JetBlue continues to tweak its route network and cut unprofitable routes as it looks to improve its ailing business. The latest cuts include leaving San José Mineta International Airport (SJC) entirely and dropping its Mint (Business Class) offering on flights to/from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA).

Here are some of the latest changes:
- New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to/from Miami International Airport (MIA) will be dropped after June 2025. Delta Air Lines and American Airlines will still serve this route. JetBlue will only fly between Miami International Airport (MIA) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) after this cut.
- Three other routes to/from New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK) are also being dropped. These include Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) (already removed). Delta and American will continue flying this route. Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) (ends on June 11th). No other airlines fly this route nonstop. Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) has also been already removed from the schedule.
- Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) to/from Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) (ends on April 19th)
- Westchester County Airport (HPN) to/from Charleston International Airport (CHS) (already removed)
- Several routes are being shifted from year round to seasonal service. These include Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to/from Grenada’s Maurice Bishop International Airport (GND) (1x weekly service ends for the season on April 26th) and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to/from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) (ends on July 7th for the season).
- JetBlue will end its Mint (Business Class) service on both its Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK) flights to/from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA). These routes will still fly, but without a premium cabin.
JetBlue is also making modifications to its transatlantic schedule. These include:
- New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to/from London Gatwick Airport (LGW) will not return next summer.
- New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to/from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) will see the second daily, seasonal flight not return.
Anthony’s Take: JetBlue is cutting its way and tweaking other operations to try to get its finances back on track. Now, we’ll wait and see where it redeploys the aircraft that were used on these routes.
