Low-cost airline Breeze Airways continues to grow, announcing four new routes to Florida this week. The additions comprise three flights to Orlando and one to Tampa from cities across the U.S. Like many Breeze flights, the additions fly to underserved airports, helping lower prices while using modern aircraft, like the Airbus A220 and Embraer 190 and 195.

Key West

A chain of islands surrounded by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, Key West is a world apart from the mainland.
