Landing at Gatwick or Stansted may be convenient if you are transferring to a short-hop flight elsewhere in UK, but not too convenient if your destination is downtown London...
*Stansted is convenient if going to Cambridge, but not for Oxford. Gatwick, being way south of London, is not convenient to much of anything.

I'll give jetBlue credit for improving their hard product. But who thought it was a great idea to make these seats aisle-facing? It makes things less private. You can see everyone going up and down the aisle, even when you are in lie-flat mode. And maybe it's just the image mock-up, but there doesn't seem to be much shoulder room. The seat seems to be jammed up against the cabin's side-panel, with not much space between the seat and the divider on the other side. On the other hand, I'm sure the inflight soft-product will be much better than what the other U.S.-based carriers are offering TATL.
