First the Charleston airport got discount airline Southwest, then word came it would get AirTran thanks to a merger with Southwest, and now things just got even better: JetBlue is coming.

But the airline seems to be only testing the waters, offering twice daily nonstop service to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and one daily flight to Boston’s Logan (BOS).

Flights are scheduled to start Thursday, February 28, 2013.

Now if only JetBlue (or Southwest) would make pit-stops at MYR on a two to seven day a week basis we might have cheaper flights in and out of town, until then a nice drive to Charleston doesn't seem too bad to save a few hundred bucks on a flight...
