JetBlue announced they’ll be launching a daytime New York (JFK) to London Heathrow (LHR) flight starting March 25, 2023. This will be JetBlue’s second daily flight on this route, complementing its existing evening departure.

JetBlue also flies daily between New York (JFK) and London Gatwick Airport, for a total of three daily flights between NYC and London in addition to two daily flights between Boston and London.

Per JetBlue Airways,

JetBlue announced it is further enhancing its flying across the North Atlantic with a new daytime flight option for customers traveling from New York to London. Starting March 25, 2023, New York’s Hometown Airline will introduce a new morning departure from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to London Heathrow Airport (LHR), giving travelers the all-new option to arrive in the United Kingdom the same day they depart the United States.

The new flight is made possible through an additional pair of slots obtained by JetBlue, which further boosts the airline’s presence at the U.K.’s busiest airport. Seats for JetBlue’s new Heathrow flights are on sale starting today.

It’s great to see JetBlue offer a daytime flight from New York to London, as most US-Europe departures are redeye flights. With inflight WiFi, those travelers can stay connected and work during the flight and arrive into London in the evening, making it easier to adjust to the time difference.
