JetBlue Extends Cape Air Partnership With Codeshare Deal

 | Sep 21, 2016 10:47PM ET

JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:JBLU) recently announced that it has signed a unilateral codeshare agreement with Hyannis, MA-based Cape Air, expanding its partnership with the latter.

Per this deal, JetBlue will be tagging Cape Air flights between certain destinations with its code “B6”. The agreement will be highly beneficial for customers as a single ticket can be used for flights operated by both airlines. Customers also stand to gain from ease of travel through options such as one-stop check-in and baggage transfer.

The agreement will cover Cape Air flights operating between Boston and San Juan, which are important cities for JetBlue, as well as Cape Air destinations across northeast and the Caribbean. The JetBlue code for Cape Air flights operating between Boston’s Logan International Airport and San Juan’s Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport are already available for booking on JetBlue’s website.

JetBlue and Cape Air have been collaborating since 2007. Some other initiatives between the two companies include University Gateway Program and interline ticketing, as mentioned by Cape Air’s President Linda Markham.
