JetBlue Airlines announced a shift of focus to leisure routes in light of its merger with Spirit Airlines getting denied in court.

The company sent a memo obtained by CNBC to employees Friday announcing more flights to the Caribbean and Paris, which is one of its three trans-Atlantic routes. JetBlue announced its first trans-Atlantic route to England’s London Heathrow airport in 2021.
