JETBLUE LANDS IN MANCHESTER!
July 26, 2024 | In an unprecedented and unexpected Move, JetBlue airways has officially announced their intentions to serve the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport in Manchester, New Hampshire. One of the biggest news and additions to the airport, jetblue will become the airport's 5th (Fifth) Newest airline to join the MHT roster, providing service to three Florida destinations.
Destinations offered by jetBlue will be from Orlando (MCO), Ft. Myers (RSW), and Ft. Lauderdale (FLL). This marks the return of Fort Lauderdale for the second time since 2022 when Spirit then offered FLL alongside TPA, MCO, and RSW. Jetblue is perhaps one of the most requested airlines to serve Manchester since 2006 due to their unique service and cabins, as well as amenities offered on board such as a TV in every seat, Wi-Fi, and a newer and fresher cabin with the newer Airbus A320's and A220 aircraft.
A jetBlue A220 departs from Boston. This will become a common sight in NH starting 2025 with the Airbus A320 series.
JetBlue will become the first airline to offer a more premium cabin feel with IFE (In-Flight Entertainment) Screens in every seat in more than four years after Delta left in 2020 (Then delta was the only carrier flying into MHT offering IFE screens on their A320/319 aircraft to/from ATL).
No doubt, jetBlue will be very successful in Manchester, as many granite staters have no more than rave and positive reviews of jetblue finally making its first-ever debut in Manchester, NH. The airport no doubt consider this the "Biggest win" to ever occur in the airport's history after almost two decades' worth of work to get the carrier to service the Granite State.
Only time will tell if having jetblue will boost the airport's numbers, and see whether the Granite Staters will now choose to fly out of MHT now that jetblue is serving the airport and avoid the hassle of flying through Logan Airport.
Flights start January 23, 2025, with Orlando and Ft. Myers, and January 24, 2025, with Ft. Lauderdale. MCO will be 1x daily beginning Jan 23, 2024, and RSW, and FLL will be offered 3x Weekly during the Winter. Fares start at $49 One-Way as a celebration for all routes on Blue Basic and must be booked by July 26, 2024.
