\u201cWe are thrilled to expand our partnership with Icelandair to offer our customers more options when traveling beyond Iceland,\u201d said Robin Hayes, chief executive officer, JetBlue. \u201cWith our recent launch of services to London\u2019s Heathrow and Gatwick airports, this expansion with Icelandair provides customers even more choice for travel across the Atlantic and the ability to enjoy a stopover in Iceland en route.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Icelandair Chief Executive Officer, Bogi Nils Bogason, said: \u201cThis year marks the ten-year anniversary of our successful partnership with JetBlue, where we have been able to offer great connections and enhanced comfort for our customers. The similarities between our business models and a strong focus on customer experience means that we can offer complementary service throughout our networks. We are very pleased to expand our partnership and offer travelers new options for connecting between the two airlines\u2019 networks.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
JetBlue’s current codes on Icelandair offer customers direct flights between New York\u2019s John F. Kennedy (JFK) Airport, Boston\u2019s Logan International Airport (BOS), Newark\u2019s Liberty International Airport (EWR) and Iceland\u2019s Keflavik International Airport (KEF) in the capital city of Reykjavik. As part of the codeshare expansion, the JetBlue \u201cB6\u201d code will initially be placed on seven of 24 European routes that Icelandair operates beyond Reykjavik. The plan is to add more in the near future. The initial routes are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS), Netherlands
Copenhagen Airport (CPH), Denmark
Glasgow Airport (GLA), United Kingdom
Helsinki Airport (HEL), Finland
Manchester Airport (MAN), United Kingdom
Oslo Airport (OSL), Norway
Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), Sweden<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Customers traveling on connecting flights between Icelandair and JetBlue will enjoy both combined ticketing and baggage transfers. Additionally, when customers fly Icelandair across the Atlantic, they can stop over in Iceland at no additional cost, selecting a stopover duration of one to seven days to pack more experiences into their travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iceland is a year-round destination with adventure waiting to happen every day. With its abundance of mountains, volcanoes, glaciers, rivers, lakes, caves and otherwise rough terrain waiting to be tackled, Iceland is truly an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise. But it is also a warm and welcoming place for travelers of all types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
JetBlue and Icelandair customers enjoy benefits across loyalty programs. Since 2017, customers have had the opportunity to accrue loyalty points from both JetBlue\u2019s TrueBlue program and Icelandair\u2019s Saga Club, and soon will have the ability to redeem points on either carriers\u2019 flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This expanded codeshare agreement builds upon JetBlue and Icelandair\u2019s partnership that first began in 2011. Icelandair passengers already benefit from access to a network that spans to 45 destinations in more than 15 countries around the world. This further strengthening of the partnership will allow JetBlue customers to enjoy additional travel options via Iceland\u2019s Keflavik International Airport, Icelandair\u2019s connecting hub.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
