    JetBlue Cancels 215 Flights Due to Storm

    My Way News - JetBlue Cancels 215 Flights Due to Storm

    NEW YORK (AP) - JetBlue canceled 215 flights Friday because of a winter storm on the East Coast, aiming to avoid the days of cancellations and criticism that followed a storm last month, an airline spokesman said.

    The cancellations affected about one-third of all JetBlue flights. More than 200 of them involved flights to or from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, said airline spokesman Sebastian White.

    Other airlines also reported cancellations. American Airlines had canceled about 120 flights to or from New York and other Northeastern airports as of Friday morning, said spokeswoman Sonja Whitemon. Northwest Airlines canceled about 35 flights to or from the East Coast, all but a handful of them at Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark Liberty International, spokeswoman Tracy Carlson said.

    A few JetBlue flights also were affected at LaGuardia, Newark and Boston's Logan International Airport, White said. In addition, the airline had canceled 15 flights Thursday night, he said.

    Delta Air Lines canceled about 250 flights in the Northeast, from Washington to Boston, spokeswoman Gina Laughlin said. The heaviest concentration was at Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark, she said....

    Don't even get me started with Jet Blue.....I don't know what's going on with my used-to-be favorite airline. But, lately, it seems they are falling apart. Not only are they keeping passengers held hostage both on their planes, and in the airport, but they seem to be having quite a bit of mechanical problems lately. I have heard, and experienced some real horror stories, in the past few months.

    BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

          My parents' flight tomorrow JFK-Nashville was cancelled, but they were put on the Sun AM flight without any difficulties. The customer service was good when I called from CA and got a rep in Salt Lake City. From NYC, they were unable to get through the phone lines at Jetblue.

            Better to cancel than sit on the tarmack for 12 hours

              The local NYC news reported Jet Blue had a good day today, almost no cancellation or delays.
