JetBlue Adds Two New Puerto Rico Routes
JetBlue will expand its services in Puerto Rico, introducing two new routes to the beautiful island, also known as “La Isla del Encanto”.
These new routes, available for purchase starting today and scheduled to commence this summer, will provide year-round flights from Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) in San Juan, Puerto Rico to Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) in North Carolina, and from Rafael Hernández International Airport (BQN) in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico to Tampa International Airport (TPA) in Florida.
This announcement marks a significant milestone for JetBlue, as it coincides with the airline’s 21st anniversary of providing air travel services in San Juan, Puerto Rico. In addition to San Juan, JetBlue currently offers its services in Aguadilla and Ponce, operating an average of 35 departures from Puerto Rico each day. With the introduction of the Raleigh route, JetBlue will expand its services and offer flights between Puerto Rico and a total of 12 cities in the United States and the Caribbean.
When JetBlue joins forces with Spirit, assuming the planned merger is completed successfully, it will open up additional growth opportunities in Puerto Rico that would otherwise not be possible. By leveraging the strengths of both airlines, JetBlue aims to offer customers more options and expand its low-fares to new nonstop destinations that are currently not viable.
To celebrate today’s announcement, and for a limited time, seats are out for sale today with fares as low as $99 one-way. You can book online only on www.jetblue.com.
