This is a discount carrier (like Southwest), but behaves like a premium airline in some ways. For example, it is only major carrier in North America that I know of that offers live directTV for all seats (everyone has their own screen).
Needless to say, this can be a god-send when travelling with kids (The Cartoon Network is included), and I had the good fortune of watching a 3 hour playoff hockey game (live) last spring during a 3 hour flight from New Orleans to New York! All for airfares that were a fraction of Continental's. Though meals are not served, there are good packaged snacks and assigned seating. Also, the fares are sometimes unbelievably low (JFK to Orlando roundtrip for $98US!!!)
Bottom line: Everyone I know who flies JetBlue, LOVES JetBlue.
In Burlington, I like the Marriott Residence Inn just a few miles from the Airport...in Tampa, I would just rent a car to get to Orlando...shuttles would be out of the question.
Hope this helps!
