You’d need a hotel. There are a few around the airport but because of proximity to downtown they are crazy expensive. Still less than $1400 though!",

You’ll be fine just add the confirmation code to your JetBlue app/acct.\n\n It’s not a bookable connection cause it’s way over it’s allowed connection time they have built in. It’s essentially a multi trip, which JetBlue does price sometimes ridiculously but other third parties may sell it.. it may also reprice once you click through it on Expedia",
