Breeze Airways today announces three new, nonstop routes from the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport (SDF) with service to Hartford (BDL), Los Angeles (LAX) and Pittsburgh (PIT). Flights for the three new destinations will begin in May with the premium leisure airline that aims to provide affordable, direct flights for travelers.
“With today’s announcement, we are adding nonstop service to two new markets from SDF with Pittsburgh and Hartford, along with continuing to offer more options to the West Coast with Los Angeles,” said Dan Mann, Executive Director of the Louisville Regional Airport Authority, which owns and operates SDF. “We appreciate Breeze’s recognition of the strength of our market and expanded presence in Louisville, giving travelers in our region even more options.”
With the addition of Pittsburgh and Hartford, SDF now has service to a record 41 nonstop destinations from Louisville. On average, nearly 200 people travel between Louisville and Pittsburgh each day, and it serves as one of the largest markets for visitors to the Louisville region. Hartford is a key link to New England, a region full of historic sites and outdoor recreation adventures. Conveniently located between Boston and New York City, Hartford area’s population of more than three million makes it the largest population center in the eastern U.S. that SDF did not serve nonstop.
“This is a huge win for Louisville,” said Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg. “Anytime our airport adds non-stop flights to major cities, it’s an indicator of our economic momentum because it shows there is a demand for these routes, especially from business travelers. Non-stop flights are also a selling point for businesses looking to set up operations here.”
Beginning today, Louisville travelers can book the summer seasonal flights to:
“Breeze continues to grow by adding nonstop routes that deliver real value to our Guests,” said David Neeleman, Founder and CEO of Breeze Airways. “Louisville’s new service to Pittsburgh, Hartford and Los Angeles reflects that progress and our commitment to the community.”
