Disappointed with the starting date (Summer 2022) from Boston, but not the airfares! $599 round trip from NYC starting this summer to Heathrow, holy crap, that’s awesome! And Mint $1,979 round trip! Wow!
I freakin love Jet Blue!!
JetBlue announces long-awaited flights to London - The Points Guy
London's calling, and JetBlue's ready to answer.www.google.com
I noticed the Blue fare includes a checked bag for London flights which is not the case for anything on our side of the Atlantic. The Blue Basic also allows a carry-on. From a points perspective its about 160K TrueBlue for MINT roundtrip based on November pricing on JFK-Heathrow. I'd think I would rather use True Blue points for Caribbean at the end of the day.
There are still some Caribbean and Latin American destinations where Blue Plus (including a checked bag) is available - Port Au Prince is a notable one from Boston and a lot of the non-Colombian South American routes like Lima have the option too.
Breeze announced PVD-ORF, PVD-CHS, PVD-PIT as its first Providence routes, giving Jetblue, Delta, Allegiant some competition from south-of-city fliers at Logan.Breeze chose TPA - CHS as its first route.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see more BOS-TPA or BOS-CHS just to make sure Breeze”doesn’t get any ideas” and sticks to “intra south” flying
Gee, Southwest would be fully capable of all those PVD routes. Is Breeze just going to pick off the smaller-than-a-737 O&D pairs on Southwest's route map?
Not sure why, but Southwest used to have a nice route map where you could hover over a city, and see all the non-stop destinations. Anyways, how large is Southwest in Pittsburgh?
Beginning November 17th, Spirit is adding non-stop service to Miami.
There will now be 5 airlines serving Miami from Boston - American, Delta, Frontier, JetBlue and Spirit.
Spirit only flies to FLL so their "Miami" flight will be to Fort Lauderdale too. It's a horrible airport I agree.And it'll probably still be cheaper to fly into FLL (which is an airport I'm growing to hate).
Thinking of Breeze, it is interesting to look back to 2010 and see all the places that:
AirTran flew that Southwest eventually left...that Spirit Airilnes has not backfilled
Huntsville is one, but...(some include)
Flint MI (which is also a fave for anyone on Detroit's north side)
Dayton OH
Harrisburg PA

No, this is about them starting service to Miami.
Southwest schedule extension has a bizarre Sunday only Boston-Kansas City flight starting in November.
Both flights timed to arrive at 5pm so its not the use of a spare plane doing a back and forth run.
The sunday only is a bit weird, but SW used to have a regular daily BOS-MCI flight at least between 2014-Jan 2020, so there was at least demand for that route.Southwest schedule extension has a bizarre Sunday only Boston-Kansas City flight starting in November.
