About the engine howl it happens because of the intake of the engines. It happens on the newer P&W engines. They’re on the a320 neo family, The E2 E-jets, and the a220. Some choose the CFM leap for the engine but I LOVE the engine howl so. The noise happens during engine startup, throttling up, and reverse thrusting.

[@aviationfascination]

The a220 is definitely my favorite Airbus aircraft right now, although I still have yet to fly the a350 and the a380.

[@bryanhughes5932]

I Am Absolutely Most Definitely Planning To Travel With Breeze Airlines Whenever I Do Go On Vacation Trips With My Friends In The Future As Well Too Now!!! And I Also Absolutely Wish That Breeze Airlines Offered Flights To And From Houston Texas To Other Parts Of The United States And Canada And Mexico And The Caribbean As Well Too Now!!! And Also Much Love To You And All Of Your Content From Houston Texas Too!!!

[@poker_18rs92]

I love the colors of that A220-300!

WELCOME TO RALEIGH-DURHAM

[@philiperigo-backsman7487]

So much detail - thank you! I'm flying Breeze for the first time in early March 2024.

[@ajmedeiros77]

Just flew breeze from Raleigh to Providence last night for the first time. As a big guy I am glad it was a short flight not that comfortable. I was in the back row 18. I did love hearing those Pratt & Whitney’s spool up. Staff was super friendly even the pilot was talkative when boarding. If I have to do a longer flight on breeze, I would try to get the first class seating.

[@jaylove1970]

Flying Breeze tomorrow for the first time. Thanks for this video. Great spokes person 💯

[@steveallman7581]

Another great vid!

[@PennyPincher60]

smoothest landing I have every seen

[@jfm215]

great vid!!!

[@DanknDerpyGamer]

1:47 - 1:49 There used to be airsides B, and D making for there being airsides A/B/C/D/E/F in a counterclockwise fashion, apparently there is gonna be a new airside D in the future.

[@user-fq6yu6ys9j]

Happy that you were in .my second hometown tampa l been in that airport in and out so many times but in southwest and american airlines never in brezze is that a new airline thankyou for the information and keep them coming cheers jerry

[@dave4shmups]

Great trip review! There aren’t very many trip reports on Breeze on KZbin.

[@michaelsharp3615]

I flew into Tampa a year ago there was no one in line in pre check security in Concourse C at 4 in the morning!!!

[@andysorensen1737]

Regarding your question on Airsides B & D, both of those were demolished in the 90s.

[@jjstevenz]

New plane, arrived 20 minutes early, butter landing. 10-10 for me

[@therealxavier123]

youve earned a sub

[@damnimloomin]

They used to have all of the missing letters for the terminals but they tore one down to rebuild a couple years ago and the terminal between A and C has been a baggage/ operations building for years! Im pretty sure at the end of the renovation the terminal letters will make sense again. Edit: I always thought Airside C was exclusively southwest 🤔 i had no idea they had to share lol

[@kashaaniawani9055]

6:38 the A321neo sounds the same, and it was my bizarre

[@gilv3367]

Give it a few years and get back to me. They are all fantastic and then age sets in.

[@K4Ediamond]

Haven’t flown breeze, but I’ve taken a few flights on the other new LCC, Avelo Airlines. They use ex-Southwest 737-700s, and although I believe they crammed a few more seats in, it’s still probably more comfortable than breeze.

[@drbcrb]

We have been on Southwest and Breeze and found the Breeze seat more comfortable

[@K4Ediamond]

@@drbcrb Interesting. I haven’t flown breeze but I’m just making the assumption based on how this video describes it. What aircraft type were you on with Southwest?

[@thomasmoore9421]

I'm a fan of the 220, having flown on delta's & JetBlue's version. I hope I'll be able to try air France, air Canada and swiss. If i try breeze, I'd go for their ascent seats. Though I doubt i would do it on a transcon.

[@alangaming2003]

Doesn’t exist

[@thomasmoore9421]

@@alangaming2003 are you referring to their nicest seats or that breeze flys across the country?

[@MICKbig06]

Are you planning on flying Avelo? I’ve heard good and bad things about them.

[@benisbored5446]

How do Breeze's seats compare to the new seats in Southwest's planes? I found those to be pretty uncomfortable too on longer flights.

[@ASAviation]

Oh I would say Southwest’s are still better. These Breeze seats were pretty bad…

[@Zambi75]

Avelo Next 🤞

[@Blank00]

How does seat comfort compare to AA Oasis and United narrowbodies?

[@ASAviation]

AA Oasis and UA beat this any day 😂

[@tomm9540]

Breeze should fly out of Trenton Airport and give Frontier some competition

[@jonathancapece]

As a note… Breeze is now only using the 137 seat layout. All Airbuses have been reconfigured to that layout.

[@ASAviation]

Thanks for the update, I was confused on what was the correct layout!

[@jonathancapece]

@@ASAviation They both were for a while! But they’ve since been modified. AND WiFi is almost complete across the 220s! Glad you were able to check out Breeze!

[@Marinate305]

Breeze seems to have odd routes. Similar to Allegiant where they tend to hit smaller airports or hubs in major cities. Clearwater opposed to Tampa. Midway vs ORD for SWA in Chicago etc..

[@johne2815]

Yes, I really appreciate that they fly Akron instead of Cleveland. Finally you can get cheap tickets in and out of CAK!

[@topofthegreen]

It’s time that southwest had some competition.

[@tpajay]

The baggage fees you talk about are misleading. I have flown Breeze (MX) 5 times. The routes & equipment I flew are: CAK-LAS (A220 R/T in Nicest) ; CAK-MCO (A220 one way Nicest); and CAK-PBI (E195 R/T in Nicer). The only section that pays for checked baggage & advance seat assignments are in the Nice section. If you're in the Nicer section, along with 3" more legroom, you get advance seat assignment & 1 checked bag free; In Nicest (now called Ascent F/C), you get advance seat assignment, 2 free checked bags, snacks, & alcohol. No matter which section you're in, bottled water, coffee, & tea are free. The Ascent seats were very comfortable & the Nicer seat on the E195 was fine for my 2hr. 20min. flights. I can't speak for the Nice seats comfort on the A220. I've never flown Spirit, Frontier (accept for the pre-1986 Frontier), or any other ULCC but I've heard their seats are more uncomfortable than Breeze. The fares have been very reasonable too.

[@davidharris2519]

you know Breeze now flies to SPI with flights to MCO and TPA

[@ASAviation]

Yes, very exciting service indeed.

Thats so awesome and lucky to see the new(American flag on the tail) Trump Force One 757-200 in Tampa!

its about to be 2024 and we still got people that need to show off they know it was built as the C Series....get over it already

I HATE that beached Wale sound! its aweful! I thought there was something wrong with the plane, but apparently that's the clutch or something turning..I'll take the airbus's barking dog anyday over that horrific sound! So loud too ugh!
