Jet Blue near deal to come to BDL, compete with SW

"JetBlue Airways and Bradley International Airport are close to announcing the discount carrier's plans to start flying from Connecticut, most likely to and from Florida or San Juan, Puerto Rico, according to a source familiar with the plan."
"That could put JetBlue in competition with any of several different airlines already operating at Bradley -- including rival discount carrier Southwest. The source did not know how many flights a day Jet Blue is likely to offer or when they would begin."

Unless Jetblue goes BDL to BWI, I dont see them as competition for WN. Only on a few select routes, FLL or MCO maybe. Not enough to be an impact.
