Breeze Airways to launch nonstop Memphis service to Raleigh-Durham and Tampa in May

MEMPHIS, TENN. (February 5, 2025) – Breeze Airways has announced it will launch nonstop service between Memphis International Airport (MEM) and two destinations, Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) and Tampa International Airport (TPA), in May. TPA service will launch on May 7 and RDU service will launch May 9. Tickets are now on sale at www.flybreeze.com.

Headquartered in Cottonwood Heights, Utah, Breeze will be the tenth airline serving MEM. The airline will operate a 137-seat Airbus A220 aircraft for the flights. Each service will operate two times weekly: Monday/Friday for MEM-RDU and Wednesday/Saturday for MEM-TPA.

RDU is currently MEM’s top unserved destination.

“We’re excited to bring our premium low-cost service to Memphis and know the community will enjoy the experience they have on Breeze,” said David Neeleman, Breeze Airways’ founder and CEO. “Memphis is a perfect fit for Breeze’s business model of connecting unserved and underserved secondary markets, including Raleigh-Durham, Tampa, and Providence, and we’re pleased to bring convenient, direct flights to the community this spring.”

“The launch of Breeze Airways service at MEM is a tremendous development for Memphis passengers, as RDU was our top unserved destination,” said Michael Keeney, Chairman of the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority Board of Commissioners. “In addition, the Tampa service provides more choices for passengers looking to travel to this popular Florida destination. We expect that our passengers will embrace Breeze and the new routes they are offering.”
