We want to help fill the void created by this loss.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>$99 Rescue Fares to Help Stranded Travelers Get Home<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nTo assist stranded Spirit customers with imminent travel, JetBlue is offering $99 one-way fares to individuals with proof of a valid Spirit itinerary for the same route (or co-located airport) for travel through Wednesday, May 6\u00b9. These customers should call 1-800-JETBLUE to discuss their situation.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWith major operations in Fort Lauderdale and San Juan, we\u2019re in a unique position to help Spirit customers get where they need to go and ensure flights remain affordable despite greater demand,\u201d said Geraghty. \u201cWe understand how unsettling it may be for travelers who are suddenly unsure of what to do next.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBeginning May 1, 2026, JetBlue will also cap all Blue Basic fares at $299 on JetBlue-operated nonstop routes to and from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and San Juan, Puerto Rico\u2019s Luis Mu\u00f1oz Mar\u00edn International Airport (SJU) that were also operated by Spirit as of April.\u00b9 The fare caps will apply to new itinerary purchases made through May 8, 2026, for travel between May 2, 2026 and May 8, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWhile JetBlue always offers a great experience at an everyday low fare, the fare cap is designed to help customers avoid higher last-minute prices as more people book alternative travel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nFort Lauderdale and San Juan are both JetBlue focus cities, and JetBlue is the largest airline in both cities, offering an extensive route network. These two cities have also been among Spirit\u2019s busiest markets, meaning travelers there may experience significant disruption from the sudden loss of service. JetBlue is stepping in where the need is greatest and where the airline has the scale and reach to provide meaningful support.<\/p>\n<p>\nJetBlue will continue to monitor demand and operational capacity and may adjust based on customer needs.<\/p>\n<p><b>Taking Care of Spirit Team Members<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nJetBlue also recognizes that some Spirit pilots and flight attendants may be stranded following the airline\u2019s shutdown. To support crewmembers during this challenging time, JetBlue will extend its jumpseat agreement for the next two weeks, subject to space availability and limited to cabin seating. In addition, the airline plans to offer interview opportunities to qualified Spirit team members impacted by the shutdown.<\/p>\n<p><b>Stepping Up Service in Fort Lauderdale<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to capping fares, JetBlue is adding new service to further expand options for customers in Fort Lauderdale. The additional flying builds on JetBlue\u2019s role as Fort Lauderdale\u2019s largest airline and reflects the carrier\u2019s commitment to providing its award-winning service and competitive fares for South Florida travelers during a period of meaningful change in the market.<\/p>\n<p>\nWith this expansion, JetBlue is offering its largest ever schedule from Fort Lauderdale, ensuring customers continue to have access to the destinations they rely on, whether traveling for leisure, business, or visiting friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>\nJetBlue expects to operate nearly 130 daily departures from Fort Lauderdale this summer, marking the largest operation in the airline\u2019s history from the airport &#8211; over 75% more daily flights than 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSouth Florida is a key market for JetBlue, and we recognize this is a challenging moment for many travelers,\u201d said Geraghty. \u201cOur focus is on stepping up in the near term by adding service, maintaining connectivity, and keeping fares competitive, so customers can continue to travel with confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nWith this announcement, the airline will launch the following new JetBlue cities with nonstop service to Fort Lauderdale:<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>New City<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Flights per day:<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Start Date<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nBarranquilla, Colombia (BAQ)<i>2<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n1x Daily<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nOctober 1, 2026<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nBaltimore (BWI)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n3x Daily<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nJuly 9, 2026<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nCali, Colombia (CLO)<i>2<\/i><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n1x Daily<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\" \/>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nOctober 15, 2026<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwpadl0\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nCharlotte, N.C.

The addition of 27 flights represents a meaningful increase in flying that leverages JetBlue\u2019s existing scale, crews, and infrastructure in South Florida.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe growth reflects JetBlue\u2019s broader network strategy and its ability to responsibly add flying where demand exists and where the airline can operate reliably. The expanded schedule also supports JetBlue\u2019s JetForward strategy, which centers on building the best East Coast leisure network with Fort Lauderdale as a key gateway.<\/p>\n<p>\nCapped fares are available starting May 1, 2026.
