JetBlue’s long-awaited plans for nonstop passenger service from Boston’s Logan Airport to London appears poised for announcement.
The airline’s new Airbus A321 Long Range aircraft will make a rare appearance in Boston on Tuesday, when the airline intends to announce launch details for its new service between Boston and the United Kingdom, WCVB reported.
The airline’s much-anticipated London-Boston route was originally slated to launch in 2021.
The new, low-cost routes, which will take off from Boston and New York, will be served by the Airbus A321LR single-aisle plane.
JetBlue recently acquired the necessary access to serve both London airports. JetBlue holds 116 air traffic movement slots allocated to Boston-Gatwick service, enough for 58 round trip flights. The Heathrow allocation is 310 slots, The Points Guy reported.
The Boston to London service was slated to be the first transatlantic routes offered by the airline, a plan that was stymied by the pandemic. Tuesday’s announcement will come approximately nine months after the airline launched its first flights across the pond from JFK Airport in New York City last August.
Already operating transcontinental flights between the Boston and London are: American Airlines, British Airways, Delta, Virgin Atlantic and United.
