I flew from Orlando to Provo, Utah via Santa Ana in California on a "Breeze Thru" connecting flight, which aims to maximise aircraft use and provide guaranteed connections. So, what's it actually like? It was half the price of Delta first class for almost the same route (Delta fly to SLC, 50 miles to the north). So, what's it like? The result surprised me!

Is there any way of knowing which individual aircraft *do* and *don't* have wifi currently? So you could potentially know in advance?

I flew this transcon to LAX, and I was honestly impressed. Would prefer to layover, but nice to have this as an option. My only real complaint, strange one I know, is that they did not come around to take the trash enough. That A220 on the other hand is truly something special. Could not believe how big the windows were, and how QUIET it was.

Did a round trip on Breeze first class and it was a nice trip. No wifi and no meal service but knew about it beforehand and brought food and don’t care nor want to pay for wifi. United and Delta first class had nice meals but not worth the price difference. Flight attendant in trip out was incredible and super attentive to passengers. Flight back back all the flight attendants kept gathering in front to talk to each other and hid around corner so you had to get up to get their attention. Friendly staff and will fly again

Breeze is breaking the monopoly held by SWA by me at ISP in NY. Their liveries are very nice. Looking forward to getting a flight with them.

What a beautiful day to fly! Breeze flies out of New Orleans, so I definitely will consider. The food in airports is ridiculously pricey. Last week at LHR, I couldn't have a drink and small meal for $20.00. Geez. Great video!

Just flew Breeze earlier this month from Hartford,CT to Charleston,SC roundtrip..It wasn't bad..no complaints..under $200..you get what you pay for

I guess they've resolved their operations issues. I almost got stranded in Hartford because they delayed, delayed, delayed, and then cancelled their Hartford to Charleston flight. Luckily, the travel boards had alerted that Breeze would do that to some flights.

Conceptually, Breeze Ascent is very similar to Porter Reserve on Porter Airlines. The difference is that since Porter uses E2-195, Porter Reserve seats would have the same 2+2 configuration as the normal "economy" seats, thus they are not wider, like what you have in Breeze Ascent. However, Porter Reserve includes a proper cold meal.

And all Porter jets come with Wi-Fi, free for the entire flight if you sign in with your VIPorter account

I went to school in Provo, and I would have LOVED for Provo to be taking commercial flights when I was there. Heading up to SLC wasn't the end of the world, but I love that Breeze is serving interesting smaller markets.

Very nice! My longest A220 flight was Montreal to Vancouver on Air Canada, thanks to a strong headwind it was 6 hours. Still very comfortable in economy.

5:35 - Hoping that they ditch ALL of their Embraers for the A220 - a much better plane!

Thanks for this vlog. Safe travels. Cheers.

your videos are always so relaxing to watch in the evening. i recently flew spirit for the first time on a route i had done twice before with other airlines (delta, united) and, being totally honest, for the low price i really enjoyed it. it's gotten me curious to try other carriers when i get the chance.

Great flight. For 7 hours flight with only Snack box onboard, I think bringing your own food outside airport is a must.

Great video as always, Paul!

Nice video. Nice seat. Thanks Paul.👌💚

Just ask the A220 out already.

Love your videos still Paul. Always an adventure.

Glad you loved Breeze. They are now my favorite airline and the A220 has become my favorite narrowbody as well. ❤️

I Flew Breeze last year from Tampa to Charleston, SC, and back. Breeze gate agents were extremely rude in Tampa but extremely friendly in Charleston, along with a very friendly flight crew. I Flew economy up which was just Nicest. For that short of a flight, the onboard service was fine. However, several of the Ascent seats including mine had broken parts and my back started getting hurt on the way up in economy I just flew 8 hours in Delta economy and my back did not hurt. Got some good Instagram moments on the flight back as a lady boarded the plane with a large Chucky doll (it was just a couple of days before Halloween).

Great look at Breeze! You’d definitely get a much different ground experience flying them now out of MCO, since they operate out of the new C terminal. Might be worth a revisit!

What a lovely plane. I actually had a Southwest flight that started in Santa Ana, paused in Phoenix then off to my destination. Never left the plane. I rather liked that, saved so much walking. Plus the take offs at SNA are fun... lol.. rapid take off then the glide to reduce noise. Hopefully Breeze does well, it looks like a really good and affordable product.

Love your channel Paul. Been following for years. Keep up the great content.

Airbus should model all their future planes designs like the A220. Best looking modern plane currently in use imo. The nose is perfect.

Bombardier and the subsidiaries before it sure made planes with nice noses. CRJ, Q-series Dash 8's, and the C-series which is now the A220

Always love flying the A220 most of the times with Swiss or AirBaltic! Always enjoy it. Great video. To bad no real food options.

The rainbow at 15:15 is pretty special! Seems like a great idea - weird there’s no proper meal service but apart from that - fab product!

