29 May 2014 (Joint Release with JetBlue Airways) - SINGAPORE AND NEW YORK: Singapore Airlines, the world’s most awarded airline, and JetBlue Airways, New York’s Hometown Airline™, have filed an application with the U.S. Department of Transportation to enter into a bilateral codeshare agreement.
Singapore Airlines and JetBlue have been interline partners since 2011.

Flights will become available for sale pending regulatory approval.
Under the proposed codeshare, Singapore Airlines customers would have access to 16 destinations in the U.S., while JetBlue customers would have access to five new cities in Europe and Asia.
