Starting on Oct. 28, JetBlue Airways will offer seasonal nonstop flights from Portland International Jetport to Orlando, Florida.

The flights will run three days a week — Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Tickets go on sale starting Sunday at jetblue.com.

JetBlue will be the fourth carrier to offer nonstop service from Portland to Orlando, joining Breeze Airways, Frontier Airlines and Southwest Airlines.

During the winter months, Orlando is the most common destination for Portland flyers, accounting for 20 percent of all passengers last winter, according to the Jetport.
