JetBlue has expanded its marketing partnership with Cape Air at Boston's Logan International Airport to include new codeshare service to Rutland, Vermont. Together JetBlue and Cape Air provide the only commercial airline service to Vermont's Killington Resort with low fares and convenient connections from across the country.

"JetBlue's service into Rutland provides another great opportunity for skiers to access the largest ski and snowboard resort in the eastern United States," said Dave Rathbun, director of sales and marketing for Killington Resort. "Combined with one of our Ski and Stay packages, skiers will enjoy exceptional value and the best conditions seen at Killington in over a decade."

Through the JetBlue-Cape Air alliance, JetBlue has placed its code on flights operated by Cape Air to/from the Rutland Southern Vermont Regional Airport, making it possible for customers to book travel on a single itinerary to Rutland from top domestic destinations that connect through JetBlue's Boston focus city including New York/JFK, Washington/Dulles, Pittsburgh, Fort Lauderdale and Orlando.

"Vermonters have been ardent supporters of JetBlue since we first launched low-fare service to their state in 2000. Today we're thrilled to be adding even more travel options for them through our partner Cape Air," said JetBlue CEO Dave Barger.

Skiers and riders can enjoy the best lodging and lift ticket value by purchasing a complete ski & stay package from the professionals at Killington Central Reservations -- "the local experts" -- representing 65 lodging properties throughout the Killington region.
