BOSTON – JetBlue Airways has decided to discontinue its daily flights between Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and New York LaGuardia Airport (LGA), effective April 30, 2025.

With JetBlue exiting from this route, Delta Air Lines will further solidify its dominance on the BOS-LGA route, operating up to 15 daily flights as part of its shuttle service, with hourly departures from 6 AM to 8 PM.
Moreover, American Airlines (AA) also serves this route with up to four daily flights. For travelers seeking alternatives, Amtrak offers the Acela service between Boston and New York, with a journey time of approximately 3.5 hours, providing a comfortable and productive travel experience.
Despite this route discontinuation, JetBlue will continue to operate flights between Boston and New York JFK with up to four daily flights. This adjustment reflects the airline’s strategic focus on routes that align with its core business model and customer demand.
