JetBlue has inaugurated a new seasonal daily connection between Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP), marking the debut of the US airline in Italy. This new route expands JetBlue’s transatlantic network from Boston, bringing the number of European destinations served during the summer season to nine.<\/p>\n
With this launch, JetBlue strengthens its position as the main leisure carrier of New England, offering customers direct access to Milan, a city globally renowned for fashion, design, and innovation, as well as facilitating access to Lake Como and the Italian Alps.<\/p>\n
The Boston-Milan route joins the year-round connections to Amsterdam, London Heathrow, and Paris, and the seasonal services to Barcelona, Dublin, Edinburgh, London Gatwick, and Madrid. This development follows the recent launch of the seasonal service to Barcelona, highlighting the strategic importance of Boston as a hub for transatlantic flights.<\/p>\n
Marty St. George, president of JetBlue, emphasized how Milan represents a key step in the airline’s expansion, offering customers quality service, thoughtful design, and excellent value.<\/p>\n
Locally, Aldo Schmid, Head of Aviation Business Development at SEA Aeroporti di Milano, highlighted the value of the new connection for the Milan market and for tourist and business flows between Italy and the United States, pointing out Boston as a strategic destination rich in economic, cultural, and academic opportunities.<\/p>\n
Raffaele Cattaneo, Undersecretary to the Presidency of the Lombardy Region with responsibility for International and European Relations, noted how this new route represents an opportunity to strengthen international relations and promote exchanges and investments between Lombardy and Massachusetts, a region known for its research centers and excellent academic institutions.<\/p>\n
