JetBlue Becomes the Only Airline to Offer
Nonstop Service from New York’s JFK to Belize City
To Celebrate Launch, Limited $119 One-Way Fares
Available Online Only on JetBlue.com
JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced it has officially
launched service between New York’s John F. Kennedy International
Airport (JFK) and Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport (BZE)
in Belize City, Belize, with the first flight arriving in Belize
this afternoon. JetBlue’s new Belize City service will operate
Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays, introducing the airline’s
award-winning service and low fares to customers looking to fly
directly from New York.
“We’re thrilled to add Belize to our growing network and offer
our customers more choices to experience unique and popular
destinations,” said David Jehn, vice president, network planning
and airline partnerships, JetBlue. “Adding nonstop service to
Belize enhances our presence in Latin America and the Caribbean and
demonstrates our commitment to introducing our low fares and great
service to more destinations and customers.”
“Americans comprise most international arrivals in Belize, with
nearly one million visitors traveling here to experience Belize’s
famous blue waters, sparkling beaches, and warm hospitality. This
year alone, already over 250,000 Americans and counting have passed
through this airport, representing two-thirds of all overnight
visitors to Belize. JetBlue’s new flight enables travelers to
experience new cultures, reconnect with their families and
heritage, do business together, and at the same time remind us of
how much we have in common,” said Michelle Kwan, Ambassador of the
United States to Belize.
“After months of anticipation, we’re thrilled to finally welcome
JetBlue’s first-ever nonstop flight to Belize, and we’re looking
forward to welcoming the passengers of this inaugural flight with
open arms,” said Hon. Anthony Mahler, Belize’s Minister of Tourism
and Diaspora Relations. “With an abundance of experiences that
Belize has to offer, our guests flying in from JFK are bound to
discover something new about our country around every corner. We’re
confident the beauty of our environment, the richness of our
diverse culture, and the warmth of our people will leave New
Yorkers wanting to return again soon.”
Belize is one of Central America’s most biodiverse countries. It
is home to mystical Mayan caves, wondrous aquatic habitats, and
lush national parks, touting tropical jungles, wildlife reserves,
and cascading flora and fauna. Located along the Caribbean Sea,
Belize offers over 185 miles of barrier reef - the largest in the
northern hemisphere - family-friendly attractions, romantic
escapes, and many other adventures.
With JetBlue’s entrance into Belize City, JetBlue becomes the
only airline to offer nonstop service from New York’s JFK to
Belize. Belize City will build on JetBlue’s success in the broader
region, where it offers service to 26 countries within Latin
America and the Caribbean. In recent years, the airline’s network
strategy has focused on enhancing international markets, which has
translated into current service to 40 international destinations.
As a leader at New York’s JFK, JetBlue’s new route to Belize allows
JetBlue to continue to grow in under-served geographies while
bringing more choices and options to our customers.
