JetBlue Airways Corporation launched its new daily summer-seasonal service between Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and Milano Malpensa Airport (MXP), marking the airline?s first-ever service to Italy. The new route expands JetBlue?s transatlantic network from Boston and reinforces the airline?s position as New England's leisure airline, while also strengthening convenient connections for customers traveling across JetBlue?s broader network. With the start of service to Milan, JetBlue now offers customers nine daily nonstop destinations from Boston to Europe during the summer season, complementing existing year-round service to Amsterdam, London-Heathrow and Paris, as well as seasonal flights to Barcelona, Dublin, Edinburgh, London-Gatwick and Madrid.

The new route builds on JetBlue?s continued investment in Boston, coming just weeks after the airline launched new seasonal service to Barcelona, Spain, and further strengthens Boston?s role as a connecting hub. JetBlue continues to build Boston into a transatlantic gateway, offering customers throughout New England more ways to reach Europe with competitive fares and a high-quality onboard experience. Following the launch of service from Boston to Madrid and Edinburgh last year, and Barcelona earlier this spring, Milan now becomes the newest addition to JetBlue?s European map from Logan.

The Milan route also makes it easier for customers across the U.S. to reach one of Europe?s most celebrated cities. Known globally for fashion, design and innovation, Milan offers visitors iconic attractions along with easy access to Lake Como and the Italian Alps. And for customers starting in Italy, Boston opens the door to destinations across JetBlue?s network.

JetBlue offers extensive service from Logan to popular destinations across Florida, California and the Caribbean; or visitors can stay and experience one of America?s most historic cities. By linking these two cities, both hubs for innovation, education, sports, art and culture, JetBlue is creating new opportunities for customers on both sides of the Atlantic to discover dynamic destinations connected by global influence and local character. Flights to Milan operate on JetBlue?s A321 aircraft.

These aircraft feature JetBlue?s Mint premium experience, with fully lie-flat private suites and restaurant-style small plates curated by New York City restaurants. EvenMore customers enjoy new benefits such as dedicated overhead bin space, complimentary alcoholic beverages, a premium snack, and complimentary headphones upon request, in addition to the benefits they already know and love including extra legroom, priority security at select airports and early boarding. The airline?s core experience offers a new level of service to customers who generally fly ?coach?

but still want a great experience at an attractive fare. Core customers enjoy a world-class experience no matter where they sit with a free selection of brand-name snacks, soft drinks, coffee, tea, beer, wine and liquor and a complimentary meal from JetBlue?s culinary partner, Dig Inn. Customers in core, EvenMore and Mint stay connected throughout the flight with fast, free and unlimited high-speed Fly-Fi and can enjoy a selection of inflight entertainment on seatback screens at every seat.

Limited one-way introductory fares are available starting at $399 in core, $649 in EvenMore and $2199 in Mint for Boston-originating travelers, and from ?449 in core, ?659 in EvenMore and ?1799 in Mint for Milan-originating travelers. Fares are available for a limited time.
