On the 16th, JetBlue applied to the DOT for approval for two more routes out of Cancun.

First is Saturday-only service out of Washington Dulles using an A320. I guess that fits as the airline is adding more “touristy” destinations out of that airport in December (Ft. Myers, San Juan, and West Palm Beach). The second route is a daily flight from Tampa using the E190.

JetBlue already flies to Cancun from Boston, New York (JFK), and Orlando.
