No, I had not noticed because I stopped using the EML feature a month or so ago.

After paying for the EML seats on every JetBlue flight I took (and I fly at least once a month on JetBlue), I skipped paying the upcharge on my last two flights. Now, with the increase, for me at least, EML is a thing of the past.

Based on their Jet View survey's, JetBlue is looking to increase every fee they can and looking to add fee's anywhere they can.

Maybe they did not announce the increase as they are floating a trial balloon and if they see a slowdown in sales of EML seats, they will go back to the original fee's.
