No AYCJ in 2011
 
Just received an email announcing that there will be no AYCJ in 2011. :(

Nice of them to give you a heads up.

Nice of them to give you a 30% off code as a "sorry to dissapoint you"

Nice of them to give you a friends & family 15% code to share with your friends at Flyer Talk :D:D:D:D

Thats weird, I posted in another thread that I sat next to a JB marketing person and they were working on the AYCJ promo positioning statements last week. I guess maybe they decided not to go with it.

This is unfortunate. Here's to hoping for next year... :(

I would imagine that companies work all the time on trying to market something internally and then when it is successful they launch to the public. If they cannot sell it internally then they never launch.

Or that guy was working on the text of the :not gonna happen" email I got. ;)

Oh! No! I had so much fun last year I took the month of Sep off :(

NOOOOO. September looks like a free month for me and I could have finally taken advantage of this!

But good on them to let us know 2 months in advance. I would have been even more disappointed if they had told us in mid-August.

Very sad to hear this. I wanted to do it last year but waited too long to buy, so I was hoping they would bring it back this year. Maybe next year.

I thought the same thing about the internal thing and that it probably didnt get approved.

I saw that they were considering 2 options:
1) AYCJ $599
2) AYCJ excluding certain days of the week (I think starting on Friday ) $499

That's probably what the old promotion was and she just happened to have the language up and I caught a glimpse, too bad it didn't happen.

Glad I did this last year, it was so much fun. Hope B6 brings it back in the future.

Did any other former AYCJers get this email from JetBlue? I did AYCJ last year and I didn't receive anything. Nothing in my spam filters either.

I suspected that they wouldn't be going this program again as business seems to have improved, but would like to take advantage of the promo codes.

Guess they couldn't turn a profit on it. Might have due to your excessive travel last year couple years on it resulting in a 3AM Puerto Rican cab ride... :p
