CEO Robin Hayes celebrated the carrier’s announcement and new connections, highlighting JetBlue’s offerings of affordability and comfort via its Mint premium product. Hayes explained,
“Our summer seasonal service to Dublin and Edinburgh will bring a new level of service and affordable fares to these markets that have been dominated by high-fare legacy carriers for decades. We look forward to introducing the JetBlue experience to business and leisure customers traveling this summer to and from Ireland and Scotland.”

Amid continued demand, flights between Boston and Paris will move from seasonal to year-round from April 3, while JetBlue’s New York to Paris will see a second daily connection from June 20.

Alongside scaling up services into the UK and France, JetBlue has also recently entered into a partnership with Polish flag carrier LOT Polish Airlines, expanding the preexisting interline agreement to strengthen connectivity between North America and Central Europe. Set to launch over the peak winter travel season; the upgraded partnership will streamline the travel process when transiting through LOT and JetBlue’s connecting airports.
The ramp-up in connectivity through Western and Central Europe could likely be a response to the Dutch Government’s plans to cut capacity at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, potentially limiting year-round operations for the low-cost carrier. In September, the airline became the latest to openly condemn Mark Rutte’s government, outlining its complaints with the US Department of Transportation (DOT).
Ejecting a US carrier from the U.S.-Amsterdam air services market by failing to make any slots available for the upcoming scheduling season is a clear denial of an opportunity to compete.
The added capacity at airports in the UK and France will likely supplement JetBlue’s operations if the Dutch Government’s plans put a pause on its operations; however, it would need to bolster its codeshare agreements through the continent to add extra onward connectivity.
