JetBlue announced plans to significantly expand travel options in New England, United States, by adding new flight routes to in-demand vacation destinations. This will see an addition of more than 20% seats in the region by winter 2024. 

The Boston-based airline will add more flight routes from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and other New England airports. Additionally, the carrier will launch a service for the first time from Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) in Manchester, New Hampshire. 

“We are incredibly proud of our strong roots in Boston and New England, a place that has always embraced our vision for low fares and superior travel experiences,” Marty St. George, President of JetBlue commented in a press release. “With each new development, each new route, we aim to deliver even greater comfort and convenience, ensuring that our customers’ choice is easy.” 

The carrier will expand its routes between Boston and various holiday destinations such as Aruba, Barbados, Cancun, Grand Cayman, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, Liberia, Miami, Montego Bay, Nassau, Orlando, West Palm Beach, Punta Cana, Providenciales, Sarasota, St. Maarten, St. Lucia, and Tampa. The airline will also start a second daily nonstop flight between Boston and Phoenix.  

JetBlue will launch the only nonstop service from Buffalo Niagara International Airport (BUF) to Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) on a seasonal basis, connecting New York and Florida in the winter months. Buffalo and Albany will each have an additional daily flight to Fort Lauderdale and Orlando this winter. Syracuse will also add an extra daily flight to Orlando. 

The carrier has been operating at Boston Logan International Airport for more than 20 years. JetBlue offers more mainline flights from Boston than any other airline – approximately 30% more than its competitors.  

By February 2024, JetBlue will be operating over 225 daily flights departing from Florida, marking an 8% increase compared to 2023. Currently JetBlue carries customers to more than 100 destinations throughout the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, Canada, and Europe.
