U.S. markets recover from steep losses
SAN FRANCISCO, May 4 (UPI) -- JetBlue, the low-cost airline hoping to forget a chaotic February of storms and stranded passengers, has a new lease on life.
The stylish, 6-year-old carrier has just begun regular coast-to-coast flights from New York to San Francisco and founder David Neeleman hopes it will mean an end to the airline's tough times.
The New York-based JetBlue has been flying to the West Coast but not to SFO because of high fees. Those fees have been reduced and JetBlue is in.
Neeleman was on hand to promote the start of JetBlue's four-times-daily non-stop service between San Francisco International Airport and New York's JFK, and extol its expansion, its extra legroom and new customer bill of rights.
JetBlue is still trying to get over the February fiasco when hundreds of passengers were stranded on runways -- some without water, food or working toilets -- for up to 12 hours during a major East Coast storm.
