Breeze Airways to Offer Expanded Service
To Myrtle Beach, SC at NY Stewart in 2027
NEW WINDSOR, NY—While some area politicians have called for Orange County to take over marketing of the long struggling New York Stewart International Airport, airport operator—the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey—scored a recent victory as Breeze Airways will expand its services at the Orange County-based airport to Myrtle Beach, SC beginning in May 2027.
Just in time for Memorial Day weekend 2027, Breeze will offer new twice weekly service between New York Stewart and South Carolina that will include the added benefit of continued service to Fort Lauderdale, FL without deplaning or rechecking baggage. Service begins May 28, 2027, with tickets available now on the Breeze Airways website, the Port Authority announced on Oct. 29.
Flights will operate on Airbus A220-300 aircraft, with departures from SWF at 11:17 a.m. on Mondays and on Fridays. The new service to Myrtle Beach and Breeze’s “BreezeThru” service to Fort Lauderdale adds more flights and flexibility to some of New York Stewart’s most popular destinations.
The expanded service builds on Breeze Airways’ growing presence at New York Stewart, where the airline also operates year-round service to Charleston, SC; Orlando, FL and Raleigh-Durham, NC, with “BreezeThru” service to Tampa, FL and seasonal service to other destinations.
“More flights at New York Stewart mean more flexibility and better fares for Hudson Valley travelers,” said Port Authority Chairman Kevin O’Toole. “We are focused on working with airlines and local partners to highlight New York Stewart as an easy alternative to popular domestic destinations when traveling in the New York-New Jersey region.”
“On behalf of all Hudson Valley residents, this is a fantastic addition to our regional airport,” said New York State Sen. James Skoufis. “For the first time in a long time, there is meaningful momentum at Stewart Airport and I will continue working with the Port Authority and all stakeholders to build on this success. I sincerely thank Breeze Airways for this new route and their well-placed faith in Stewart Airport.”
