Hi Sara,

If you do a search on these boards you will find some threads on JetBlue. Here are a couple:

I think they were the first US airline to put TVs on all seatbacks.

We flew JetBlue in April and my children loved it. There is a small TV screen on the back of each seat and they come around and offer unlimited snacks. As for me, I found the seats comfortable, found the service friendly, and appreciated the kid-friendly atmosphere. It doesn't seem like you are flying a discount airline. We would definitely fly them again -- although we are flying Song for our next trip because the fare was better.

I agree!!!

The TV's are great!!! We've never had a bad flight with them, and we've flown several times. Almost always arriving at our destination early!!!

Enjoy your flight!

We just flew Jet Blue out of Newark and it was great. I love the tv's and everyone was very courteous. I would definetly use them again!!

We are flying JetBlue for the first time, out of Newark in 4 weeks. We usually fly SONG, but they pulled out of Newark. Can't wait.

I usually fly Song out of Boston and was planning on doing so on Nov 30. But, when I checked to see how JetBlue was comparing farewise to Song and SW for that same trip (just for curiosity's sake, not to make a change) I saw that the fare was $146 r/t!!! Booked it immediatly and then called and cancelled my Song flight. There was an $80 difference, so I got a voucher for a future flight with Song. It has usually been my experience that JetBlue was a bit more expensive than Song....not so yesterday!!!
I can't wait to try out JetBlue. I get a bit annoyed with the constant miniscule changes that Delta/Song makes to their flight times..also those big changes. And I have talked to a lot of people who have flown JetBlue and loved it!!!

I flew it to MCO in September -- great ride, great treatment. Tvs in the seats are fun! There's a free set of earphones, and a better set you can buy for (I think) a buck. You do this before getting on the flight, in line to hand over your boarding pass. However, they do pass through the cabin with them as well. You can keep the earphones for the return flight and future flights.

The blue potato chips were cool!

They also are part of the on-site flight check in, so on your return day you can check your baggage through to home from the on-site hotel, get your boarding pass, and when you actually go to the airport, go straight to your gate.

My friend's husband flies all the time for his job, and though he can fly business and first class, if Jet Blue is an option, he's just as likely to take them because he appreciates the service.

Jet Blue is great!!! I use them all the time. I used Song to fly home on my trip two weeks ago, and although song also has the TVs on the seat, I think Jet Blue is better. Song doesn't offer free snacks, Jet Blue does. The Song flight attendents on my flight didn't seem very friendly, and the Jet Blue Flight attendents are always very friendly. I have never had an issue with Jet Blue changing/cancelling flights, they are great.

I think the overall Jet Blue experience was much better!!

I too, love jetBlue. Lately though, Song has been a lot better in fare and schedule on the BOS/MCO route so that I haven't flown them as much. I always check them first , then Song and Southwest.

Jet Blue is great . Just don't be an idiot like me and try Song/Delta because they are a little cheaper. I flew Song in May with just me and the DW and the TVs did not work on either flight . I sent them an e-mail complaining and they just sent back a reply that basically said sorry, better luck next time . Unfortunately I had already booked our flight that leaves tomorrow on Song as well! If the TVs don't work this time, with my kids, there will be hell to pay!
To add to the pain they have rescheduled the flight three times and now we arrive in Orlando at midnight!

Long live JetBlue! I am sold and will not fly any one else again.
