JetBlue from Boston?

[outahere]

Now that they have been flying from Boston for a few months, has anyone flown them from Boston to Orlando? How was their service? We have reservations on them for our 4/17 cruise.

Thanks...............

I didn't fly them but my boss did and she highly recommends them. Bigger seats than other airlines and they are leather, video with headphones, good service in general. Bon voyage!

I have co-workers that use them a lot to fly from Oakland to NY. We have offices in NY. They like the conformtable seats and from the west coast, it is a direct flight.

Hands down - Jet Blue is the BEST airline to fly with kids. I've flown them MANY times and recommend them highly.

The video screen keeps them occupied for the whole trip.

Delta Song would be up there too, but it's more expensive.

Last year when we went to DL I gave the kids a choice - Jet Blue or First Class on another airline. They chose Jet Blue.

We went First Class anyway (I'm not THAT dumb. )

Thumbs way way way up for JetBlue out of BOS. DS and I flew them in Feb to Ft Lauderdale, so your mileage may vary slightly...

They are out of Terminal E at Logan, so your food choices, etc are a tad more limited, but...the fact that it is the International terminal, meant it was not quite as crazy busy. They did have curbside checkin when we went. The folks that work for JetBlue could NOT have been ANY nicer. Everyone, from gate agents, to FAs, to pilots, to the baggage handler who kept waving to DS through the window.

If logistics allow, they board and deplane using 2 doors, so that process goes a lot more quickly.

All things being equal, if JetBlue flies where I am going, unless I get an INCREDIBLE DEAL with someone else, they are my new airline of choice.

I flew Jet Blue Logan to Orlando Feb 1-8th. At Logan Jet Blue is temporarily located in Terminal E. We didn't have curb side check in but simply went inside straight up to the counter and checked our bags so no big deal. While not part of Jet Blue the TSA workers were really really nice especially to dd 3 1/2. From checking our luggage to getting thru security it was maybe 5 minutes. While we really didn't talk to the service people inside near the gate they seemed friendly. The flight crew were all friendly. We had 5 choices for snacks plus a full can of soda and apple juice. The tv was great to have though dd wasn't very interested (not much on Superbowl Sunday). The flight left on time and landed a bit early. I never heard any announcements about the flight being overbooked which was nice (unless you want to be bumped). There was early boarding for people needing extra time but not for small children. Flying back it took much longer to get thru security at MCO which we anticipated. Same thing friendly staff, choice of full size drinks/snacks, left on time etc. From MCO to Bos they had early boarding first for people needing extra time then they asked for any one traveling with a stroller - I assume it was to get all the gate checked items out of the walk way. I was able to go on with dds carseat even though dd/dh waited until towards the end to board. We plan on using Jet Blue again for our upcoming cruise if they ever release the dates. If you look on there website there is more leg room in the back of the plane then the front but we had plenty of room in the front.

Hi, we LOVE Jet Blue. As all other posters have said, they are a classy, well run, friendly airline - as well as very competetively priced. You'll have no complaints... ENJOY!

DH and I flew them in February for our RCCL cruise. Boston-Orlando. The planes are very nice, legroom seems better. The direct TV's are great. On the return there was a long delay-over 2 and 1/2 hours. They gave us all $50 vouchers and $10 food court vouchers. The luggage belt broke down in Logan terminal E when we got in so that was another 45 minute wait for the guy to hand lug all of our luggage up from below the belt! We are flying them in October again.

I will be flying them on tuesday to MCO. My sister flew them to CA in January and said it was great. Can't wait to get away from all this snow!!

This will be our 3rd year in a row flying JetBlue from SYR to MCO. We arrive on 7/5/04 for 8 nights at CBR. We absolutely LOVE JetBlue. We have also flown twice to Long Beach, Ca. on JetBlue.

Last summer our 8yr old and 11yr old had their pictures taken sitting in the cockpit on the ground in JFK. I hate to say it, but it may have been the high point of their vacation!!!
