JetBlue Is Adding More Flights From Fort Lauderdale to Kingston, Jamaica

The art. The history. The vibes. Travelers heading to Jamaica’s capital city will soon have more options.

Starting Dec. 4, JetBlue will significantly expand its service to Kingston’s Norman Manley International Airport, adding multiple new daily flights from Fort Lauderdale. The schedule will move to between two and three flights each day from FLL, ramping up to as many as six daily frequencies during peak holiday and summer travel periods.

The move represents one of JetBlue’s largest recent increases in Jamaica and comes as the airline continues to strengthen its position as a leading carrier to the Caribbean. Kingston, long recognized as the island’s cultural heartbeat and a growing hub for business and leisure travelers alike, has seen a steady rise in demand for airlift.

For visitors, the added frequencies mean more flexibility and better access during traditionally sold-out peak travel windows.

JetBlue has steadily expanded in the Caribbean since its founding, and Jamaica has always been a cornerstone of its regional network.

With Kingston’s increased flights, JetBlue will be better able to serve leisure travelers headed to explore the city’s music, food and history. It also provides stronger connectivity for travelers beyond Kingston, with easy onward journeys to destinations across the island.

The airline’s ramp-up also aligns with Jamaica’s broader tourism growth strategy. The country has been welcoming record visitor arrivals, and officials have emphasized the importance of increased airlift to meet the surge in demand. Kingston, in particular, has been attracting a new wave of visitors drawn to its vibrant arts scene, culinary offerings and proximity to the Blue Mountains.

For JetBlue, boosting Kingston frequencies bolsters its presence in one of the Caribbean’s most competitive markets and underscores its commitment to providing affordable, accessible service. Introductory fares are expected to remain competitive, while the increased number of seats should ease pressure on one of the region’s busiest routes.

Righ now, Fort Lauderdale-Kingston flights are costing around $401 roundtrip, according to Google Flights.
