Low-cost carrier JetBlue Airways Corp. JBLU has decided to launch new flights between New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB). Under the new extension, JetBlue will operate daily non-stop flights between these destinations.
JetBlue’s 150-seater Airbus A320 aircraft – featuring more leg space, cozy seats and offering over 100 TV and satellite radio channels from DIRECTV and Sirius XM Holdings Inc. SIRI – will serve this route. Apart from these facilities, flyers will be offered unlimited broadband access on the carrier’s Fly-Fi service.
Growing travel demand to popular holiday spots during holiday seasons have encouraged JetBlue to boost the Empire State and the Sunshine State routes with nearly 83 daily non-stop service. Meanwhile, initiation of new flights marks the carrier’s eight destination in Florida.
Meanwhile, after the successful launch of its seasonal Mint service on the New York to Barbados route, JetBlue announced its decision to expand its premium Mint service on a weekly basis last month.
Hence, we believe that increased flight frequencies coupled with low fares and innovative services will not only enhance travel options for passengers but will also boost revenues for JetBlue, going forward.
