SYRACUSE — Breeze Airways this fall will begin year-round, nonstop flights from Syracuse Hancock International Airport (SYR) to Tampa International Airport (TPA).
It’ll be weekly service starting Nov. 19, the Syracuse Regional Airport Authority (SRAA) announced Aug. 10.
“We are excited to see Breeze Airways expand their SYR footprint,” Jason Terreri, executive director of SRAA, said. “Adding Tampa to their list of destinations served by nonstop flights from Syracuse further affirms their commitment to Upstate New York travelers.”
Breeze will serve this route using new Airbus A220 airplanes, which the airline also uses on its Las Vegas and Charleston nonstop routes from Syracuse.
“Breeze always seeks to connect cities which have previously had no nonstop service,” Tom Doxey, president of Breeze Airways, said. “We’re really excited to announce a new nonstop flight from SYR to Tampa to connect these two fantastic destinations.”
This announcement further increases the options for upstate New York travelers seeking nonstop flights from Syracuse to the state of Florida. Of the 29 nonstop destinations available from Syracuse, nine are to Florida, the SRAA said.
