JetBlue Ramps Up Service out of D.C., N.Y. Airports

JetBlue will launch service May 3 between Washington (Dulles) and Las Vegas, Boston and Phoenix, and New York (LaGuardia) and Orlando.

JetBlue already had announced new service between New York (Kennedy) and Bermuda beginning May 4, and said it also will begin offering four daily flights between New York (Kennedy) and Portland, Maine, May 23.

JetBlue Chairman and CEO David Neeleman noted the additions are “just the beginning,” because the airline is taking delivery on a new aircraft every 10 days this year.

Las Vegas will become the sixth destination JetBlue serves from Washington (Dulles), and the daily service includes a red-eye return. Phoenix will become its 17th destination served from Boston, with daily service. And with the twice-daily LaGuardia-Orlando service, JetBlue will be offering 18 daily nonstop flights to Orlando from all three New York area airports.
