The low-cost airline will begin offering nonstop flights from Boston to Charlotte (launching June 7), Dallas Fort-Worth (June 7), Los Angeles (July 5), Houston (August 9), and Phoenix (August 9).
For international travelers, JetBlue also announced Tuesday that tickets are now on sale for flights from Boston to Amsterdam, which start September 20. Roundtrip fares start at $445.
