JetBlue Begins New York-to-London Direct Flights Starting at $202
It’s part of a boom in transatlantic service that’s all about low-cost, highly comfortable flights.
Just nine days after the U.K. granted vaccinated Americans quarantine-free entry, JetBlue Airways Corp. is making its first foray into transatlantic service, starting flights on the world’s most lucrative air route—from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport to London Heathrow—on Wednesday, Aug. 11.
It’s a long-awaited move for fans of the carrier, which has made its name offering affordable, friendly service primarily in the U.S. and the Caribbean. And it’s only the first step in a plan to bring its loyal customers to Europe: The airline is also set to begin service from Boston to London within the year.
