Growing JetBlue's New England Presence

In addition to its growth in Boston, JetBlue is adding new New England routes from Providence, Rhode Island, and Hartford, Connecticut, to New York's JFK, providing onward connectivity to JetBlue's extensive JFK network.

On the same day, the airline will also resume service between JFK and Burbank on a seasonal basis. These flights not only provide travelers with convenient access to the New York metro area but also connects them to a world of leisure destinations, especially in the Caribbean, through JetBlue's expansive JFK focus city network and offers operational benefits as the airline plans a more reliable and efficient JFK schedule.

From Newark, JetBlue is relaunching service to popular destinations Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and Los Angeles, complementing JetBlue's year-round service to these destinations from New York's JFK. Service between Newark and Los Angeles will feature the airline's Mint® premium experience with fully lie-flat private suites and restaurant quality dining.

"With these new destinations and routes, JetBlue is introducing even more travelers to our industry-leading service, strengthening our position in New York and as the East Coast's leisure airline," said Shurz. "We're excited to build on our momentum, offering customers across the Northeast and beyond even more travel opportunities."