Amazing content as always.

Hey Paul, I enjoyed the twist with this one!. The hot mess class system had me believing it was heading towards a one to avoid and then they over delivered!!! 🏆😀

Brilliant video. I would love to see a video for Barbados-LHR with BA. Very unique in that they use a completely separate terminal for their first class customers, with a private vehicle taking them to the aircraft.

I so enjoy your videos,Paul. I think I’ll give Breeze airline a try, thanks for the tip.

Loved the Coffeezilla cameo. :D

I like the layout of MCO. Connecting to terminals is easy and rental cars are available at the airport without needing to take a shuttle.

I believe the Breeze A220s do have the ovens installed. Hopefully they start hot meal service! Great content.

Thank you Paul, I live in the Provo area and love the airport. Sadly being a Delta diamond I usually make the trek up to SLC but I have been able to use Breeze twice and found them excellent value.

@Paul_Lucas

Great to hear. If they are still able to get Delta frequent fliers to use Provo occasionally when SLC is up the road there is a future for them. New SLC airport is also really wonderful though!

Flew Breeze Ascent from LAS to ORF. The wifi was great. Could stream or even play games over it. The 220's are awesome and a breath of fresh air.

Great video! I've wondered what their cabin and service is like, from the looks of it both are excellent. The A220 is such a great choice for Breeze and their Interior is really nice. So Breeze flies nonstop from Orange County to Orange County. (MCO is in Orange County, Fla). BTW, and inexpensive option for food at an expensive airport is to look for a restaurant or shop that sells bananas, they are about the only food they have less than $10.99. I ususally bring Protien Bars in my carry on as well.

Thanks for showing my home airport some love! SNA is awesome

What a great video bro I love it 👏❤

Love the livery Breeze has! They should at least include a complimentary meal for a first class product

A220 is my Favorit Aircraft. Fly them regularly with AirFrance .

Really interesting video. I've flown a fair bit around America and never even heard of Breeze! For the price of First Class it looks a very attractive option. Not sure about Nice/Nicer/Nicest and Breeze Ascent as marketing terms - but I guess we pick it up quickly enough.

The last time I was flying Breeze was from New Orleans to Tulsa in the ERJ 190 during its very early stages. The seated class I was in was Nicer cause the plane only had two classes Nice and Nicer. I wish they had more flights to the Central Plains states. But Breeze Airways became to be one of my favorite airlines.

those A220 are amazing and that livery is great on that breeze aircraft

I find airport are expensive in general are a little more expensive when it comes to a pre-flight meal. I sometimes pack something in my carry-on to snack on as I usually pass through a couple of airports when travelling.

Travelled on a brand new Air Baltic A220 - Lovely aircraft,

Provo, Spain?? Fletch never gets old.

Great video Paul! I especially love seeing Breeze’s CLASSY AND SHOCKINGLY UNIQUE Livery especially on their A220 fleet! 😊 Also, I see you visited from Orlando Airport, as a longtime OG subscriber of yours, I know you have visited MCO quite a few times now with Frontier Airlines, Delta and JetBlue I believe also, even though the terminal building is outdated and really needs renovation, I still like that classic from the 1980s an early 90s. 😂 Finally the seat on Breeze’s A220-300 looks absolutely amazing, especially for a domestic US airline except for no hot food 🥘 that seems a bit of a loss to me. However, as much as I would like to try Breeze a lot of the roots they fly are mostly for leisure and they are still a pretty niche carrier Sadly, I don’t think I would go out of my way to fly. 😢🎉 Great video anyway! Maybe if Breeze adds a service from somewhere in Michigan where I live, such as Lansing maybe then I’ll give them a try! Also at 3:11 I get flashbacks to your previous trip with Delta on their A350 from Atlanta to LAX in Delta One Suite but only “First Class” on a domestic DL Flight in the whole buying food to eat on the plane while in First Class of all things! Remember that what a horrible experience and I’m afraid you’ve managed to repeat again! 😂😂😮 Cheers 🥂 mate! Caleb’s Aviation 😊

I’m going to go as far to say I think it looks like one of the nicest aircraft’s I have seen. Cracking flight and the service looks amazing too. Imagine something like that flying from Inverness where I live to London..

It's not just airline food prices that went up after Covid. They've always been high. Everything outside of the airport has gone up by 50% or more in some cases because of overall inflation. Gas prices where I live were $1.85/gallon in 2019 and are now over $3.20/gallon. Some other parts of the country have gas prices nearing $6.00/gallon.

Iam So Agreed Whit A220 Is ABeautiful Aircraft.Great Trip Report

Thanks

Too bad you didn't video the flight from EWR to MCO! Maybe next time Paul???

ITA just received a A220-100 in it’s brilliant all blue livery, you have to do the LCY flight to Milan.

