JSX, a semi-private charter operator, is launching daily flights from Hanscom Field in Bedford, Massachusetts, to New York and Miami starting in February. The service targets business travelers seeking a ‘hop-on’ jet experience with business-class legroom, reduced terminal crowding, and lower hassle at competitive prices. One-way fares from Boston to New York start at $199, while Miami flights begin at $599.
The New York route will operate up to four times daily, though the specific airport remains undisclosed. Miami service will run seasonally, Thursday through Monday. JSX, now operating from 29 U.S. and Mexico airports, has grown rapidly over the past decade, drawing criticism from traditional airlines over regulatory loopholes.
The Biden administration has moved to tighten regulations on public charters. United Airlines, JetBlue, and Qatar Airways have invested in the company. Flights are open to free membership with no minimum usage requirements.
