JetBlue is adding a major new travel option for Northeast Florida in 2026. Nonstop flights from Jacksonville International Airport to San Juan, Puerto Rico, will begin March 13. The new route expands JetBlue’s Caribbean service and restores a full-time connection Jacksonville hasn’t had in more than a decade.

JetBlue is running its largest Travel Tuesday sale ever, offering up to 35% discounts on flights if you travel by March 11, 2026. You need to be quick to take advantage of this sale, however, as it’s only available

The two new routes bring to seven the number of European destinations JetBlue flies to, including London, Paris, Amsterdam, Dublin, and Edinburgh.

The Air Force refueling tanker was flying without its location transponder activated and could not be detected by air traffic control.

South Florida airports have expanded their flight offerings this year, with airlines adding domestic and international routes primarily across Central America, the Caribbean and Italy. Avianca, Arajet, JetBlue, Spirit, Frontier, and American Airlines have all announced new routes.

The celebration continued with festivities until 1:19 p.m., when boarding began for Flight 1716's 1:49 p.m. flight back to JFK.
