NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 05/19/15 -- JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced plans for two new routes that will grow its presence in the Baltimore-Washington and Philadelphia metropolitan areas and continue its expansion in its focus cities in Orlando and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood.

Beginning November 12, JetBlue will operate new once daily service between Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) and Orlando International Airport (MCO) -- the same day JetBlue launches previously announced service between Baltimore and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood.

"No more cattle car boarding. Customers will love stepping on our flights knowing they have an assigned seat with the most legroom in coach*, all the brand name snacks they can eat, and live television to sit back and enjoy the ride without distraction. Whether traveling to Florida or continuing on to one of our many Latin American and Caribbean destinations, our award-winning service and friendly crewmembers will make JetBlue the best flight in town."
