LATROBE, Pa. — The Arnold Palmer Regional Airport in Westmoreland County has a new airline.

Breeze Airways announced on Tuesday that it will now be flying out of the Latrobe airport.

On the airline’s website, it shows flight options out of Latrobe to Myrtle Beach, S.C., starting in February, and Orlando, Fla., starting in May.

In September, the Westmoreland County Airport Authority announced that it had secured an $850,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation. Funding came from the DOT’s Small Community Air Service Development program, which provides a financial incentive to help an airline establish service at the airport.

Arnold Palmer has been without a carrier since May 1, when Spirit Airlines abruptly shut down.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates as more information becomes available.
