San Bernardino International Airport (SBD) continues to populate its presence on the U.S. route map with Breeze Airways’ announcement today of new nonstop flights to Las Vegas, NV, and one-stop, same-plane service to Hartford, CT, beginning February 16, 2023, with roundtrip flights each Thursday and Sunday.
Breeze’s announcement comes less than three months since the carrier launched first-ever scheduled passenger service from SBD. The new flights to Las Vegas and Hartford on Airbus A220 aircraft—with three seating configurations that include Nice, Nicer, and Nicest class—joins current nonstop flights to San Francisco, which continue on to Provo, UT, on the same airplane.
“Our Inland Empire communities need more travel options, and Breeze Airways has delivered once again, with new flights to Las Vegas and Hartford, Connecticut,” said Frank J. Navarro, SBD’s Commission President and Mayor of the City of Colton. “We thank Breeze for delivering these exciting new destinations—just three months since launching initial service from San Bernardino International Airport. With the addition of these new flights, our residents can now travel to Las Vegas, Hartford, San Francisco, and Provo, Utah, from their local airport.”
“We always look forward to providing more convenient and affordable service for our San Bernardino Guests,” said Tom Doxey, Breeze Airways’ President. “This new route will give everyone a faster, more convenient way from the Inland Empire to the entertainment capital of the world—and onto Hartford and the northeast.”
Breeze, an airline founded by aviation entrepreneur and JetBlue founder David Neeleman in 2021, focuses on connecting travelers in underserved cities with air service to the U.S. destinations they want to visit most, through efficient and affordable flights.
“Breeze has made an important impact in our community as residents have embraced affordable fares and exciting destinations,” said SBD CEO Michael Burrows. “San Bernardino International Airport continues to elevate its presence in the Southern California region and on the U.S. route map as we now offer coast-to-coast service. We thank our community and the Breeze team for their continued support and success.”
“Our community has embraced the ease of traveling through San Bernardino International Airport and flying on Breeze to San Francisco and Provo,” said Director of Aviation Mark Gibbs. “We heard our customers seeking more destinations and Breeze is delivering with new flights to Las Vegas and Hartford. Along with these new destinations, SBD’s onsite parking just footsteps from the terminal is only $5.00 per day.”
