JetBlue Park at Fenway South is a baseball park in Fort Myers, Florida.[1] Opened in March 2012, it is primarily the spring training home of the Boston Red Sox, replacing earlier separated facilities at City of Palms Park and Boston's former (1993–2011) minor league complex, also located in downtown Fort Myers.[1] The naming rights were purchased by JetBlue,[2] an airline with major operations at Boston's Logan International Airport since 2004.
