Jetblue schedule question

[joxer1014]

I am flying Jetblue for the first time in early October since SW really messed up their nonstop schedules. Since I am less than 30 days from departure, has anyone had their flights radically changed so close to their departure date? JBs schedule has their Sept flights from PHL to MCO only on certain days of the week while the October flights are right now showing every day. I would just like to know if they do this so close to departure since the alternative is a connecting flight through Puerto Rico. Thanks!

Our July JetBlue flights were cancelled by them with about a month's notice.

Flying Frontier. Our flights have changed 3 times since we booked 6 weeks ago... We depart next week. The latest change created a 10 hour layover and landing a day later just a couple of weeks ago. We called them today to change flights to something that actually worked with out park days. They did change it for us to something we wanted without a change fee since they were the ones that messed with it originally. So, that's good. We paid all of $37 each way from Utah for those flights, so I'm not complaining. lol

Had booked a non-stop Albany, NY to Orlando, FL the first week of October a couple of weeks ago. A week ago Jet Blue canceled the flight. No other flights to Orlando for 5 days (they only fly part time from Albany) so I booked on Southwest.

With Philly being a somewhat larger market and they just started non stops at PHL late spring, I'm hoping they dont fool around with our flights since SW did it to us about a month ago and is now a no go for us and I would hate to have to switch to AA since they dont block the middle seat anymore and just found out that Frontier is no longer blocking the middle seat either.

Jetblue got rid of our nonstop flight about 3 weeks before we were due to leave. I'm also out of Albany and they moved to only Sunday and Wednesday flights, so there was no real option with them to rebook. We generally have better luck with Southwest - even when flight schedules change there's usually a connecting flight with similar times still available.

Same with us, got an email about a week ago for our mid-Oct flights from newburgh, ny (small airport). They cancelled them, will have to go to Newark or Westchester. Looking every day for those Florida numbers to come down, so we don't have to quarantine on our return!

A couple of days ago Jet Blue cancelled my son's Albany-Orlando flight October 23. We rebooked on United (reasonable times and fares; unfortunately NOT nonstop).

we are 21 days out and hope they dont cancel anything this close! we have had so many changes between SW and JB that I can't even believe we are going soon!

We got a message from JetBlue on July 20 about our August 12 flight.

We had plans on 8/12 we didn't want to cancel (they offered us an 8 p.m. flight), so we opted to shift our trip by 3 days on either end since there were no direct flights the day before (those had already been canceled since we were originally on one of them, lol). JB really scales back about 3 weeks out I think. Originally when I booked it in June, JB had four non-stop options a day, but it was pared to about 3 or 4 non-stop options for the entire week by the time July 20 arrived.

Good luck, I hope yours goes smoothly!

(I"m currently sitting on pins and needles for an early November trip with United, and hoping for not too many drastic changes because it's a long weekend trip without flexibility, but it looks like they too are following a similar pattern, scaling down flights a few weeks out).

OT, but I just love Stewart! When I lived up there, I always tried to book from there

Good luck to everyone with upcoming flights! (and quarantine rules). Fingers crossed!
