Breeze Airways Adds 4 New Las Vegas Routes for Spring 2026 — $39 Launch Fares; Orange County Flights Ramp To Daily In April

Low‑cost carrier Breeze Airways is growing again in the West, unveiling four new routes from Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) with introductory fares from $39 one‑way and first departures scheduled for March and April 2026. The move adds links to Orange County (SNA), Arcata/Eureka (ACV), Twin Falls (TWF) and Lincoln (LNK), using the airline’s Airbus A220-300 fleet. ^[1]

Start dates & frequencies (LAS):
• Orange County (SNA) — launches Mar. 6, 2026 at 3x weekly, grows to 5x weekly Mar. 15, and daily from Apr. 8.
• Twin Falls (TWF) — 2x weekly (Mon/Fri) from Mar. 6, 2026.
• Arcata/Eureka (ACV) — 2x weekly (Wed/Sat) from Mar. 11, 2026.
• Lincoln (LNK) — 2x weekly (Wed/Sat) from Apr. 8, 2026. ^[2]
Launch fares:$39 (LAS–SNA), $49 (LAS–ACV, LAS–TWF) and $79 (LAS–LNK), book by Nov. 10 for travel Mar. 6–May 12. ^[3]
Aircraft:Airbus A220‑300, around 160 seats. ^[4]

Editor’s note on frequency: Some local reports describe LAS–SNA as “daily from March 6.” Current schedule filings show a ramp from 3x weekly to daily by April 8; always check the timetable at purchase. ^[5]

What Breeze is adding — and why it matters for Vegas

Breeze’s newest LAS routes target a mix of short‑haul leisure (Southern California, Northern California coast) and underserved small markets (Idaho’s Magic Valley, Nebraska’s capital). The airline is also marketing “BreezeThru” itineraries (no plane change) from Twin Falls to Orange County via Las Vegas, broadening access to Orange County without a traditional hub connection. ^[6]

The carrier is sweetening the launch with limited‑time fares (through Nov. 10) and spring travel windows that catch shoulder‑season tourism in Las Vegas. For context, LAS handled 58+ million passengers in 2024, and added point‑to‑point options like these tend to stimulate new trips rather than just shift share among incumbents.

One more network note from Breeze

As part of broader schedule adjustments, Breeze has removed three planned Burbank routes (to Eugene, Pasco, Redmond) from its timetable ahead of launch. ^[8]

Today’s global route updates (Nov. 6 roundup)

Beyond Las Vegas, these are the notable network moves airlines (and airports) are highlighting as of today:

Cathay Pacific launches daily Hong Kong–Changsha (CSX) using A321neo, expanding the Cathay Group’s mainland China network to 24 cities this year. ^[9]
Eurowings debuts Berlin–Abu Dhabi (AUH)3x weekly, strengthening Berlin’s long‑haul links to the Gulf; the winter schedule also grows Dubai service. ^[10]
British Airways to withdraw three short‑haul routes from London Heathrow at the end of March 2026 — Riga, Cologne, Stuttgart — while BA CityFlyer suspends London City–Frankfurt. ^[11]
Finnair plans a record 25 weekly flights to Thailand for winter 2026/27, including up to 18 weekly to Bangkok, plus the return of Krabi (2x weekly) and Phuket (5x weekly). ^[12]
Air China files Beijing Capital–Abu Dhabi4x weekly from Jan. 24, 2026 with 787‑9 service, becoming the sole scheduled operator on the city pair. ^[13]

These items are part of a rolling week‑of‑Nov. 3 routes digest updated Nov. 6, 2025, with Breeze’s Las Vegas expansion the headline development. ^[14]

What travelers should know

Book early: Deepest promo pricing is limited and tied to the Nov. 10 purchase deadline for spring travel windows. ^[15]
Check days of week: The new LAS routes are not daily at launch (except LAS–SNA once it ramps in April). Verify operating days before planning weekend trips. ^[16]
Aircraft & onboard: Breeze’s A220‑300 brings a quieter, more fuel‑efficient narrowbody with a roughly 160‑seat layout and the carrier’s tiered “Nice/Nicer/Nicest” product. ^[17]

The takeaway

With four new spokes from Las Vegas, Breeze is doubling down on short‑haul leisure and underserved regional demand in the West just as peak spring travel approaches. The Orange County ramp to daily gives Southern Californians and Las Vegans a high‑frequency, sub‑one‑hour link, while Twin Falls, Arcata/Eureka, and Lincoln gain fresh, non‑hub access to one of the country’s busiest leisure gateways. Pair that with today’s global updates — from Cathay’s mainland China push to Eurowings’ Berlin–Gulf corridor — and it’s clear airlines are tuning networks for high‑yield leisure and VFR traffic headwinds in 2026. ^[18]