She is a looker, one of the best

Not exactly only 2 hours longer if you are going to salt Lake City. You now have to find a way to get there which takes time. But in saying that the plane did look spectacular

Nice vid. 👍

Great video Paul, yes hopefully, they will be operating from Calgary to the rest of Canada & the U S

I see a FrontRunner review incoming. Maybe Salt Lake Express too.

I think the aircraft do have ovens. I saw a picture a few months ago in the forward galley and was surprised. So hard to tell what breeze has up its sleeve for future additions to the experience

2:48 10:17 the catch is that the meal is cold and doesn’t taste good at all 😂

that gorgeous flight attendant at 10:30 though.

This is a flight review, sir. Not a flight attendant review. Have a nice day.

I did like the fact you can stay on the plane for the stop-over and not have to get off

I enjoy your videos Paul . I just wish you would post more regularly and in some kind of order.

I'm with you on the prices at US airports. At LAX, Duty Free costs more than the high street on many items. I'd never heard of Breeze until now-will def consider for trans continental flights for the "nicest" seat alone. Shame they don't feed you.

Paul, you need to come back to Canada and try Porter Airlines on their Embraer E195-E2.

I flew breeze from John Wayne to John Glenn, besides them not accepting my bicycle as luggage (American did, no charge) and the abysmal ground handling (some contractor I never heard of) the airline went well beyond my expectations. It was just as relaxing as my flight on American on the way over, since neither had meal service, it was an even playing field.

nice one

I'm glad you had a good experience on Breeze. I flew them last year and it was a disaster. Breeze lost my suitcase (their agent put the wrong tag on my suitcase) and since they do not have customer service, it took over a week to get my suitcase back. Be warned, Breeze has no 1-800 number nor a customer service desk, the only way to reach them is through Facebook Messenger (I kid you not). After them loosing my suitcase, having me go to the airport four different times to find out the suitcase was not the flight it was supposed to be on, I go on either Delta or Avelo. I'd rather pay more to have help when I need it.

I had Breeze delay my Sunday evening return flight from Hartford to Charleston. First, it was one hour. Then it was delayed two hours. Then, delayed 5 hours to 11:00 that night, then delayed to 1am, then cancelled. Luckily they gave me a 18 hour heads up on the first hour delay so I could rush and book a one-way on Delta.

I'm a flight attendant for another airline, and Breeze does have ovens in the forward galley.

good,better,best

Please could you show the bulk head disabled seating ? What about the legroom and wheelchair services to get to the gate and priority boarding ? The A220 airplane is the sellng point here!

Enjoy your flight ✈️ on the Airbus 220

First Jeb Brooks and now you. Orlando making waves on KZread

I fly Breeze, usually Breese Accent, between CAK-LAS.

First, great video. Always great to have you in the States. Two questions. Did they do the steep climb and engine cut when you left Orange County? Also, have you ever had a Jack and Coke?

How did you get that microphone to sound so clear and not faintly distant. On my video I could not get a good sound out of it. However this was a lovely video on Breeze. I am thinking about trying them soon.

Not just our airport prices, sir!

The 220 all have WiFi now

I just like to ask please don’t put your drinks in the seat back pocket ( it can make a big mess) That’s why you get all the cup holders

Hello! It’s a website - turbli.com 😃

Books are very entertaining. Especially if there is no video.

Among us Americans, Provo is best known as the home of Brigham Young University. BYU is the Mormon Church's huge institute of higher education.

I never forgave Breeze for cancelling a flight to Charleston 12 HOURS before it was gonna depart due to 'mechanical issues'. Which they apparently have a lot of. Oh, and they have no help call line. It's by their stupid app. Never got a chance to try their 'nicest/ascent' seats. No entertainment whatsoever (though this is a minor quibble in the age of tablets). They eventually comped some of our miles but they pretty much cancelled our entire trip since we were travelling cross country. I'm glad things went better for you! This happened a little less than a year ago so maybe things have gotten better.

Unfortunately Breeze have suspended this route until 2024. SNA have told the airlines to reduce capacity until next year. I was going to do this same route in reverse, but when I went to book it..........every thing is blacked out until February.

They should offer some sort of meal service/buy onboard service. The flight length with no food doesn't feel right.

I think a lot of airports have always been quite expensive in America, even pre covid. Specifically JFK and Newark for me

I love your videos Paul, but I think you should consider some different music background in the future. 😊 This is like Transport Tycoon music. 🤷🏻‍♂️😊

Breeze seem to have stopped flying flight MX 603 all the way from Orlando. It is only SNA-PVU now.

I love that you mix it up with your content and that I never know what to expect next. Great video as always 😊

The great food court, is before TSA. I always get a slice of pizza etc.

$9.49 for a peanut butter and jelly is pretty bold. Jesus Christ.
