The airline plans to open a dedicated Mint base for its in-flight crew in Fort Lauderdale by 2026, signaling long-term regional commitment.

This expansion is part of JetBlue’s JetForward strategy to strengthen its East Coast leisure network with competitive fares and reliable service. This reinforces Fort Lauderdale’s role as a gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean and emphasizes JetBlue’s prominence in South Florida.
