«Having lived so close to Westchester Airport for many years, I was wasting a lot of time driving to JFK or Newark to travel to the West Coast,» said Breeze founder and CEO David Neeleman.
«We will now offer daily flights to the most in-demand markets from New York, with the state-of-the-art Airbus A220 aircraft, which offers unmatched comfort with thirty-six first-class seats, ten extra legroom and eighty standard seats, and half the noise of previous generations. There is literally no faster and more comfortable way to get from Westchester to the West Coast,» he added.
