Breeze is sounding more shaky with each passing day; the moment I saw their route structure, I gave them near zero chance of survival.

But in order for breeze to capitalize on that potential, they will need pilots, I Just don’t see how they’re going to manage their hiring needs. Unless a couple regionals fold and all of a sudden you have 100’s on the street. Maybe that’s their strategy 🤔
1) Not enough frequency. Breeze doesn't even offer daily frequency, much less multiple flights daily.
2) People can just drive to larger cities and have many more route options.
3) Breeze airfares are NOT ULCC fares.

I found $83M + $10M + $200M.
Any idea how much they've burned through so far?.

Avelo only needs to open just one SFL base (from TPA to MIA) before May 4th and it will kill Fabreeze air freshener airline. so now Fabreeze is gonna be flying Ejet Regional routes..... jajajajajjaj. a $40M dollars airplane to fly from TPA to CHS, CAK, HSV, SDF, etc..... so no more Europe or Brazil? keep up the a good job Trent Porter.

[QUOTE=BlueJuicer;3356609]Don’t give them all the credit…it was actually the idea of this one “infamous” (to put it nicely) former SkyWest guy who is initial breeze cadre who touted its success at SkyWest. Or so I hear.[/QUOTE
Good ole delta bravo. Breezes finest, no doubt.
