Breeze Airways adds Pennsylvania flight to TPA lineup

For those interested in taking a walking tour of scenes from “The Office” or hitting the slopes of Montage Mountain, good news is in the air. Breeze Airways is now adding a nonstop flight to the hometown of fictional paper company “Dunder Mifflin.”

Service from Tampa International Airport to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Airport on the low-cost airline begins Oct.18. Fares on the new flight start from $79 one-way, if purchased by July 1 for travel by Jan. 7, 2025. Currently connecting flights are approximately 4.5 hours. The new direct flight will be two hours 45 minutes. 

“Breeze’s focus is on connecting underserved markets, adding nonstops between cities with limited or no existing service,” says Breeze Airways’ President Tom Doxey in a statement. “All of these routes and cities are a perfect example of how Breeze’s premium leisure low-cost product has found its footing with great routes and added affordability and convenience. We know the communities in these markets will enjoy these new routes.”
