JetBlue to Begin Nonstop Service from Bradley International Airport to New York City

The Connecticut Airport Authority is pleased to announce that JetBlue will be launching nonstop service between Bradley International Airport (BDL) and John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Flights will begin on April 30, 2025, and will operate daily, year-round.

“We are excited for JetBlue’s continued growth at Bradley International Airport,” said Kevin A. Dillon, A.A.E., Executive Director of the Connecticut Airport Authority. “Their new service to JFK will not only quickly connect our passengers with New York City, it will also facilitate easy access to JetBlue’s domestic and international network.”

Today’s announcement builds on JetBlue’s ongoing expansion in Connecticut, which has resulted in an increase of 35 additional weekly flights between Bradley International Airport and the airline’s Florida destinations this winter. Additionally, in summer 2025, JetBlue will offer 30% more seats from Bradley International Airport than last summer.

"JetBlue is proud to announce new service between Hartford and New York’s JFK,” said David Jehn, Vice President of Network Planning and Airline Partnerships at JetBlue. “This route underscores our commitment to providing customers in Connecticut with seamless access to the extensive network we serve from our New York focus city. Whether customers are traveling to New York for business or connecting to one of our many destinations across the U.S., Caribbean, and beyond, they’ll enjoy our low fares, award-winning service, and convenience.”

Now in its fifteenth year of operation at Bradley International Airport, JetBlue also flies from the airport to Fort Lauderdale (FLL), Fort Myers (RSW), Orlando (MCO), Tampa (TPA), West Palm Beach (PBI), San Juan (SJU), and Los Angeles (LAX).
