NEW YORK, November 05, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced the official launch of service between New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Bonaire’s Flamingo International Airport (BON), with the inaugural flight arriving on the island this afternoon. The twice-weekly roundtrip service, operating on Tuesdays and Saturdays, is the only nonstop option from New York’s JFK to Bonaire. With this new addition, JetBlue now connects travelers to all three of the ABC Islands, the Dutch Caribbean's Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao, as well as to St. Maarten, further expanding its robust Caribbean network.
"Renowned for its natural beauty, pristine beaches, and warm hospitality, we are excited to launch service to Bonaire, introducing a new destination and more travel options to our customers looking for a Caribbean getaway," said David Jehn, vice president of network planning and airline partnerships at JetBlue. "Expanding our service in the Caribbean demonstrates our commitment to continue providing our customers exceptional travel options and experiences while promoting tourism and accessibility."
"Welcoming JetBlue as an airline partner marks a significant step in our commitment to making our beautiful island more accessible to North American travelers," noted Miles Mercera, CEO at Tourism Corporation Bonaire. "This expansion not only reflects the growing interest in our region, but also showcases our dedication to fostering tourism and welcoming visitors to experience the unique culture and stunning landscapes we have to offer. Together, we're paving the way for new adventures and unforgettable memories."
"We are excited to celebrate the launch of this new direct flight from New York's JFK to Bonaire," said Maarten van der Scheer, CEO of Bonaire International Airport. "Welcoming JetBlue to Flamingo Airport, with a twice-weekly, year-round service, has been made possible through the hard work, dedication, and collaboration of many partners working toward the same goal: increasing connectivity to Bonaire and making it easier than ever for travelers to reach our beautiful island."
