Greetings,
Looks like we will be traveling on JetBlue out of BOS. I have used only AA out of BOS. For the most part, our experience wasn't too bad (except for security which seemed "unorganized" at times, lost luggage, construction, customer service spotty, etc....lol). Following the posts over at the AA forum, most folks do not like flying AA out of BOS.
What is everyone's take on JetBlue out of BOS? If possible, I would appreciate advice on thie one. Thanks.....

I'm a Boston flight attendant for JetBlue and I love our facilities there. Security is usually pretty quick, especially during the down times. Facilities are clean and well maintaind with a plethera of windows and seats. Gates are all close to each other and easy to find. There always seems to be a line at the bag drop kiosk (online/self check-in). It seems like it would be easier to check in online, say you forgot/lost your boarding pass and go thru the manual checkin lines. Maybe because we have so many kiosk's and can process so many people at once with them.
I think you will enjoy traveling on JetBlue through Boston!

I've only flown Jetblue through BOS once (usually I go to JFK) but they are a great airline. I travel a lot for work, and my travel is almost exclusively on AA/Oneworld. Thus, I'm elite on AA and like to fly AA even when on personal travel, for the perks of elite. However, if I was not elite, I'd fly Jetblue over AA any day.

I fly out of Boston quite often. Never had a problem. My only real complaint is that they don't have many nonstop's from the west coast that aren't red eyes. From Vegas they don't have any.

I've flown JetBlue from/to Pittsburgh on several ocassions; service is great and I have never been delayed out of either Boston or Pittsburgh. My only complaint is that they do not have much service between the two cities, and times are not as good as US. But all things being equal, I will always choose JetBlue over US. ^

I find flying out of Boston to be very easy compared to any of the NYC airports.

I've only flew out of Logan twice, both times Jet Blue.
Last year I was able to go on stand-by but the flight got delayed to the time of my original flight.
This year I tried to go on stand-by but they had too many people in front of me, I waited an hour for my flight which then was delayed another hour and fifteen minutes.
The gates are convenient but a bit of a hike from security... the counter gets backed up significantly especially around 5pm on a weekday.
I like to watch the Cape Air planes pull away from the terminal while waiting for my flight, something about the pilot closing his door while driving is amusing to me.

Although this is slightly OT since I haven't flown out of BOS on them, JetBlue is an awesome airline. Now, they just need to join oneworld so I can earn my miles! :p
