Breeze Announces Nonstop Service from Greater Richmond to Cancún Beaches
May 5, 2026
Twice weekly flights on Mondays and Fridays starting in January 2027
Starting in January, Richmond travelers seeking sun and fun can catch a quick, nonstop flight with Breeze Airways to Cancún, Mexico, where they’ll be greeted by gorgeous white sand beaches, vibrant culture and nightlife, and experiences for everyone.
“Breeze Airways’ new nonstop service to Cancún strengthens Richmond International Airport’s vision to be the region’s preferred gateway to the world by enhancing the customer experience with convenient international connectivity,” said Perry J. Miller, Ph.D., A.A.E., I.A.P., president and CEO of the airport. “For the first time in more than a decade, Richmond-area travelers will enjoy direct access to one of Mexico’s most in-demand destinations, connecting our region with the Yucatán Peninsula’s vibrant culture, world-renowned beaches, and rich history.”
Breeze Airways, which will celebrate its fifth anniversary at RIC in July, added the new winter-spring seasonal route to Cancún with service beginning January 8, 2027. The RIC-CUN route will operate twice weekly on Mondays and Fridays. For a limited time, low introductory fares will be available to celebrate the announcement.
“Richmond hasn’t had nonstop flights to Cancún for more than a decade, so we know our Guests will love this new service launching in January,” said David Neeleman, founder and CEO of Breeze Airways. “The convenience of a destination like this, being able to travel right from your hometown airport without having to connect, is significant, and gives travelers more time to enjoy their vacations.”
