DALLAS — JetBlue (B6) has announced two additional flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Curaçao International Airport (CUR). Flight service will begin on April 6, 2023, increasing the nonstop route from three to five days a week.
The Caribbean nonstop frequency bump arrives as a result of the growing demand from the U.S. market along with the partnership between B6 and the island stakeholders.
"As of November, total US arrivals exceeded our goals, achieving 152% of our target visitors out of the US market and we are confident this upcoming year will continue on that path. These additional flights are a testament to that," said Ruisandro Cijntje, Curaçao’s Minister of Economic Development, regarding the new flight additions.
