Breeze is a premium leisure low-cost carrier offering point-to-point service from 58 U.S. destinations.
Flights will operate five days per week during the winter season, providing seamless, non-stop access both for Western Colorado residents traveling to Southern California, as well as visitors coming to Telluride and the Montrose region. The SNA/Orange County Airport is located 18 minutes from Disneyland, 22 minutes from Newport Beach, 45 minutes to downtown L.A., and just one hour and 20 minutes from San Diego down the coast.
“Breeze has established itself as a premiere leisure carrier in just a short amount of time, and this winter service to Southern California will be a great addition for Montrose/Telluride and the region,” said Colorado Flights’ CEO Matt Skinner. “Breeze’s MTJ-Orange County flights will provide much-needed nonstop capacity to one of our strongest markets, for both inbound and outbound traffic”.
“Orange County continues to see great demand from our guests as it’s a convenient airport with easy access to many of Southern California’s amazing offerings, including Disneyland,” said Breeze Airways’ CEO David Neeleman. “We see a huge opportunity with this route, allowing more guests to experience the amazing skiing that Montrose and Telluride have to offer, and locals to travel to all that Southern California has to offer.”
