The gate slots – the scheduled times that a plane can land or depart – will likely be distributed to competitors that have been on a waiting list to expand service from the airport.
to City Manager Patrick West, interim airport director Claudia Lewis said JetBlue Airways was warned that the airline is on pace to fall short of the minimum requirements imposed by the new rules.
JetBlue representatives, in response to Times inquiries, referred to an April 2018 press release in which the airline said it was “advancing its West Coast strategy” following its successful expansion of its luxury, business-class Mint service to San Diego, Las Vegas and Seattle over the past year. In September, JetBlue added new service to Boston from Hollywood Burbank Airport and expanded seasonal service from Palm Springs International Airport to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Before the council voted to adopt the rules, JetBlue’s associate general counsel objected to the new regulations, saying “such unjustified and unnecessary changes as the ones yet again proposed appear to be nothing more than punitive and discriminatory to JetBlue.”
