This is a very good deal for people who fly these routes very frequently but who either:
1. cannot freeze their travel plans 2 weeks ahead, or
2. typically fly at peak times and pay more than $90 each way.
I imagine that its appeal is limited to those who pay for their own travel, because:
3. fewer TB points will be earned than for walk-up fares, and
4. allocating the cost of the travel pass among different accounts would be challenging.
Items 3 and 4 benefit JetBlue, because they do not want customers to substitute the pass for non-discretionary top-dollar tickets.
