You’re getting more options with those blue potato chips, folks! JetBlue has been one of my favorite airlines for years and a lot of that is thanks to their free snack policy. Just yesterday, the airline announced that they’re adding two great new options to their free snack lineup. You’ll still be able to grab…
We all know that getting a bird’s eye view of a city from an airplane is a breathtaking experience. Whether it’s flying in over the twinkling skyline of Chicago at night or glimpsing the first signs of land as you approach Hawaii, views from planes can be transformative. Views from airports? Not so much. I…
Getting access to the internet while you’re cruising through the clouds is a true testament to the ingenuity of humanity. In-flight wi-fi is one of my favorite inventions of the past decade and I’m guessing you’ll agree. Instead of being forced to devote our time to stupid tasks like reading (bo-ring!), we can now see…
It’s no secret that I have a crush on JetBlue. I think their Mint first class product is a great new direction for premium cabins and I love that they offer free snacks and TV to all of their passengers. Thanks to a new partnership with Amazon Prime, though, JetBlue is offering something that no…
I’m not a Spirit flyer. Heck, I barely show spirit in my real life, much less my flying life. In fact, I’ve only taken one round-trip flight on Spirit and it was enough to get me to vow never to take Spirit ever again. While they may sell you on their “no-frills means low costs”…
Mint, JetBlue’s first class product, is coming to an airport near you. In fact, it’s already there if you live in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or New York. Now JetBlue is rolling out Mint to their Caribbean destinations and that’s good news for anyone that wants to turn their vacation into a First Class affair. The…
JetBlue announced yesterday that they’ll be officially joining forces with Royal Air Maroc to offer codeshare flights with Morocco’s national airline. While the two airlines have cooperated on flights on an interline basis since 2012, this advances the relationship from casually dating to full marriage, meaning a seamless experience in terms of flight purchasing and…
Bay Area Gamblers rejoice! Today, JetBlue launched service from SFO to LAS and that means two flights daily will now head to Vegas non-stop for all the blackjack, showgirls, and Alaskan snow crab legs you can handle. All of the standard JetBlue amenities (free snacks, drinks, and wi-fi) apply and the aircraft will be the…
I imagine the marketing team that came up with “Mint” as the name of JetBlue’s new premium cabin has been patting themselves on the back for months. It’s the perfect evocative brand name; a four-letter word without scorn. Mint is fresh. Mint is financially sound. Mint is crisp and cool and exactly what you want…
I’m currently flying over Iowa en route to New York (and then Morocco) and writing this using JetBlue’s free Fly-Fi wifi service. If you’re not familiar with JetBlue, read the last part of that sentence again: Free. Fly-Fi. Wifi service. While American/Delta/United are happy to charge you $15+ per flight to access their Gogo routers,…
If you’re a regular JetBlue True Blue flyer, get ready to start dancing in the streets. I just got an email from JetBlue announcing that they’re lowering their redemption minimum for True Blue flights from 5,000 points all the way down to 3,500. That’s a 30% reduction! Taxes and fees are $5.60 each way and…
Sunday marked an important date in JetBlue history: the inaugural flight featuring their brand new Mint product, aka JetBlue First Class. Like all things JetBlue, Mint isn’t your typical premium cabin. While other travel bloggers can fill you in about the flight experience itself, I’m here to tell you about the food and it’s unlike…
