Breeze and Avianca Add Orlando Service as Carriers Move to Fill Spirit’s Void

Budget flyers still face fewer choices as replacements roll out.

Overview

  • Breeze Airways will start a daily nonstop between Orlando and Atlantic City on July 3 with one-way fares advertised from $89.
  • Avianca plans to make OrlandoMedellín a daily, year‑round route, though the expansion still needs approval from U.S. and Colombian regulators.
  • Frontier Airlines says it will add nine routes and 15 daily flights at Orlando International Airport this year.
  • Major U.S. carriers are boosting capacity, with Southwest expanding 17 existing routes from June through November and Delta adding seven new nonstops from Orlando.
  • The added flights ease the gap created when Spirit shut down last week, which canceled nearly 1,000 Orlando flights, yet many former routes remain unserved and travelers report disrupted plans despite stopgap options.
