I am sorry, but JetBlue will eventually fail at MINT. For now, its a great novelty that will eventually lose its luster. While JetBlue is a fairly decent airline, the first few times that Jetblue has massive cancellations due to IRROPS, WX etc, and can't accomodate people in a MINT cabin for several days will mark the beginning of the end. Jetblue has and will continue to fail at having a successful IRROPS strategy. Part of the reason is that you can only cram so many people onto an Airbus 321. Now, throw in a MINT plane which goes MX or throw in a bad NY summer storm with mass cancellations and your going to have lots of disapointed MINT paying customers. At least with the big boys, they can throw a wide body into the mix and clear up any backlog within a day.
