“Whether you go for the white sand beaches, world-class diving, flagship resorts, or rich history, we know you will want to return again and again,” adds Clark.
“Grenada has seen remarkable growth in tourism thanks to a fresh marketing approach, an extraordinary new Sandals resort and a very resilient and committed tourism sector,” says the Honorable Alexandra Otway-Noel, minister of implementation for the Government of Grenada .
JetBlue will serve the route with its Airbus A320 jets, each of which has 150 seats for now. It is planning to add another 15 seats per aircraft to each existing A320 in its fleet and outfit each of the new A320s it has on order with 165 seats before delivery.
