JetBlue & Cape Air
JetBlue Airways Corporation (Nasdaq: JBLU) announced it has entered into a marketing partnership with Cape Air, an airline based in Hyannis, MA, to provide easy connecting service beyond JetBlue’s Boston focus city to four new destinations served by Cape Air: Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, Provincetown, and Hyannis. Beginning March 19, 2007, JetBlue will place its code on flights operated by Cape Air, allowing customers to book travel on a single itinerary between the cape and islands and 20 JetBlue destinations that connect in Boston, including New York/JFK, Washington, DC/Dull, Pittsburgh, PA, Raleigh-Durham, NC, West Palm Beach, FL, Denver, CO, Seattle, WA, and San Francisco and Los Angeles/Long Beach, CA. JetBlue Airways is focused on creating a new airline category – an airline that offers value, service and style. Based in New York City, and now in its seventh year, the low-cost carrier currently serves 50 destinations with more than 500 flights daily.
“Together, JetBlue and Cape Air share a commitment to bringing humanity back to air travel, whether by entertaining you with DIRECTV® during your JetBlue flight, or by letting you just sit back and enjoy the spectacular views from the window of a Cape Air Cessna during your short hop to the cape and islands,” said JetBlue founder and CEO David Neeleman. “We are excited about a partnership between two great brands, JetBlue and Cape Air. Their dedication to quality service and now the increased ease of access to our region with one-stop booking will open tremendous opportunities for Cape Cod and the islands of Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard,” said Wendy Northcross, CEO of the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce & CVB.
