JetBlue has announced that it will no longer operate flights from Charlotte Douglas International Airport to Boston Logan International Airport. The Charlotte Business Journal reported, this decision is part of the airline’s strategy to reallocate resources and focus on expanding its presence in other markets. Consequently, JetBlue will have no flights out of Charlotte and will cease operations at the airport entirely.
The departure marks an abrupt end to the 18-year relationship between the airline and the city. The New York-based airline, currently the 8th-largest in the U.S., cited underperformance and a failure to meet demand as reasons for their retreat from the Charlotte market, according to the Charlotte Business Journal.
