Sunday, 16 Feb, 2023 0

JetBlue announced new service between Fort Lauderdale and Tallahassee beginning in January 2024.

After its planned merger with Spirit, JetBlue expects to reach more than 250 Fort Lauderdale flights a day by 2027.

“We are ready to turbocharge further expansion once we combine with Spirit,” said Robin Hayes, CEO. “

Broward County’s master plan of Fort Lauderdale Airport would enable JetBlue to grow to more than 250 daily flights.

JetBlue has already committed support for a new Terminal 5.

“We commend JetBlue for expanding and providing more direct flights between the capital and South Florida,” said Governor Ron DeSantis.

JetBlue plans to combine with Spirit and further grow its FLL schedule over the coming years,.

Both carriers currently have slots at Fort Lauderdale.

Upcoming plans include offering flights to approximately 30 markets not yet served by either JetBlue or Spirit.

JetBlue’s daily service to Tallahassee offers an essential low cost connection for business and education and on to other JetBlue destinations.
