JetBlue continues Florida growth with launch of Daytona Beach Service

JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU) recently announced the start of service to its newest destination with the launch of flights between New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB). JetBlue now serves eight Florida destinations and offers more flights between the Empire State and the Sunshine State than any other airline with up to 83 daily non-stops.

Flights operate daily and provide the only non-stop service between Daytona Beach and New York City. Customers traveling to JetBlue's home at JFK's T5 can also take advantage of convenient connections to many other JetBlue cities as well as international destinations offered by some of JetBlue's more than 40 airline partners.

"We launched our airline with its inaugural flight between New York's JFK and Florida almost 16 years ago and we are so pleased that all these years later we continue to offer even more new routes between these two popular regions," said Scott Laurence, senior vice president of network planning at JetBlue, and a graduate of Daytona Beach's Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. "Daytona Beach features so many exciting and sunny attractions that we knew it was time to offer travelers new flights and better value to this top destination."

More than half a million travelers pass through Daytona Beach International Airport annually, which offers easy access to the variety of artistic, cultural, and action-packed activities that make Florida's east central coast a top destination for visitors. The airport also features a growing list of shops and dining option as well as complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the terminals.
