They currently already served to LGB, OAK, LGA, JFK, EWR, IAD & BOS. What about another announces more new routes possibly to BUR, PHX, LAS, MSY, SYR, BUF, ROC.

Looks like Jet Blue has (or now maybe 'had') eyes on Dallas Love field:
Jet Blue and NW lobby against Dallas Love Deal |
Dallas Love Field is very limited by the Wright Act. Correct me if I'm wrong but the service from Love Field is limited to Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Lousiana, and Missouri. There is a huge battle in Washington on where or not to repeal the act or not. WN and AA are leading the ways on their own respective sides. AA loves their monoply at DFW and WN wants to blow things open at Love Field. Unless B6 can start flying to LGB, JFK, or Florida, it will remain untouch. Right now, the better option for Jetblue is DFW. There are gates availible and the flights from all the NYC airports on CO and AA are always full or near capacity.

How has this since changed with those whole Wright Act? Someone please correct me if I'm wrong or post some info on this! Why wouldn't jetBlue be able to fly DAL-JFK if AA used to fly DAL-LGA?

Actually, it is true. The Wright Amendment has a loophole for aircraft with less than 57 seats being exempt from the interstate restriction. Legend started up service from Love Field with reconfigured planes with 56 seats. They operated from 1996 to 2000. American quickly followed suit with their own all first class configured planes with you guessed it...56 seats. Of course, after Legend died, so did the American all first class configurations.

I've had the most outrageous experiences with any company of which I have been a customer (in any category, whether airline or otherwise) with AA. |

He flew all of his flights out of DFW, but wanted to try DAL once so he flew DAL-LGA nonstop on AA's F100. So, this was about 4.5 years ago. Maybe someone at AA can verify...if not, I'll ask on the AA forum soon.

I would LOVE for JetBlue to come to Dallas. I'd use them instead of AA on all routes where JetBlue flew to the same place. |

I've never flown JetBlue so I don't know how many seats their planes have but if they are 56 or less, JetBlue can fly from DAL without issue. American litigated Legend to death for the right to do this.

Once the old TWA terminal at JFK opens up, I think you will see alot more JetBlue Carribean, and Domestic destinations pop up. Who knows, with Dallas being such a big "drawl", why not have flights into BOTH airports? If it works for the LA area, why not in Dallas?
