JetBlue Airways (New York) hasย announced plans to serve the New York (JFK) to Bridgetown, Barbados route with daily Airbus A321 service, adding up to 580 seats per week each way, starting on December 19, 2013.ย Additionally, JetBlue has filed to offer more capacity to Barbados during peak holiday times, including President’s Day and Easter, subject to receipt of government approval.
JetBlue expects to meet peak winter holiday demand by deploying brand new A321 aircraft on the route starting on December 19, 2013.ย These aircraft will be fresh from the Airbus factory and will not initially have LiveTV programming (television, movies or radio) available.ย As a new aircraft to the JetBlue fleet, the A321 must receive a supplemental type certificate from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) before JetBlue can install and activate the airline’s signature entertainment on all A321s.ย The certification timeline may be impacted by the partial U.S. government shut down.ย JetBlue anticipates offering LiveTV’s full suite of entertainment on the first A321 aircraft by April 2014.
