JetBlue All-You-Can-Fly Passes Sold Out Early
You snooze, you lose. JetBlue's all-you-can-fly pass had its share of haters who questioned its value, but there were more than enough enthusiasts that were gung-ho for the deal. The special passes sold out before the promotion was scheduled to expire, and a JetBlue spokeswoman said, "We wanted to ensure those who bought the pass could get the flights they want, so we capped the number of passes we would sell."
JetBlue Launches Summer Sale and Extends Layoff Program
JetBlue's once unique onboard amenities may be overshadowed by Virgin America's, but the "happy jetting" airline often has unbeatable prices. Most recently, JetBlue launched its Hello Summer Sale, with one-way fares from $29 to $129 and over 300,000 seats on sale. You need to book by May 21 for travel between June 2 and Sept.
JetBlue Will Refund Tickets For Laid Off Workers
So many people could use a helping hand these days, and JetBlue is stepping up to lend one to weary, would-be travelers. If you've flown with the airline with more legroom then you may recall its tickets are typically not refundable. In a business-minded gesture, JetBlue has announced it will refund the tickets of anyone who made a purchase before losing their job as part of The JetBlue Promise Program.
The Scoop: JetBlue Unveils JetPaws Program
JetBlue wants your furry friends to fly the friendly skies! The airline (which saddened us by raising prices earlier this year), just announced a brand-new program for jetting with your pet. In addition to a downloadable Travel Pettiquette guide, as part of the new JetPaws, customers will receive two TrueBlue customer loyalty program bonus points for each trip – that way your furball can help you earn frequent flier points, whether or not they're invited next time!
JetBlue Is the Most-Delayed Airline
JetBlue's CEO may have shown his employees that he's a stand-up guy by voluntarily cutting his salary, but the executives of the airline could probably save more money by figuring out a plan for greater efficiency. Research shows that JetBlue was the most-delayed major airline in August, with an on-time arrival rate of 64.7 percent, while the industry average for being on-time was 77.3 percent.
With that kind of failing record, some passengers may be more likely to seek out seats on other airlines.
When All Else Fails — Twitter It!
Happen to be on JetBlue Flight 647 Sunday night, service from JFK to SFO? Two of our Coutorture staffers were — for five and a half hours. No, not airborne; they were stuck on the tarmac.
The Scoop: JetBlue Doubles Prices for Underseat Pets
All this talk of what the airlines are charging for the details, got me thinking about my lil detail, North. He loves being included in my life – and lets me know when he doesn't feel that way – but, boy, can the price of plane tickets get us down! When looking into a summer trip with my pooch this week, I realized a very shocking (and troubling) fact: JetBlue has doubled the price of a cabin pet from $50 to $100.
