JetBlue to Launch Daily Nonstop Flights from Philadelphia to Puerto Rico
Starting March 26, JetBlue will begin offering daily nonstop flights between the Philadelphia International Airport and San Juan's Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport. This new route marks an expansion of direct service to five cities in Puerto Rico for the airline, including Philadelphia.
The added route increases the number of nonstop destinations out of San Juan to 22, surpassing any other airline. As part of this growth, JetBlue will also launch direct flights from San Juan to Buffalo, Richmond, Norfolk, and Jacksonville in the spring. These routes are expected to further boost travel between Puerto Rico and the US mainland.
According to Jenniffer González-Colón, Governor of Puerto Rico, "The expansion of these routes opens the door for more travelers from the United States to discover the richness and charm of our Island, while providing Puerto Ricans with more options to visit, reconnect with their loved ones, and contribute to our local economy." The airline's efforts aim to promote economic development and increase visibility for the island.
While JetBlue is not the only carrier offering nonstop flights from Philadelphia to San Juan, it marks a significant growth for the airline in Puerto Rico. Frontier and Spirit already operate direct flights out of Philadelphia International Airport, while American Airlines also offers this route.
JetBlue has introduced limited-time discounted fares to celebrate the launch of these new routes. Philadelphia travelers who book tickets by Friday can secure one-way flights departing on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Saturdays between April 7 and May 20 for as low as $99. However, it's essential to note that airfare is subject to certain stipulations.

... like, philly to puerto rico ain't exactly the most popular combo flights from Philly. idk how many people r actually gonna be flockin' to PR from philly on a daily basis 
. and isnt puerto rico still dealin with some major economic issues? i mean, dont get me wrong, its great they're tryin to boost tourism, but can't we talk about the bigger picture for a sec? 
THE FACT THAT THEY'RE OFFERING LIMITED-TIME DISCOUNTED FARES IS A BONUS!!! 
YOU CAN GET A ONE-WAY TICKET FOR AS LOW AS $99 ON TUESDAYS, WEDNESDAYS, OR SATURDAYS BETWEEN APRIL 7 AND MAY 20... WHAT A DEAL! 
IT'S GOING TO BE GREAT FOR THE LOCAL ECONOMY TOO, I'M SURE.
I've been wanting to visit Puerto Rico for ages, and now it seems more accessible than ever! 
22 nonstop destinations out of San Juan is insane... JetBlue should totes get some props for this move 
. Can't wait to try those limited-time discounted fares, $99 sounds like a steal! 
Anyone know if they'll be offering any loyalty rewards or discounts for repeat customers?
Can't wait to try out those discounted fares and explore all the amazing things Puerto Rico has to offer 
! like, who doesn't love the island vibe? and $99 is a great deal 
and it's awesome that they're making it more affordable for people to travel with limited-time discounted fares 
I'm sure it'll be busy with all the new routes they're launching too 
gotta say, PR's economy could use a boost so any airline that can help is a good thing 
Another thing, have you checked the fuel prices lately? Gasoline is going through the roof! 
. And to make matters worse, JetBlue thinks they can just start charging people $99 for a one-way ticket? 
Like, good luck with that, I'll believe it when I see it 
.
. The discounted fares are a great incentive for people to book those flights, especially with spring break coming up. I've already checked the prices and my sister is thinking of booking a trip in April 
. Can't wait to see all the amazing photos she'll be sharing from the beach! 
anyway, i'm all about that economic development & increased visibility for the island 
plus, who doesn't love a good $99 deal?
