JetBlue cuts prices to help Hurricane Irma evacuees

NEW YORK — Big airlines are slashing prices to help people flee Florida before Hurricane Irma hits.

JetBlue said Wednesday it’s “offering any remaining seats in select markets” at reduced fares of between $99 and $159, including taxes.

American Airlines, which has a major hub in Miami, said it has capped the price of main cabin seats on single leg flights at $99.

Delta announced it won’t charge more than $399 for tickets on all flights to and from southern Florida and the Caribbean. That price cap will apply to all seats, including first class.

American said Wednesday that most of the flights out of the area were now sold out, but the company was working to add more. Delta said it had seats available, but it doesn’t fly to many locations out of southern Florida.
