Comment on Schedule: Must Read
Read Time:1 Minute, 39 Second
Seems like the schedule is finalized for fall and most of winter for JetBlue so here’s what it is
Fort Myers: New changes! Flights start on 10/27 flying every Monday and Friday (last year was Sunday and Thursday). New for this year is they’ll go daily from November 20th to December 18th then go Sunday and Thursday until February 11th when it goes daily till April 28th. This has been getting better and better since the start so a good sign that this route is gaining popularity.
Fort Lauderdale: This one has some not surprising changes. First, starting September 4th the aircraft changes from the A220 back to the A320. For the month of September, the flight will only operate on Sundays and Thursdays. While this sounds bad, this isn’t surprising as load factors were around 50% for September last year. Once October 2nd hits, it goes daily except for Tuesdays and Wednesdays. It’ll go full daily starting on 11/20. It’s scheduled to be daily after that but most likely there will be changes for January and February.
Orlando: Flights are daily until 9/2, then will skip Tuesdays and Wednesdays for the month of September then go back to daily on 10/2.
No reason to panic with that Fort Lauderdale schedule. Again the load factors for September are terrible anyways so it makes sense. The Fort Myers change to Monday and Friday I think will be beneficial for those who want to spend a long weekend down there. Orlando as of right now has one flight for the spring but that can always change and all schedules are subject to change.
Also, if JetBlue were to add a route, Tampa should be it. Breeze could do it too and easily make money. That’s one of the highly requested routes. I’d rather take a successful route in Tampa versus JFK again if it shows there’s interest in the airport

JetBlue isn’t expanding at ORH. We just have to accept that. Every 6 to 12 months there’s some announcement about JetBlue expanding at other airports in the Northeast or partnering with another airline. And every time we all fall for it thinking that it could only mean good things for ORH. I think it’s safe to say that after 13 years, ORH isn’t part of JetBlue’s long-term plans other than whatever arrangement they have with Massport.
Tampa would be a great addition to ORH, I personally know quite a few people that flies to the Tampa area. Delta and AA make it possible to fly to TPA with one stop, but the flights arrive too late for anyone to even consider. JetBlue should at least add a few weekly flights to TPA. If not JetBlue, Breeze would do great with flights to Tampa.
