Looking to burn the rest of your paid time off? Or take the family on one last vacation for the year? How about planning your holiday travels for 2023?

While the leaves will soon change color and temperatures begin to dip, airlines at Pittsburgh International Airport are gearing up for leisure travelers this fall by adding flights to popular sun destinations.

Breeze continues PIT expansion

Breeze Airways is one of PIT’s fastest growing airlines, with 13 destinations now served nonstop since launching service in 2021. Three of those cities are scheduled to launch from PIT this fall.

Starting Sept. 8, Breeze will offer nonstop service between PIT and Los Angeles International Airport, with flights operating on Mondays and Fridays on Airbus A220 aircraft. Breeze, which first began West Coast service in March with Orange County, becomes the second carrier to offer nonstop service to LAX, joining Spirit Airlines’ daily flights on the route.

Additionally, Breeze will begin nonstop flights to popular destinations in Florida, starting with Tampa on Oct. 5 and Fort Myers on Nov. 15. The airline will operate flights to Tampa on Thursdays and Sundays while Fort Myers will be served seasonally on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Breeze joins existing service by Southwest Airlines and Spirit on both routes.
