HMSHost opens fast casual restaurant Blaze Pizza at John Wayne Airport

USA. HMSHost and partner S&C Robinson Enterprise have opened Blaze Pizza at John Wayne Airport Terminal B/C. The airport serves Orange County and the Greater Los Angeles area in California.

“We appreciate John Wayne Airport and the County of Orange for the opportunity to enhance the experience in their airport with the addition of Blaze Pizza,” said HMSHost Vice President of Business Development Iris Messina.

Blaze Pizza specialises in made-to-order artisanal pizzas, cooked in just three minutes in an open-flame oven. The menu features gluten-free and vegan options, as well as a variety of salads.

Travellers can also pre-order with the HMSHost ‘Host2Coast’ app, pay and schedule a pick-up time up to four hours in advance.

“As part of our commitment to elevating the superior guest experience, we’re excited to welcome Blaze Pizza to John Wayne Airport,” said Airport Director Barry Rondinella. “Blaze offers travellers a convenient dining option with a variety of freshly made ingredients perfect for any pizza fan including those with special dietary needs.”
