Back in November, I wrote about JetBlue’s plans to launch flights between Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP). Its first-ever nonstop flights are taking off today.
This isn’t just another seasonal Europe flight, it’s JetBlue stepping deeper into competition with legacy carriers on a major transatlantic corridor. For travelers across the Northeast, especially those flying out of Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), the new route introduces a compelling alternative to Delta, who also offers this route nonstop. JetBlue is entering the market with aggressive pricing that will hopefully keep fares low.
Introductory pricing start at just $349 one-way in Economy, while its premium Mint® (Business Class) cabin begins at $2,200 one-way. JetBlue will operate the route 1x daily on a seasonal basis through October 5th. Flights are operated using the airline’s Airbus A321 aircraft. These offer 16 Mint® and 143 Economy Class seats.
The new routes enhance JetBlue’s presence at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS). With this announcement, the airline will reach 77 nonstop destinations and serve nine European airports during the summer season. This follows the recent expansion of service from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport (MAD) and Edinburgh Airport (EDI).
The move underscores JetBlue’s commitment to offering travelers in New England more opportunities to explore Europe. The added routes will complement existing year-round service to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS), London Heathrow Airport (LHR), and Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), along with seasonal service to Dublin Airport (DUB), Edinburgh Airport (EDI), London Gatwick Airport (LGW), and Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport (MAD).
Anthony’s Take: By adding service to Milan, JetBlue continues to expand its reach across Europe. As the airline builds on its international growth, these routes reflect a strategic push to connect New England with some of the world’s most sought-after destinations. I still need to try Mint® and promise I will one of these days.
