Announcing two additional Caribbean routes from Tampa, Breeze continues rapidly expanding its plans for Caribbean and Latin American service at TPA
On 5 May, Tampa International Airport and airline partner Breeze Airways announced new, nonstop flights from TPA to Cyril E. King Airport (STT) in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Mexico's Cancun International Airport (CUN). The flights to STT will mark the first-ever nonstop service between TPA and St. Thomas, and the route to Cancun will become Breeze's first destination in Mexico from TPA.
Both routes are scheduled to operate twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Service to STT is scheduled to begin on 16 December, followed by Cancun on 19 December.
With the addition of these new routes, Breeze continues to grow its presence at America's Favorite Airport, now offering 37 nonstop destinations from TPA, including SIX to the Caribbean and Latin America starting later this year. Those include:
- Nassau (starting 11 June)
- San Jose, Costa Rica (starting 3 October)
- Punta Cana (starting 2 July)
- St. Thomas (16 December)
- Cancun (19 December)
- Montego Bay (starting 19 December)
"These two new routes mark exciting milestones for Tampa International Airport: Our first-ever flights to St. Thomas and Breeze Airways’ first-ever service to Mexico from TPA,” said TPA CEO Michael Stephens. “Both destinations are in high demand among Tampa Bay travelers, and the timing couldn’t be better as we look ahead to this year's busy holiday travel season. We can’t wait to celebrate the launch of these routes in December.”
“With these new routes, Tampa will now offer service to all of our international destinations and be the first to experience our new service to the beautiful U.S. Virgin Islands,” said David Neeleman, Breeze Airways’ founder and CEO. “We know our guests will love these destinations and we look forward to launch this winter.”
