Jet Blue is getting hit with a 2 million dollar penalty for chroniclly late flights.
The transportation Department says half the money will go to the passengers who were delayed on flights along 4 routes on the East Coast between the summer of 2022 and late 2023.
The Department said it's the first such fine against an airline over chronical delays and it blaims JetBlue for unealistic schedulling
JetBlue said that despite settling the matter it blaims the Federal gevernmet for problems in the air traffic control system saying that that contributed to the late flight.
