this winter. Thank you for providing us the most in depth and accurate review of these guys. You've earned yourself a new subscriber
I flew Breeze just a couple weeks ago to Florida and let me tell, it wasn't bad. I mean it was smooth and honestly, Its my favorite airline now
Breeze looks like a pretty good airline. I love their livery.
Yeah, they are different for sure.
Me too. The livery is so different and cool
you mean Nice
@@nolank.3982 Right.
Im a Flight Attendant For them
I’ve flown on JetBlue’s 190 from FLL-JAX and one thing I did appreciate was the IFEs , it may have been buffering a bit but it did work perfectly for the most part
There E190's Are There Smallest and Oldest Planes They Will Be Exiting JetBlue's Fleet In 2026. There A220's Ife and Everything Else Are Much Nicer and Are Taking Over Their Fleet!
Your videos are some of my favorite on RUclips right now. Nice work jazzguy!
I’m flying breeze in 2 days, I know we have red seats, but wish they had screens in the back of the seats.
Finally a KSTS person, it’s an amazing little airport, perfect for plane spotting!
Breeze is a great airline the cabin is great since all of the seats have chargers. The only complaint is have is the landing. The landing at my vacation spot was really hard and I think the plane bounced. The one at home however was a little better but that is the only complaint I have
I remember being at TPA during Breezes first flight. I wasn't on it unfortunately, but all the staff seems so nice, they all had a smile on their face, (noticeable all through their masks) and no passenger that I saw was sad tired or anything like that. customer service goes a long way.
The last video you flew Southwest and wore a Breeze Airline mask. This video you flew between Pittsburgh and Charleston and wore a Santa Rosa California airport mask. Chris, you are such a rebel!.....LOL 😃
Omg I just saw my old office by Gate A4 at CHS on your video! 😂 I used to do Operations, Load Planning, and Payload Optimization! So cool!
This the first time I’ve seen something about breeze. Good job. Not a bad flight
Great video!
Thank you for showing takeoffs and landings in real time! Also enjoyed the Milk Run as well as Barrow Alaska.
N9H-SOL was a really cool find. An A340 is really neat!
Well Breeze was founded by David Neeleman wich already created other 4 air companies MorrisAir, WestJet, JetBlue, and Azul Linhas Aéreas, according to Skytrax 2021 they occupy the 53º,32º, 47º, respectively (MorrisAir does not exist anymore), so experience and business model are already there, Azul is an excellent hit by him in Brazil always competing within the top spot with Latam currently 45º, Breeze is very similar to Azul, I guess it's a rebranded Azul for nom Latin countries (Azul logo is Brazil map).
Moriss merge with southwest
So I worked for breeze as a ramp agent in Tampa , I can tell you the N126 had the bathroom leak for a while and it shouldn’t had caused a delay
Great Breeze review! I would love to fly on them, if they ever come to Denver.
Too big United southwest will take over (in my opinion only when they are bigger
I flew breeze from Tampa to Richmond recently, in the new Nicest seat. I got a complimentary Granola bar and Bottle of water. I was in the new A220, so there was no Wi-Fi yet, but you were able to purchase additional snacks if you wanted to
Absolutely fantastic trip report Chris!😸
Hey Life’s Ups and Downs!
I Am Absolutely Most Definitely Thinking About Traveling With Breeze Airline’s Whenever I Do Go On Vacation Trip’s With My Friend’s In The Future And I Also Absolutely Wish That Breeze Airlines Had Flight’s To And From Houston Texas To Other Parts Of The United States And Canada And Mexico And The Caribbean And Central America As Well Too Now!!! And Also Much Love To All Of Y’all From Houston Texas Too!!!
I feel like Breeze is what Spirit wanted to be
Wow, the Macaw Sharp thirst comments landed early today! LOL
- Red
Sure did
I really like your videos and your narration
Breeze was actually founded by the father of JetBlue!
Appreciate seeing Qatar and hifly again. Man how lucky to see them leaving swear i don't fly much but I seem to get lucky like that when leaving pit.
Flying next week, super excited to see how it goes!!
Breeze has nice employees and seems to be the same as other ultra lost cost carriers, but I’ve had some real issues with them delaying flights. That was a couple years ago and don’t know if anything’s changed
I believe that breeze airways begun their service in San Francisco recently this year. I haven’t checked it out but would like to at some point. Love your content. Been following your vid’s for 2years
One flight I was on, my window seat was next to the most unfriendly looking dude ever. The moment that the boarding ended, he got up and sat somewhere else and I had the row to myself :) it was nice.
I enjoyed it I am willing to fly them i hope they add DFW-LAX route
utz chips are one of the best made in pa i ived there for 17 yrs
Qatar Airways at Pittsburgh?
