JetBlue to Offer New Services

JetBlue Airways has announced that it will add even more snowbird service this winter with the addition of daily nonstop service from Buffalo and White Plains to Fort Myers. Both routes will operate once daily from January 8, 2008 to April 30, 2008.

JetBlue’s new nonstop service to Southwest Florida International Airport complements its existing low-fare service between Buffalo Niagara International Airport and Boston, Fort Lauderdale (starts November 1) New York/JFK, and Orlando (starts November 15); and between Westchester County Airport and Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, and West Palm Beach.

In addition, JetBlue offers its unique brand of low fares between Florida and five other airports in the Empire State including Newburgh, New York/JFK, New York/LaGuardia, Rochester, and Syracuse. JetBlue will operate both new routes aboard its new Embraer 190.

Senator Charles Schumer said: “Today’s news is a grand slam for both JetBlue and Westchester and Buffalo residents. JetBlue has stepped up to the plate to make efficient and affordable air service a reality for travelers in Westchester and Buffalo, and local residents have once again proven a basic law of economics: when you offer top-shelf service at an affordable price, people scoop it up.”
