Drove by the airport today. They’re clearing all the trees by the Long Term parking entrance. Wonder what they’re building? Expanding the roadway?

You’ll probably see AA compete on this route now

Frontier starts non stop service to PHL.

New Breeze Route; ORF- PHX

Frontier to offer new route to Atlanta from ORF. Finally breaking the Delta monopoly.

Yes, mainly expect new routes that weren’t offered before because the A220 was based at another airport. This is a great start at longer international flights out of ORF since the crew can now be used for longer periods of time.

It means that ORF will operate A220’s as well as the ERJ (until they retire them.) We are going to be more like the other bases now like TPA and CHS. Expect new routes in the coming months too. I’m definitely betting on the Provo route.

ORF A220 Base opens around September

I agree, I bet on about a 2 year construction at minimum. It would be interesting to see if the Airport plans on using the current customs facility for anything in the mean time.

My guess is we have a few Airlines wanting to start international service but we just don’t exactly meet the expectations for it yet. Probably fast tracked because we know that the business is there. Breeze could even have a stake in it, we’re definitely in range for some international destinations with the A220. Even the E-Jets can get to Canada easily.

Federal Funding For Customs Facility ORF Received 6M in federal funding for the facility. Construction is expected to begin late summer.

No, we are getting 4 Movers instead of 2. Sure being the longest in the world is cool, but it’s very expensive to maintain.

Has anyone talked about this yet? Looks like Southwest is adding non-stops to St. Louis and Spirit to Boston. The Boston route will be saturated with Allegiant, Delta, and now Spirit.

HAHA I think this same thing every time I read his posts…. It’s an airport buddy it’s not that deep.

Norfolk - Hawaii would be longer than a lot of international routes. That would be something to see.
