I heard that Jet Blue was picking up Turks and Caicos Island PLS as a destination in 2010. Now I'm on a mission to find out if it's true. Anyone????

Would not be surprising--especially if they get a subsidy to start. jetBlue's management is very happy with the airline's performance in the Caribbean and they have said on many occasions they will continue to increase service to the region.

How do you find out about rumors more new Caribbean routes for JFK-GDT/PLS or FLL-PLS/GDT. I am not sure for which specific routes will be choose.

Do you know when they will start up? Are these the only routes they will have? What about Boston?
Someone said they got the information from the CEO of Jet Blue, Im trying to find out if it's true. I'm also very excited about Jet Blue flying to T&C, giving some competition to AA, US
Thank You

N830MH isn't confirming anything; he is more questioning it as well and suggesting potential routes.

I haven't heard anything about new routes or stations (and I'm quite certain that I wouldn't in advance). That being said, jetBlue has made it pretty clear that they love the yields that they are seeing in the Caribbean market and they'll grow that where they can. They are faced with limited slots at JFK, especially through the construction next summer, so that won't help things out too much. There are also some fleet utilization issues based on the lack of new aircraft coming online for the next 5 quarters.

I wouldn't be surprised to see PLS added as a destination at all, even without a subsidy.

Makes great sense. These are perfect for B6: high-yield leisure routes they can serve with only 1x/freq a day.
