Breeze Airways announced that it will add six new routes from Provo Airport next year, with flights starting between March 11 and 19+ the new service includes routes to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and other Western cities at promotional one-way fares of $39 to $49.

Congress approved cuts to federal funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting that will remove about $2 million annually from PBS Utah, $500,000 from KUER and $200,000 from UPR, so local stations will soon reduce programming and search for new funds—officials said local stations will stay on air. Officials also warned that the funding loss may affect services like the Emergency Alert System and music rights negotiations—community support and state grants may help fill the gap.
