Jet Blue opening?

[katallo]

It hasnt gotten any better, now when I search for flights from the Wash. DC area there's nothing. I wanted to go through JB because I was planning to use some of my trueblue points. I would've thought they made some progress throughout the night. On expedia, the nonstops out of DCA are showing, but none out of BWI. I think Jetblue needs to offer a discount code for all of the hassle.

I agree. We were glad to have nonstops from BWI, but not one comes up.

Yes, we were/are hoping to book Jetblue out of BWI. Closer than Reagan/DCA. They start on November 12th, so can't believe they have yanked that service before it even begins. You can book up to Feb. 10th, then nothing. Of course if they moved it back to Dulles I would be happy.

After trying the googleflights and seeing some reasonable fares,Thank you very much, Schucraig!!, I also tries to book JB but cannot book today. I called JB to see if they have ANY info on when this is going to be fixed and the representative has no idea. She said they were loaded for a period of time overnight and that is probably how you folks were able to book but they have reload everything again.None of this makes me feel all warm and fuzzy about my "favorite" airline, between this hellish fare release and the baggage fees!! Come on JetBlue, you should do better than this!! Good luck to us all trying to book for spring!!

You weren't able to book using Google Flights?

I can't believe the website is having such issues - I still haven't been able to get in to look at fares, but when I chose the flights through Google Flights, it redirected me to my cart on the JB website and I was able to proceed from there. Is that not happening now?

 

[n2mm]

On FB jetblue is saying it might not be fixed until tomorrow! I was so excited and waited patiently for Wednesday and now all that has been replaced with frustration. Ever since they changed websites they've had issues. Two weeks ago it took me 2 hours to book tickets. The website kept throwing me out, then it wouldn't take my KTN for either if us.

I am with you, we have flown on JB a lot. I am frustrated with all of the issues the site is having as well as the new baggage fees. I waited for weeks for the release of flights to come and it was nothing but a mess yesterday! With the price of gas going down and the airlines upping the fees it just doesn't seem right. I am glad I got the fares I did and was able to book yesterday through GoogleFlights. Nothing seems to be working today which is just terrible!

I am still having issues. The JB website seems to be up but not thru Googleflights. I get redirected to the JB website but then it wants me to enter everything all over with crazy expensive prices. Anyone get this to work today?

 

[Mousemommy1]

The JB website appears to be up now. I had wanted to go in and confirm the prices I saw when I was briefly able to get in yesterday (and before I had checked Google Flights).

Yeah, the non-stop RT airfare for 5 that I purchased via Google Flights yesterday for $1301.00 was $2566.00 on the JB website. That's $1265 savings!!! Unreal.

 

[minster22]

Just tried again...Google Flights has our flight in March (PVD to MCO) at $249 roundtrip but when you are directed to JB's site , it is $544....yikes!! Maybe tomorrow....

 

[disneycruisedreams]

Does anyone think that because of yesterday's prices JB blocked all other third party sites? I can't even see prices for JB on Kayak. Is there any hope? I can't pay these prices. They are almost $1000 more than yesterday for my family of 4. We would be flying out of Syracuse. I am sick over this.

Disneycruisedreams...I am so sorry to hear this. Yesterday I went from frustrated to confused to ecstatic for getting three flights out of Syracuse for such low fares because of Google Flights and Schucraig. I called JetBlue again today to make sure that they cancelled my original reservation and had the new one I did through Google flights and they assured me everything went through as I had planned. When are you planning on flying out of Syracuse...February or April, because there are flights in April that are reasonable on the JetBlue sight I just looked at. Let me know if I can help...I know what it is like to get hosed by flight prices and I would like to help out and pay it forward like Schucraig helped me yesterday.

Thank you UpstateMick! We are going Feb break and also April break leaving April 22 for a Disney cruise. I had flights booked yesterday but decided to cancel this morning before the 24 hour limit after seeing prices on Googleflights. I had hoped it was just a glitch but it is still not working. I booked myself on points that I did not cancel but I need to book the rest of the family. We had a flight going down for $187pp and I wish I kept it. It's now over $400 one way. My DH is talking about driving but I really don't want to waste all of that time traveling.

I could not get google flights to work. It kept redirecting me to JB and the prices were very high. I wanted to book for April asap because we are going to a wedding at WDW and I was afraid to wait. I played around with the dates more and got flights for $425 pp including checked bag & ins. I can live with that seeing its a school vacation week and we want to attend our friend's wedding.

Thank you for all the advice here.

Good luck to all still searching for flights. I hope you find what you want at a good price.

Same here. Been at ti for 2 days, but always just re-directs to JB home page. Strange how it's worked for some.

Yes, I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working. Very frustrating!

I hope you find good flights.

Well, I couldn't get Google Flights to work for me either (tried it using Chrome, Firefox and Safari) but was able to get round trip flights from Buffalo at $302 pp return direct with Jetblue. We had enough True Blue points accumulated to get one ticket free, so with the three remaining tickets plus upgrades for both of us in both directions to Even More Space, our total out of pocket was only $618. I am happy with that!

 

[mcd2745]

I'd take $302 pp round-trip in a heartbeat. Our dates, most of the flights are much more than that pp each way.

 

[mischief32]

I agree that I think Jetblue had some how possibly blocked Google Flights. I could not get it yo transfer like yesterday even with my kindle. Glad I booked yesterday. Save $300. I can pull flight up using confirmation number but still will not pull up under my true blue account even though I added my account number. The flight I booked by calling shows up but I can not manage it. I keep getting an error. When I try to pull up with confirmation number only I get an error. System still has issues but at least I have my reservations done. It was a long stressful process yesterday. I stressed out so much I made myself nauseous.

How are you all getting google flights to work?? I ended up buying from JB yesterday. More than I wanted to pay but I guess that's what happens when you fly over spring break.

 

[disneycruisedreams]

I booked with United for February break last night. We got a decent price but it's not non-stop which we usually get with JB. Oh well, that's over... now on to April flights. What I don't understand is our break is at the END of April. So why are flights extremely high then? It is higher than Easter week. I saw opening day a price of $187pp going down to Orlando for the non-stop but now it's at $462pp??? How can that be??? It was 24 hours after opening that the price jumped to that and it's not that they sold a lot of seats. There are only 10 seats sold!!! I should've reserved then and not looked back.
