JetBlue has announced its expansion plans in Europe, with the introduction of nonstop flights from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS).
The airline has made the tickets available for sale starting today. Flights from New York will commence from August 29 and from Boston on September 20.
JetBlue's launch of nonstop flights between New York and Boston to Amsterdam marks the airline's third transatlantic market entry, with its London service successfully launched in August 2021 and its Paris service set to begin in June.
JetBlue CEO Insights
Robin Hayes, CEO of JetBlue, stated that the transatlantic service launch to Amsterdam shows how the entrance of JetBlue into a new market can lower fares and benefit customers, as entrenched legacy carriers have dominated the route for decades.
He also expressed the airline's excitement to expand its transatlantic presence and introduce customers to JetBlue's award-winning service and its acclaimed Mint and core products at affordable fares.
JetBlue Flights
The US carrier will operate daily flights between New York and Boston to Amsterdam using its Airbus A321 Long Range (LR) aircraft, which will have 24 redesigned Mint Suite® seats, 114 core seats, and a spacious Airspace cabin interior.
