Breeze Airways will kick off a new service between the Akron-Canton, Ohio Airport and Portland, Maine, this summer.
At the same time, the carrier is discontinuing service from Akron-Canton to Los Angeles, deeming it too costly.
Portland will be the carrier’s 16th destination from Akron-Canton, according to Cleveland.com.
Flights to Portland will run Thursdays and Sundays starting July 2. Eastbound flights will leave Akron-Canton at 8:18 p.m., landing in Portland at 10:09 p.m. Return flights will leave Portland at 7 a.m., arriving at Akron-Canton at 9:01 a.m.
The seasonal route is expected to run through late October.
No other airline currently flies from northeast Ohio to Maine’s largest city.
