Skift Take
Expect reduced service and competition on a couple of dozen major routes and for regional and smaller airports when American Airlines emerges from bankruptcy and inevitably merges with US Airways or another airline.
There will be no Congressional hearings, airline boycotts or much fuss now that JetBlue brass met with Vermont officials and confirmed that the airline plans to end in late November its only nonstop flight from Burlington Airport to Orlando.
JetBlue, which had operated the flight for several years, will continue to fly from Burlington to New York City airports, and from there customers can catch connecting flights to Orlando and under-served Florida airports.
