Tell Me ABout Jet Blue!

How do you like it? We are flying it for the first time this July and got 308.00 round trip for each person (3 of us). Do you think the prices will go down at all before then?

JetBlue is awesome! TVs at every seat. More legroom than Southwest. We took the inaugural flight from BDL to MCO in November and are flying from SWF to MCO this Thursday on JetBlue. Use JetBlue frequently now that Southwest has raised their ticket prices substantially to cover the "free" checked bags. So long ALB - Hello SWF and BDL.
BTW - 1st checked bag is free on JetBlue!
Welcome Home fellow DVCer!!

Thank you! I love to hear that "Welcome Home!"

I love Jetblue. Are they perfect? Nope. But I have had fewer issues with JB than most airlines. Now, I fly either JB or SW from NE.

I fly Jetblue out of White Plains several times a year, by far my favorite airline.
Convenient flight schedules (4 or 5 n/s flights daily each way) larger seats and more leg room, TVs at each seat, 1 free checked bag.

Depending on where in CT you are, you might want to check it out. Parking there is the big negative, fortunately I live close enough that I can have someone drop me off and pick me up. I believe parking there is approx $24/day with no discounts and limited availability.

My experience has been if you check daily, sometimes several times a day, you will likely find a lower fare for one or both legs of your flights. Sometimes it might only be a few dollars sometimes it can be over a hundred dollars, I just had one drop from $155 to $95 but it only lasted for one day and went back up, and is now $202.

Simply call Jetblue and they will issue you a credit for the difference, which is good for 1 year and is transferable.

Good Luck

That's what I've been doing. It's gone down 3 times since I booked in November. So far I've got a credit of $144.

Another CT girl here! Can anyone tell me when Jetblue opens their next booking window? I am looking to book for end of Sept/first week in Oct. I have looked all over the site and can't find it! Its probably right in front of my face!

There is nothing about it on there website, and even if you call their 800 number the customer service reps don't even know.
Based on past performance my guess is it should be soon. If you are a Trueblue member you should get an email announcing the extension a couple of days before it is announced to the public.

Thanks!

I read on another thread (somewhere... today) that JetBlue will open bookings past Sept 6th toward the end of March. The 23rd or 26th...

You don't need to keep checking the site daily for price changes. Go to yapta.com and register the flight you are watching; it will e-mail you as soon as the price drops. I have accrued hundreds of dollars in credit this way, no effort required! I booked one flight last week, and it dropped $25; called yestedray for my credit. Quick and easy!
