JetBlue to open crew base in San Juan, Puerto Rico
JetBlue Wednesday announced plans to open a pilot and flight attendant crew base at Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Puerto Rico, underscoring the airline’s commitment to growth and investment in the island.
This news comes after the airline recently announced plans to expand service from San Juan to more U.S., Caribbean and Latin American destinations.
The new crew base is expected to open in late 2024, providing more than 400 jobs to San Juan by 2025.

Currently, JetBlue employs over 370 crewmembers across Puerto Rico, supporting the airline’s operations in San Juan, Aguadilla, and Ponce.
“We’re so excited to base hundreds more crewmembers right here in San Juan, where we are proud to be the largest airline with plans to grow even more,” said Warren Christie, JetBlue’s chief operating officer.
JetBlue crew bases include Boston, Fort Lauderdale, Newark, New York City, Orlando, and Los Angeles. In 2020, JetBlue added a maintenance base in San Juan for its technicians to provide aircraft maintenance and related services.
