JetBlue Airways has expanded its Caribbean network by officially launching service from New York’s John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) and Argyle International Airport (SVD) in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the first flight arriving October 9, 2024. To celebrate the launch, JetBlue is offering limited time fares for $139.

“We are thrilled to welcome St. Vincent and the Grenadines—an enchanting destination known for its unspoiled nature, sky-blue waters and stunning landscapes—to our growing network and offer our customers even more travel options,” said David Jehn, vice president of network planning and airline partnerships at JetBlue. “This new service,” he added, “demonstrates our commitment to connecting our customers to in-demand vacation locations and introducing our award-winning service and low fares to new markets.”

"We are ecstatic to welcome JetBlue to our shores, marking a major step forward in our tourism development efforts,” said Honorable Carlos James, Minister of Tourism, Civil Aviation, Sustainable Development and Culture, St. Vincent and the Grenadines. “As we continue to enhance our tourism offerings and promote our beautiful islands as a premier destination, this partnership opens new opportunities for both leisure and business travelers.

He added, “The connection with New York is especially significant as it strengthens ties with our diaspora and provides more seamless travel options for those wishing to explore St. Vincent and the Grenadines."

St. Vincent and the Grenadines, comprised of 32 islands and cays, is known for its warm people, volcanic landscapes, black and white sand beaches and pristine sailing waters, representing a quintessential Caribbean paradise. Known as the ‘Critter Capital of the Caribbean’, this hidden gem offers a variety of activities including scuba diving, hiking, yachting, as well as whale, dolphin and turtle watching.

"This inaugural flight represents a milestone not only for our tourism industry but also for the entire country,” said Annette Mark, CEO of the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Tourism Authority. “JetBlue’s presence will help to boost our visibility as a competitive destination in the Caribbean. We are committed to creating memorable experiences for all visitors, and this new direct connection allows us to extend our warm Vincentian welcome to even more travelers.”

Josette Greaves, Chief Executive Officer at Argyle International Airport Inc. added, “The Argyle International Airport (AIA) is pleased to welcome JetBlue to our growing list of airline partners. As the gateway for residents, our diaspora, business, and leisure guests of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, AIA is committed to expanding travel options and enhancing connectivity with key destinations, including regional and domestic travel. This new partnership marks an exciting milestone in achieving our vision to deliver seamless travel experiences and world-class service for all our passengers as we continue contributing to the economic development of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.”
