JetBlue to Launch Service From Pittsburgh to Fort
Lauderdale-Hollywood
Service to Steel City Added as the Airline Continues to Grow Its
Presence in Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood; Introductory Fares Available
Through April 15, Starting at $79 One Way, Valid for Travel October
29 - December 17, 2014 (a)
FORT LAUDERDALE,
FL--(Marketwired - April 14, 2014) - JetBlue
Airways (NASDAQ: JBLU), the leading
carrier at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL),
will launch a new route to Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT)
on October 29, 2014. The service will complement JetBlue's existing
route from Pittsburgh to Boston Logan International Airport, and is
one of five upcoming routes announced for Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood
in 2014/15. To celebrate the new route, flights are now on sale
starting at $79 one way (a) for travel between October 29 and
December 17, 2014 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday (blackout
dates November 20 to December 1, 2014). Tickets must be purchased
by April 15.
"Pittsburghers have asked for a nonstop, year-round connection
to Florida. With the introduction of this service, customers will
not only save time, but also save money as this is traditionally a
high-fare route. Besides access to South Florida, this will also
meet the great demand for travels onwards to the Caribbean and
Latin America," said Robin Hayes, JetBlue's President.
"We are really excited to be adding another flight to the
offerings at Pittsburgh International," said Allegheny County
Executive Rich Fitzgerald. "This connection to Florida will benefit
business and leisure travelers and gives our region one more option
for their travel. We look forward to continuing to work with
JetBlue to grow that service here in Pittsburgh."
JetBlue currently operates 26 nonstop routes out of Fort
Lauderdale-Hollywood, with five more new routes already announced
to begin in 2014/15. On May 1, JetBlue will add three new nonstop
routes from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood to Montego Bay (Jamaica),
Port of Spain (Trinidad and Tobago) and Punta Cana (Dominican
Republic). Next year, the airline also intends to launch a nonstop
route to Albany, NY.
