JetBlue Airways Corporation, stylised as JetBlue, is a major American airline low cost passenger carrier, and the sixth largest in the United States by passengers carried.
“From my understanding, they received the aircraft late, so it is pushed back a bit. They were supposed to start in November and they are still pushing [towards the launch of operations in Guyana],” Minister Patterson explained.
