Ok...This is the last straw. JetBlue announced seasonal service to Nantucket this week. Where is the demand for jetBlue to fly to ACK? Doesn't US Airways cover the New York flights with service to LGA? Anyway, I would think that if JetBlue can launch service to ACK with confidence, then they can launch service to Daytona Beach with even more. The NYC market is wide open for JetBlue to swoop in and a zip code analysis done by DAB proves that NYC is the top destination for travelers. Plus, Atlanta is looking less popular by the day and that is mainly where you will connect if you fly from DAB. There is much more for jetBlue in DAB than ACK and all we need is two E190 flights per day to JFK. I feel like jetBlue is trying to torture me by witholding DAB service. (Thats a joke) As of May (United is pulling out in April probably due to competition with AirTran), there will be three airlines at DAB including one LCC (AirTran, Delta, and Continental Express). None of those airlines serve New York city on a regular basis. I think it is time for jetBlue to step up to bat and land in Daytona Beach. AirTran is doing great here with very strong bookings through March and many, many full airplanes. JetBlue should do just as well serving such a popular destination for DAB travelers.
