JetBlue to offer flights from Milwaukee to East Coast

MILWAUKEE (AP) - JetBlue Airways is preparing to offer flights from Milwaukee to the East Coast next year.

The airline plans to offer nonstop flights from Mitchell International Airport to Boston Logan International Airport and John F. Kennedy Airport in New York beginning in the second quarter of 2022, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Mitchell International Airport Director Brian Danzik said the new routes also will allow for easy connections to other destinations from Boston and New York. He said the airline has connecting hubs in both cities.

JetBlue will be the only airline serving JFK from Milwaukee. Delta Air Lines flies from Milwaukee to Boston and New York La Guardia. United Airlines flies nonstop from Milwaukee to Newark, New Jersey.
