It’s 26 degrees in Connecticut on Thursday morning, but it’s 75 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and there is now another way to get there from Bradley International Airport.
JetBlue Airways is launching nonstop service on Thursday between Bradley and San Juan's Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport.
“With Connecticut’s special ties to Puerto Rico, I am confident that this non-stop service to San Juan will add another chapter to JetBlue’s success story in our state,” Mary Ellen Jones, Chair of the Connecticut Airport Authority, said in a news release.
One flight leaves Bradley at 7:30 a.m. and arrives in San Juan at 12:28 p.m.
The other leaves San Juan at 6:45 p.m. and arrives at Bradley at 9:48 p.m., but it could vary slightly during the first two weeks of service.
The price of flights purchased through Jan. 13 on JetBlue’s Web site are as low as $139 each way for travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays between Jan. 19 and Feb. 15, with a 14-day advance purchase, according to JetBlue.
The first-checked bag is free.
