Featured International Destination:

Prague, Czech Republic

Connect to European summer destinations via our NONSTOP Paris Flight beginning April 27!

Prague has always loved music, and musicians have always loved Prague. 2014 is a gift to music lovers from far and wide: Thanks to several Czech music anniversaries celebrated this year (Dvoř�k, Smetana and Jan�ček, as well as the Prague Symphony Orchestra), 2014 has been declared the Year of Czech Music, with classical superstars Sir Simon Rattle and Magdalena Kozen� as Artistic Patrons and Maestro Jiř� Bělohl�vek as honorary President.Whether you are a seasoned music aficionado or casual listener, in 2014 you are certain to find a music event or ten to suit your tastes. Hearing a work of music in Prague, be it a favorite opera in the same theatre where it premiered, an experimental jazz piece at one of Prague's new jazz clubs, or a band of street musicians on Charles Bridge, the city is as much a part of the experience as the music itself

Music to your ears: 2014 is 'Year of Czech Music'

"The Venice of America"

JetBlue Airways will launch new NONSTOP service from PIT to Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) beginning October 29, 2014.

The new connection to Florida will benefit business and leisure travelers alike, and gives our region one more option for convenient travel. PIT is also planning to offer discounted parking for customers who fly from PIT to Ft. Lauderdale NONSTOP. "With the introduction of this service, customers will not only save time, but also save money as this is traditionally a high-fare route. Besides access to South Florida, this will also meet the great demand for travel onward to the Caribbean and Latin America, and to popular cruise destinations," said Robin Hayes, JetBlue's President. JetBlue currently operates 26 nonstop routes out of Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood and new nonstop routes from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood to Montego Bay (Jamaica), Port of Spain (Trinidad and Tobago) and Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) to start soon.
