JetBlue to Launch Daily Nonstop Houston–NYC Flights

JetBlue Airways has unveiled plans to reintroduce nonstop service between Houston’s George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), with flights set to begin May 21, 2026.

The airline said the new schedule will include two daily round-trip flights, offering both morning and afternoon departure options for travelers. The expanded service aims to cater to a range of trip types, from same-day business travel to longer stays and convenient connections across JetBlue’s broader network.

The route joins JetBlue’s existing once-daily service from Houston to Boston Logan International Airport, enhancing connectivity between Texas and major Northeast hubs.

Passengers on the Houston–New York flights can expect JetBlue’s signature on-board experience, including free unlimited Fly-Fi Wi-Fi, seatback entertainment at every seat and complimentary snacks and drinks.

Flight schedules between the two cities have been released, with the first daily departure from JFK early in the morning and a second in the early afternoon, returning from Houston later in the day.

Tickets for the new nonstop service are now available for booking through the airline’s website and mobile app, giving travelers more options for flexible and efficient air travel between two of the United States’ busiest markets.