It's one of their cargo only flights. They started the service to PIT back in 2017.
I enjoyed this video as always. There is one suggestion I have for your future videos. Before you switched formats, you used to have intro music that I had a blast listening to (a rock-style tune with the violin flipping up and down). Do you think you can bring that intro music back when you switch your format to on-camera vlogs? I strongly prefer your new format overall, but I still miss the intro music you used to use. Perhaps your future intro can consist of that music with a montage of you performing your hobbies.
DearJazzguy thank you for such a good video...In many ways, you've become some sort of "coach" and I am grateful. If you are ever back in Washington DC, I would very much like a chance to shake hands and meet personally... May G_d bless you and your family & friends...You are a great guy...Take care!
At 9:03. He was probably hoping you'd do that. 🤣
Hopefully we get a new legacy airline in the future
PIT is comically huge, also kinda looks like a mall from the mid 90s
It used to be a hub for USAir.
i just flew breeze non-stop from Hartford CT. to Las Vegas on one of the A320 or A300.
The flight to Vegas was a first flight of the day, so the plane was clean.
The plane boarded on time, and take off was a few mintes early.
I had the "nicest" package for both flights. Seat 1A to, seat 2A retrning.
The flight to arrived abot 30 mintes early.
The retrning flight had some sort of ndisclosed isse, which made s take off abot 10 mintes late.
The retrning flight was also the last flight of the day, so the plane was dirty, crumbs in every nook and cranny.
the snacks for "nicest" were free, but they did have cashless payment for the other seats to prchase snacks.
No wi-fi yet, bt they stated they are adding it to every plane by end of 2024. (take notice, Southwest!)
Overall, wold I fly them again?
yes, bt only with the "nicest" package.
To me, the extra cost (and leg room) makes it worth it.
Im doing that same flight in july! Never heard of breeze til just recently and theres no other non stop flights nearby so i think driving hour and half to hartford for non stop ans cheaper flights is worth it!
It’s buy on board now I flew them in April from Huntsville to Tampa.
Will you be able to visit Thunder Bay Ontario sometime
Sweet Jams
I’m flying to CHS from BNA researching before I book with breeze
I also would have moved seats, away from a guy. Nice plane, attractive & appropriate color interior scheme
I wish Breeze Airways the best of luck!
There's another video about this airline that was released a few days before yours, it seems like that flight only had a pitiful buy on board menu with prices somewhere between convenience store and hotel minibar. I always brought my own snacks anyways lol so this is the one newer airline that goes to my airport, so I also hope they succeed. :)
Flew Breeze from Hartford, CT to Vero Beach, FL. You need to pay for all snacks and drinks. No more water bottles. You will get a cup of free water when you are asked.
I hope you uploading your next video!
Min 12:45 what type of AIr craft was that?
4 engines? Looks like a 707 but I doubt it
Can some one tell me please
I have a flight in mid September that leaves from their newest location from pvu so I will have to leave to update on the condition and how they operate from a new airport
The closes airport to me that has breeze is 15 hours but the closes Airport that has Avelo is only 15 minutes away can’t wait to fly them
Snacks and drinks on Breeze. Nice seats are buy on board. Nicer seats free snack. Water is free, other drinks are available for purchase. Nicest seats for flights under 4 hours free snack and drinks are available for purchase. Nicest seats over 4 hours everything is free including upgraded snack and alcohol. YMMV as sometimes they hand out snacks in all classes.
I've never seen this airline in my area. I hope to fly it sometime.
very cool;
Nice airline
Looks like breeze !!!
Surprised David Neeleman did not put in TV's in his planes, like he did with JetBlue
I work for pit at alaska csa I think I saw you that day but wasn’t sure
Too bad Breeze dropped San Antonio... low load factors, but hope to fly with them soon.
the a220's are nice
Qatar flies into Pittsburgh? That's like Brit Airways flying into Phoenix. Why? Are there that many Pennsylvanians wanting to go to Doha? Always good videos.
It’s for cargo, not passengers, and it’s partially subsidized as of right now. BA does fly into PIT, though, with nonstop service to LHR.
What was up with that all white A340? Charter?
who still flies the a340? fly malta i think?
Not sure i would have called Aha! new, but im not really surprised. If only Expressjet would have realized that basing a route network on the E145 would make it extremely difficult to make money.....oh wait
Damn how far are you from the airport
Nice Mask!!
OK south west airlines please get the broken stuff fix
Hopefully Breeze Airways flies to Omaha someday
What airlines would you recommend (first-time fliers) from either PIT or Dulles to LAS? Looking for help on most reliable airline, etc.
