JetBlue is reducing schedules and cutting routes in the Northeast United States following the judge's order to end its alliance with American Airlines. JetBlue will reduce capacity on the LaGuardia-Boston route from October, at around the same time of American Airlines launch of the route.
According to Cirium data, JetBlue removed 71 flights (each way) on the route in November, amounting to a loss of almost 14,000 seats. The airline has also cut schedules in 2024, with 55 in December, 73 in January, 77 in February, and more later into the year.
JetBlue will also reduce its capacity on the LaGuardia-Charleston route removing the second daily flight. The airline will now serve the route five times per week. With this cut the airline has reduced 7,812 seats in November and as much as 10,044 in January 2024.
Cirium data reveals that JetBlue removed just fifteen flights in each direction in November, resulting in a reduction of 3,000 seats from the Boston- Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport route in November.
The airline will also reduce service to one daily on the LaGuardia to Nashville from October 28. The airline operates twelve weekly flights on the route, twice every Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays deploying its E190s and A320s. The airline will remove its E190 from the route in November 2023.
The airline will completely stop all flights on the LaGuardia to Savannah, Georgia. JetBlue had plans to operate the route daily through 2024, but from October 29, the airline will cease operations on the route cutting almost 10,000 monthly seats in its network
