JetBlue adds a Newark to Sarasota Airport route
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced it is adding 30 new domestic routes to serve customers in markets where leisure and VFR (visiting friends and relatives) travel is showing some signs of strength. With business travel facing a less certain recovery timeline, the new routes offer JetBlue the opportunity to generate revenue, bring aircraft back into service that would otherwise sit idle, and add more flying opportunities for JetBlue crew members.
Each market was identified as one in which JetBlue’s award-winning service and low fares will benefit travelers as well as support the airline’s cash position. The expanded service focuses on:
- Growing relevance in JetBlue’s focus cities
- Launch Mint flights between Newark and LAX/SFO
- Playing to JetBlue’s strength in Florida with new point-to-point routes
