JetBlue and Western European destinations?
 

Is it true that JetBlue will add European destinations to their routes in a near future?

With their A320's.... NO!
They might codeshare with someone, but that is about it.

It might be the codeshare. But, I think if its possible for them to do so, it might not be a bad Idea. Their inflight service is good for TransAtlantic flights, their bases are in the cities which have the most European travelers, ex: JFK and they can have less fleets and charge more. Just a personal opinion. but, I am not sure about A320.

Yes,

after the Aer Lingus alliance (not codeshare) we will pick some more former OneWorld members to do business with.

I dont see the problem with using 320's. People seem fine riding a 757 across the atlantic. Their cabins are basicaly the same

AirCanada uses the A319 to fly to London from St Johns. I do believe that only the 319 are certified for transatlantic though. I know the A321 is not certified for transatlantic flights.

JetBlue is a domestic Airline, which can easily meet International standards. Therefore if it can open its doors to Europe it will be nice.
Maybe they need to order less A320 and more A319. European customers will be added to their list. JetBlue is all about style and Europeans will embrace that.

Jetblue will do very well if they start making routes to Europe. Jetblue is a good domestic airline, and if they go international it will be only for the best. I don't see the problem riding A320's over the ocean either.

Well, the only problem that I see with running an A320 over the ocean ( with anyone in it ) is a lack of fuel. That is something that I really feel that I need while in flight. Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Style will only go so far. What we need is a plane with legs.

in my opinion, with the profitability of overseas routes, and the gates jb has at jfk and boston, it wouldnt suprise me at all to see jb get into that market......eventually.

Dont know what airplane they would use, but airbus does have some that would qualify.

Since I have zero 'bus time, would the the 320 have the requisite systems backup (HMG, RAT, etc) that would be required in MNPS airspace? If they had to fly the Blue Spruce routes, would there be the fuel? Can the 320 do 6 hours? Of course the 330 (common rating?) has all the requirements.
