Flysteady Mon: Jetblue Adding Routes to Barbados, Jamaica

While Jetblue covers their bums on the east coast with the announcement of Boston- BWI flights, they're meanwhile letting it all hang out in the Caribbean. Beginning May 21, New Yorkers (and those connecting through T5) will be dusting off the sunblock for a new direct route from JFK to Montego Bay, Jamaica. Now where did we stash the tie-dye and dreads from last halloween?

That's not all, folks! The tropical love continues with another new route addition from JFK, this time to Barbados, beginning October 1 and therefore giving more options to the snow birds. Fort Lauderdale will also see some new Caribbean connections when Jetblue adds Cancun and Santo Domingo on June 18. We'll raise a Dos Equis to that, yo.

Start booking now for the new Montego Bay, Cancun and Santo Domingo routes, but hold your flip flops for a while with Barbados; there's international negotiations yet to be made and coconut milk yet to be spiked before New Yorkers get the green light on this route in fall.
