JetBlue....ACK?

Heard a rumor that they are planning on flying into Nantucket, MA. this summer with the E190's......Anyone else heard this?!?!?

 

[Longhorn]

Nope, have not heard that

You could fill a widebody, in on Friday and out on Monday, in Nantucket in the summer. Great place.

Heard the rumor from TSA there. They said there was a meeting, and JetBlue wants to run twice daily service into JFK.

Taxiways around the ramp areas are kinda narrow. I dont know how the 190s would be able to do it. It feels like a 50 seat RJ is about as big as it can get. But maybe the smurfs got mad taxi skillz.

There is something in the works with Cape Air - sort of a "codeshare-light", but that is old news. I don't know if that is where this rumor sprouted from.

No loco people in ACK please. Property values need to go up, not down.

Continental used to run an MD-80 to ACK, so I don't think the 190 will have a problem.

The Mellon family used to fly a 727 in there.

ATA still brings 727 charters in there every summer....and John Kerry brought his 757 there a few times while campaigning.
