    When airlines announce new service between two cities, it doesn't just create more flight options. It also drives down airfares. This spring, new routes from major carriers like American, JetBlue, United, and Virgin America will mean big savings on service both in the U.S. and abroad. 


    Here are the 10 routes with the best potential for bargains.

  • Nashville To/From Boston and Ft. Lauderdale Via JetBlue

    This year's Cinco de Mayo marks JetBlue's inaugural flight to Nashville from both Boston and Ft. Lauderdale. Celebrate with Boston-Nashville introductory fares from $84 one-way, Ft. Lauderdale-Nashville flights from $99 one-way. These new flights are all nonstop.


    To take advantage of the sale fares, travel Mondays, Saturdays, or Sundays between May 5 and June 24 for the Boston-Nashville BOS-BNA route; and any day but Sundays between May 5 and June 28 on Ft. Lauderdale-Nashville FLL-BNA flights.

    Air France recently expanded its presence in the U.S. market by launching new daily flights from the New York (JFK) to Paris (Orly). Orly is the main avenue for domestic travelers visiting Corsica, Toulon, Perpignan, Lorient, and other destinations in southern France, but it remains just a shuttle ride away from Paris' city center.

Scheduled for takeoff on June 1, this transpacific route is the first and only to traverse the nearly 8,500 miles in one go; it's also the world's longest Dreamliner flight.
