Breeze Airways takes delivery of 1st aircraft

Salt Lake City-based Breeze Airways has formally taken delivery of its first aircraft, ERJ195 N190BZ (19000660). The aircraft is, however, not yet in the US, but in Costa Rica, where it was seen together with their second aircraft ERJ190 N90NA (19000070) on 30 December. Both aircraft wear the Breeze Airways-livery, but have no titles yet. The ERJ195 is a former Azul-plane, while the ERJ190 is coming from Air Canada, leased via Nordic Aviation Capital.

In the coming months Breeze Airways will lease (at least) two more former Azul ERJ190s, as well as fourteen ERJ190/195s from Nordic Aviation Capital. The airline also has firm orders for 60 Airbus A220-300s.
