Atlanta sometimes?

I would be eager to try JetBlue. Are there any plan to serve Atlanta at some point in the future?

That's a big market they have not tapped into.

I posted about this months ago. With the demise of Airtran, Atlanta is ripe for JetBlue to come back. There are a lot of people (like me) who REALLY don't want to have to go to Southwest or Delta. Southwest is not going to attract the same kind of passenger the way Airtran did.

Come back to Atlanta, JetBlue!

And, what kind of customers are those? Our loads in ATL have been more than satisfactory.

Yes, they were pulling out of ATL completely due to competition against DL/FL. They couldn't workout very well. It just only 6-month where B6 flies to ATL.
