JetBlue Airways will stop operating at Miami International Airport (MIA) from September 3, and the airline confirmed on Saturday, June 21, which quoted poor financial performance on the route.
“To free aircraft for new routes, we have recently decided to end a small number of non -profit flights, including Boston and Miami,” said Dombrowski, director of Jetblue for corporate communication, in -mail Miami Herald.
Limited services end services, offered compensation
Jetblue had a relatively small track in Mia and operated only one or two days between Miami and Boston.
Despite the limited service, the airline stated that its decision to leave the airport was based purely on financial performance.
“Travelers booked on canceled years will have the opportunity to fly through Fort Lauderdale or get a full replacement for their original form of payment,” Dombrowski added.
Realication of Resources
This step comes when Jetblue seems to optimize its network and improve financial performance by redistributing aircraft to more lucrative routes.
“We are constantly evaluating how our network is done and changes as needed,” Dombrowski said.
Mia announced on Friday
Greg Chin, Director of Communication for the Ministry of Aviation Miami-Dade, confirmed that JetBlue announced on Friday the International Airport Miami International Airport. During a phone call with Miami Herald on Saturday he refused to provide more details.
The service continues at nearby airports
Although Jetblue is pulled out of Mia, it will maintain services between Boston and two nearby airports at the South Florida-Mesidential Airport Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood and West Palm Beach.
