Our friends flew out yesterday on the afternoon AA flight to MIA and said they used the ramps instead of the stairs to board. Hope it's that way on this Saturday. I'll let you know if it is. Big difference in the number of plane movements on a Tuesday vs Saturday.

Thanks for that info. We're on Delta next month, coming in on a Wednesday, so maybe there is hope for me.

Ramps. It will be a long, long time before you see any jetways.

Ramps. It will be a long, long time before you see any jetways. That’s what I thought. Every flight I have taken on Jetblue has had a ramp next to the stairs at the first door, just not the second.

Jet Blue appears to have them, and no one else, prior to this report.

Exactly, and for those not very mobile, MUCH easier to navigate than having to climb up and down stairs.

For what it’s worth, when we arrived on an AA n/s in mid April we deplaned via the roll-up stairs - you know - the ones that give those of us with height issues tremors due to their height and steepness.
When we departed the island in early May on a JB n/s into JFK we were able to use the ramps - a much easier way to board. Perhaps they do belong to JB for their specific flights?
Respectfully,

Pat--that seems to be the case, prior to Scubaman's post in this thread. Since it is going to be a LONG time until the jetways are in place, it would be nice if they would have them available for most flights. Anyone have an email address for PJIA, that one could express that sentiment to?

Stairs today on AA to MIA but was able to walk to plane instead of bused which was nice. Scuba, are departures in the terminal now or still tent like last year?

The tents are long gone. All done in the terminal now. A little piece of it.

I wondered if you were going home yesterday, Scuba. Hopefully you are home by now? Or perhaps you had an overnight..
