Some JetBlue flights to and from Kingston cancelled amid US winter storm

Several JetBlue flights in and out of Norman Manley International Airport (NMIA) have been cancelled from Sunday through Tuesday due to a winter storm affecting parts of the United States, airport operator PAC Kingston Airport Limited (PACKAL) says.

In a late Saturday update, PACKAL said the cancellations include multiple flights between Kingston and New York’s John F Kennedy International Airport, both inbound and outbound.

Additional JetBlue flights between Kingston, New York, and Fort Lauderdale have also been cancelled for Monday, while a flight from Fort Lauderdale to Kingston has been cancelled for Tuesday.

“Passengers are urged to contact JetBlue for updates on flight schedules prior to going to the airport and for rebooking,” PACKAL said in a media statement.

The airport operator advised travellers to monitor official channels for further updates as weather conditions continue to affect air travel.

The announcement comes amid wider disruptions across Jamaica’s airports, as operators of Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay have also confirmed cancellations and delays extending into Monday.
