Gale welcomed the expansion, noting it gives South Floridians “more convenient and cost-effective ways to visit these cities for business or leisure.” JetBlue’s customer experience remains a major draw, offering free high-speed Wi-Fi, seatback entertainment, complimentary snacks and drinks, and the premium Mint® experience on select routes. To celebrate the 113 daily departures, fares from FLL to any of JetBlue’s 46 nonstop destinations this fall start at $113 or less. Looking ahead, JetBlue plans to open a dedicated Mint base for inflight crewmembers in Fort Lauderdale in early 2026, further cementing the airport as a key hub and gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean.
