TULSA, OK – March 8, 2022 –Today Breeze Airways announced their plans to add seasonal nonstop service between Tulsa and Nashville (BNA) beginning June 2, 2022. Nashville will be the 25th nonstop destination served from Tulsa International Airport.

Breeze, which began service in May 2021 primarily in the east and southeast of the United States, is now expanding across the U.S. with 77 routes between 28 cities in 18 states. The new U.S. low-fare airline is adding 35 routes this summer from 10 new cities. Tulsa was one of the initial 16 cities in the Breeze route network, and the airline has offered nonstop service from Tulsa to Tampa (TPA) since June 2021.

“Traveling between two of the top music cities in the United States just became easier with Breeze Airways’ new nonstop between Tulsa and Nashville,” said Andrew Pierini, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer at Tulsa International Airport. “We are excited for fans, musicians and tourists to be able to fly nonstop to enjoy what all each city has to offer.”

“I am thrilled to join TIA in welcoming yet another nonstop flight to Tulsa,” Mayor G.T.
