NEW YORK- JetBlue Airways (B6) has announced the expansion of its transatlantic offerings by introducing new nonstop flights to Dublin departing from New York and Boston on March 13, 2024.
These daily summer-seasonal services from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Dublin Airport (DUB), Ireland, will be operational until September 30, 2024. This move underscores JetBlue’s disruptive role in the industry as it continues to provide affordable fares and excellent service on these sought-after routes.
JetBlue Dublin Flights
JetBlue has been shaking up the transatlantic market since its launch of flights to London in 2021, offering a refreshing, customer-centric experience without the traditionally high fares associated with legacy carriers.
Building on this success, JetBlue has expanded its route network to include Paris, Amsterdam, and now Dublin, with plans for further growth in Europe, including seasonal flights to Edinburgh and increased frequencies to Paris later this spring.
Joanna Geraghty, CEO of JetBlue, commented,
“JetBlue’s arrival in Dublin is poised to usher in a new era of affordable fares and exceptional service between Ireland and the Northeastern United States. We eagerly anticipate introducing our acclaimed Mint and core service to both business and leisure travelers flying to and from Dublin, just in time for Saint Patrick’s Day and the summer holiday season.”
Joanna Geraghty, CEO of JetBlue
Travelers from the U.S. contribute to nearly 20% of all overseas tourism to Ireland, and Dublin has consistently been one of the most requested European destinations not previously served by JetBlue.
With a strong historical connection between Ireland and the United States—especially JetBlue’s focus cities in the Northeast, namely New York and Boston—drawing millions of travelers annually in both directions, JetBlue remains committed to fulfilling its promise of taking customers to their desired destinations.
Passengers flying from Dublin can easily connect to JetBlue’s extensive network from New York and Boston to various destinations across the U.S., the Caribbean, and Latin America.
Executive Remarks
Gary McLean, Managing Director of Dublin Airport, commented,
“The arrival of JetBlue at Dublin Airport is fantastic news for passengers and Ireland alike, and these new direct routes between Dublin, New York, and Boston are expected to be highly popular. The demand for transatlantic travel has never been stronger, with business links between Ireland and the US continuing to grow. These new services from JetBlue will provide passengers with greater choice and value, and Dublin Airport eagerly anticipates collaborating with JetBlue to ensure their success.”
Alice Mansergh, Tourism Ireland’s CEO, said,
“We are thrilled that JetBlue has decided to introduce new nonstop services to Ireland. The launch of these new routes from New York and Boston to Dublin is excellent news for tourism to the island of Ireland. We are excited to work closely with JetBlue to maximize the promotion of these services. Direct, convenient, and competitive access is crucial for tourism. Tourism Ireland is committed to collaborating with airline partners like JetBlue and other key stakeholders to generate demand for these new routes. Our comprehensive campaigns aim to communicate to consumers the ease and convenience of traveling from the East Coast to Ireland and the unforgettable experiences and warm welcome that await them.”
