First of all, nothing has been "announced."

Second, IFE will remain FREE on ALL jetBlue flights...that's a fact. Only the 3 Fox InFlight movies are for purchase at $5 each and even those are free on Caribbean flights where DirecTV service is not available AND the FA's have access to make that system free as a courtesy on delayed flights (even due to weather or other issues that are not the fault of jetBlue!)

All that was mentioned is that additional seats in the forward part of the cabin would be blocked so that those buying tickets at the last minute at the highest fares would not be automatically stuck with a middle seat as it is now. It was also mentioned that there are some incentives to be offered for more frequent travellers on JetBlue. No details were officially announced.
^ Thank you!!! Someone here actually listened to the call closely...there will still be NO classes on jetBlue, just some blocked seats fup front for last minute bookings.



FWAAA, once again your views of Neeleman are thoughtless.

And MOST of the public's average Joe's don't fly the legacy airlines OR HATE flying the legacy airlines due to overpriced, substandard service in economy class which accounts for the vast majority of airline seats in the country.
