Breeze Airways will bring new nonstop flights to Myrtle Beach from New York next spring.
Beginning May 6, 2026, the airline will fly two times weekly, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, between Long Island MacArthur Airport and Myrtle Beach, according to an announcement made by the town of Islip, NY.
The flights are already available for booking, starting at $69, the announcement said. Tickets are available on flybreeze.com.