I can only vouch for Alaska and Southwest but all of my flights with them (not many, admittedly) went smoothly.
Does Breeze serve BWI?
They do not yet unfortunately
they do not give free stuff anymore i just flew maybe a week ago
This must have been just prior to your move out west
never heard of it, thanks.
Colors are sexy for breeze
Hope they add DFW!
rip Aha
Have you flown on Sun Country Airlines? If not, I can provide you one of my buddy pases to do so!
Gotta be honest the E195 seats were better
Neeleman rulez
Why don’t u contact breezes and ask them about the snacks
live in pensylvainya
They seem nice for a low cost carrier. But Alaska staff are WAY nicer
Wait AHA Is bankrupt?!
You really need to get on Avelo! It's most definitely NOT Breeze!
Unfortunately this could change for the worst if they were to merge with another airline company.
With in the first three minutes of this video the boarding pass scanners were down, and the bathroom is broken. No thanks to this airline for me.
I meet a guy who knows the airlines founder
what has happenned to you ?????
AVOID this airline if you need to be somewhere. I scheduled my flight from Orange County CA to Orlando FL more than a month in advance for a cruise ship vacation. Then today, a few weeks before the trip, I get an email saying that "we made a change to your flight" and now it's giving me a bad schedule when the cruise ship is at sea. I had to cancel for a refund. But the worst part of it is that with my super busy work schedule, this is wasting my time to research and re-book with another airline! I knew that "low budget" airlines are nothing but trouble, but I thought I would give Breeze a chance because I could get their "nicest" seat which is a pretend 1st class. I have never before had an airline change the booking on me like this without some unexpected weather or air traffic control event. Breeze is UNRELIABLE I am learning from other reviews. I learned my lesson again to avoid the stupid budget airlines.
I will not fly on a airline that doest have broken replacement aircraft… that is a good way to die… or bad way.
Hairy leg
I dont care for passengers that complain about opening the blind cause they cant look at their programs very frustrating
That I ain’t very nice of u to move it is rude u should be ashamed of yourself for moving to another seat
Ya know...when I wrote that seat part in the script, I thought to myself "there's probably gonna be some numbnut criticizing me for moving"...and behold thanks for proving me right 👏
My first time flying breeze Airways today send me your cell phone to me
Yikes. AHA lasted about 5 minutes
RIP 💀
I think we all knew AHA wasn't going to last.
Never heard of them till few weeks ago
I work for a contractor that serviced AHA, (We work with about 4 other airline’s at my station) we all made bets on how long it would take for them to file for bankruptcy and sure enough I walk in to the operations center one day and all that was left of AHA was a piece of paper saying they went bankrupt. They didn’t even set up a number you could call, you could only dispute it with your bank. All equipment that they gave us was immediately shipped away within 48hrs to sell off I guess. Overall it’s one of the least favorite airlines I’ve been a part of servicing😂
@@jay77productions …sounds professional 😂 damn! So it was as obvious to you guys as it was in jazzguys video about them on day 1?? Lmao
"And turns out, the scanners at the gate were broken". The same thing happened to some passengers in either Boston or STL airport on a Southwest flight I took in April (of this year) and they had to have paper ones printed. I usually go paper boarding pass after checking in at the kiosk in the airports anyways just in case something like this happens; I don't think I ever have used an online check in/mobile boarding pass yet. I should do that next time.
I haven't flown Breeze recently/yet at all, but I'll let you know! They added a few more flights from my home airport a while back and I've always wanted to try them since last year but never had the time or chance.
Also - aw, looks like I won't get to fly Aha anymore. Oh well. More room for Breeze and Avelo I guess!
I took a flight on breeze in 2024 three months ago. They charged for the snacks, and water, but the coffee was free. I didn't buy the snacks because there a bit price. Also there's no Wifi on the plane, but that will change whenever they upgrade. The flight was very smooth with very little turbulence. I'm taking breeze again in September 2024.
Hey! Just wanted to thank you for your videos. I have had a huge fear of flying, but watching your videos made me want to try it because you make it seem so casual and, daresay, exciting and even fun. You also often fly out of my hometown airport, PIT, so your tours of the airport really helped prep me. I ended up booking a flight from PIT to CHS on Breeze, and I ended up watching this particular video like 20 times because I found it so relaxing. The flights were a success!! I am not a huge fan of the feeling of ascent, and we had "moderate turbulence" on the way home, but I survived and it was absolutely fine. I feel like I can actually explore the world now and not have to drive a million hours for a place that would be a short flight instead. So, THANK YOU for being so relaxing to watch, and for having such great videos. ❤
