(Pittsburgh, PA) Breeze Airways is adding three new nonstop routes from Pittsburgh International Airport. 

The airline will offer service to Vero Beach; Punta Cana; and Cancún. Flights will operate three times a week — Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays — on a seasonal basis. 

Service to Vero Beach is scheduled to begin Oct. 1, while the international routes to Punta Cana and Cancún are set to launch Jan. 7. Airport officials said the Punta Cana route marks Breeze’s first international service from Pittsburgh. 

In a statement, founder and CEO David Neeleman said the airline is “thrilled” with its growth in the region and expansion into international destinations. 

With the additions, Breeze will offer 18 nonstop destinations from Pittsburgh, second only to Southwest Airlines at the airport.
