JetBlue says its new routes, which represent the airline’s first transatlantic foray, will underline a “new era” of “customer-focused, low-fare travel between the US and Europe”.
It is yet unclear, though, at which London airport JetBlue will base its UK operations.
“JetBlue is evaluating which London airports it will serve,” said the airline.
JetBlue will convert 13 of the 85 Airbus A321s it has on order to the manufacturer’s long-range version for deployment on its proposed transatlantic routes.
The airline says it has the option to convert more in the future should it wish to expand its transatlantic operation.
