JetBlue to Launch Nonstop Service Between Rochester and Orlando

New route expands JetBlue’s commitment to Upstate New York with more choices for leisure travel to Florida

To celebrate the launch, special introductory one-way fares available from $49

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced it is further strengthening its presence in Upstate New York with year-round nonstop service between Greater Rochester International Airport (ROC) and Orlando International Airport (MCO). The route will begin March 26, 2026, and operate five times weekly, offering more convenience and choice for customers traveling between Western New York and Central Florida.

“JetBlue is proud to grow in Rochester, bringing our low fares and award-winning customer experience to more travelers,” said Dave Jehn, JetBlue’s vice president, network planning and airline partnerships. “Orlando is one of the most popular destinations for Upstate New Yorkers, and this new route gives customers an easy way to get to the sunshine, theme parks, and all the attractions Central Florida has to offer.”

As New York’s Hometown Airline®, JetBlue continues to deepen its roots across the Empire State, with this new service building on the airline’s long-term commitment to Upstate New York. JetBlue has proudly served Rochester since 2000, offering convenient flights to its New York City focus city. With this latest addition, JetBlue will now fly from eight Empire State airports to Orlando, more than any other carrier, further strengthening its position as the airline of choice for New Yorkers looking for great service at attractive fares.

“Rochester-Finger Lakes residents should prepare for takeoff because JetBlue is bringing back flights between Orlando and the Greater Rochester International Airport! This new connection to sunny Orlando will help our local economy take off and provide residents with more destinations to warmer climates as winter approaches,” said U.S. Senator Charles Schumer of New York. “I have long urged JetBlue to add even more routes in Upstate New York and I am very pleased to welcome this one.”

JetBlue’s award-winning experience includes free high-speed Wi-Fi known as Fly-Fi® on every aircraft, live television seatback entertainment at every seat, complimentary snacks and drinks, and the airline’s widely recognized customer service.1

To celebrate the route, JetBlue is offering introductory fares starting at $49 one-way, available only on jetblue.com.2
