Soar into Spring Break: JetBlue Expands Fort Lauderdale Service with Select Routes for Spring Break and Patriots’ Day Travel

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU), Fort Lauderdale’s leading airline, today announced it is adding special spring break service starting in March at Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport (FLL). For a limited time, the airline will offer flights to six destinations the airline does not currently serve from FLL: Bozeman, Montana (BZN); Denver (DEN); Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW); Reno–Tahoe, Nevada (RNO); Salt Lake City (SLC); and Jacksonville, Florida (JAX).

Additionally, as the top leisure carrier in New England, JetBlue will add a special flight connecting Portland, Maine (PWM) with Fort Lauderdale five times a week from April 16, 2026 – April 27, 2026, for Patriots’ Day.

These select routes meet strong two-way travel demand during the peak spring period. As travelers of all ages head to South Florida for the sunshine and beaches, the added flights also give South Florida-based customers more opportunities to escape to top ski destinations, outdoor recreation areas, and adventure markets across the U.S.

Customers on these routes will enjoy the signature JetBlue experience, including fast, free, unlimited high-speed Fly-Fi ®, seatback entertainment at every seat, and complimentary name brand snacks and drinks.1 Flights are on sale now at jetblue.com.

“As we continue to grow our position as the leading carrier in Fort Lauderdale, we’re excited to bring even more destinations and flexibility to our customers during one of the busiest travel periods of the year,” said Dave Jehn, vice president, network planning and airline partnerships, JetBlue. “From spring break favorites to special Patriots’ Day flying, these routes are another example of how we’re responding to demand and creating more opportunities for travelers to enjoy the experience that sets JetBlue apart.”

Today, JetBlue is also beginning service on eight routes announced earlier this year. These include nonstop service to popular vacation destinations across Latin America and the Caribbean including Aruba; Cartagena, Colombia; Liberia, Costa Rica; Grand Cayman; St. Maarten; and San Pedro Sula, Honduras, as well as new domestic service to Norfolk and Tampa. The airline is also increasing flights on several popular existing routes from Fort Lauderdale, reaffirming its commitment to continued growth in South Florida.

Leading in Fort Lauderdale, Committed to South Florida

Fort Lauderdale was JetBlue’s very first destination, and more than 25 years later the airline continues to deepen its roots there. Now, JetBlue is FLL’s number one carrier, operating more departures on peak days than any other airline this winter and continuing to grow with strategic investments that benefit South Florida customers.

In 2025, JetBlue announced its largest-ever schedule in Fort Lauderdale with plans to reach 113 daily departures and serve 46 nonstop destinations this winter—including new service across Latin America, the Caribbean, and key U.S. cities. This long-term growth is matched by meaningful investments in the region, such as JetBlue’s upcoming dedicated Mint inflight crewmember base, opening in early 2026, and ongoing expansion that adds depth to the airline’s leadership position at FLL.

Today’s additional seasonal flying builds on that momentum. With more choices, more convenience, and more destinations from its South Florida focus city, JetBlue remains committed to strengthening its presence at FLL and delivering the comfort, quality, and value customers expect from JetBlue.
