This weekend was my first time using JetBlue. Since my outbound was IAD-LGB on a Friday afternoon I anticipated some sort of delay but the departure went smoothly and the seat (7D both ways) was great. I'm a bit confused as to why the seating chart the day before showed virtually all of the front rows completely full but at departure almost all of the middle seats in that section were empty (including my row, happily). The XM radio was terrific - I so much enjoyed the old radio drama channel that I never wound up watching my DVD player on that leg.

Monday morning's LGB-IAD flight went equally smooth. No XM radio on that flight, though, so I did use my DVD player, and I have to agree that powerports would have been a nice addition. Still, the flight went by quickly and we landed a bit early. Service was very pleasant and attentive on both flights, reminiscent of how service USED to be on the legacy carriers.

Overall, I was very impressed with JetBlue's performance and comfort. It was well worth the inconvenience of having to use Dulles, and Long Beach Airport was a delightful, no hassle change from the chaos of LAX.
