According to JetBlueBestFareFinder, here are the number of unreserved seats for the next three days:
To Orlando (flight 1887): 16-22-18=56
From Orlando (flight 1888): 13-19-33=65
To Ft. Lauderdale (flight 2019): 43-8-53=104
From Ft. Lauderdale (flight 2020): 12-15-37=64
Based on 1200 available seats, this equates to a load factor of 75.92%. This time of year is the “no-man’s land” period because it’s between the busy travel periods of summer vacation when families are travelling around and the peak winter travel for travel between New England and Florida. When we get into early November expect a rebound in load factors. It doesn’t seem as if ORH will be seeing any additional service strating this winter. However, if we get enough advance bookings to MCO and FLL during the winter it isn’t out of the realm of possibility that JetBlue sends in their 150-seat Airbus A320s during the wintertime.
Remember that on October 26th the new schedule becomes effective at Worcester Airport. Read this post for details.
