Adding this new flight will give travelers more options for visiting the famous Spice island.  Those in the north no longer have to connect to late night flights via Miami (on American Airlines) or through Atlanta (on Delta).  At the moment, Caribbean Airlines is currently offering non-stop flights between Grenada and JFK on Wednesdays and Saturdays, but JetBlue will bring more options to the table by offering non-stop flights on Sundays and Tuesdays.

The best part is, this Airbus 320 will fly from JFK's T5 terminal, JetBlue's NYC hub, and the airplane itself will offer 150 seats and include these famous JetBlue perks:

• Complimentary movies and satellite TV for traveler on screens embedded into every headrest 
• The 1st checked bag free for all travelers
• Unlimited complimentary snacks and drinks, including Dunkin Donuts coffee
• 100+ Channels of SiriusXM 
• Free "Simply Surf" wifi onboard

The Minister of Implementation in Grenada, the Honorable Alexandra Otway-Noel was quoted saying: "Grenada has seen remarkable growth in tourism thanks to a fresh marketing approach, an extraordinary new Sandals resort and a very resilient and committed tourism sector. Combine that with all the magnificent facets of our tri-island state and we have a winning formula. JetBlue is known to offer quality service and high standards, and is the perfect addition to our family. We are indeed very pleased to welcome the inaugural flight on June 11th to Pure Grenada, the Spice of the Caribbean."
