I have wanted to travel with JetBlue for over twenty years and was really excited when they announced during the pandemic they would be flying transatlantic to London. Last month, I flew with them in Mint to Boston, and then back from New York’s JFK (their hometown airport) to sample it for myself. There are a few things which make JetBlue different – including:
1. Unmatched Comfort in Every Seat: Stretch Out and Breathe Easy
Forget the days of cramped economy cabins. JetBlue boasts the “most legroom in coach, baseline seat pitch” on transatlantic flights, translating to ample legroom for passengers of all heights. This makes for a more comfortable journey, especially on the seven-hour flights where even the slightest extra space can make a world of difference. JetBlue’s comfortable seats with adjustable headrests and ample shoulder space ensure a relaxing flight, allowing you to arrive at your destination feeling refreshed and ready to explore.

2. Free Amenities Galore: Entertainment, Wi-Fi, and More, All Included
JetBlue doesn’t nickel and dime you for in-flight essentials. Every seat on their transatlantic flights comes equipped with a free 10.1-inch touchscreen entertainment system, packed with movies, TV shows, music, and games. Stay connected throughout your flight with free, high-speed Wi-Fi. JetBlue’s “Fly-Fi” service allows you to browse the web, check emails, or even stream your favourite shows at 35,000 feet. Say goodbye to expensive onboard Wi-Fi fees and hello to a truly connected journey.
3. Award-Winning Service: A Friendly Face at Every Turn
From the moment you step onto the plane, JetBlue’s award-winning customer service sets them apart. Their friendly and professional crew members are dedicated to making your flight experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Whether you need assistance with your luggage, have questions about the in-flight entertainment system, or simply want a friendly chat, JetBlue’s crew is there to go the extra mile for you.
4. Competitive Pricing & No Hidden Fees: Transparency You Can Trust
Transatlantic flights can be notoriously expensive, but JetBlue offers competitive pricing without sacrificing quality. Their transparent pricing model includes all taxes and fees upfront, so you won’t be surprised by hidden charges at the checkout. This allows you to budget effectively and focus on planning your European adventure.
5. A Taste of the Destination Before You Land: Free Meals & Beverage Service
JetBlue elevates the in-flight dining experience with a complimentary selection of snacks and beverages on all transatlantic flights. Savour a free hot meal featuring fresh ingredients and regional flavours, a welcome change from the standard airfare. JetBlue also offers a complimentary selection of wines, beers, and spirits (for passengers 21+), allowing you to unwind and enjoy a touch of luxury during your flight.
6. Modern Fleet & Commitment to Sustainability: Fly Responsibly
JetBlue operates a modern fleet of Airbus A321LR aircraft on their transatlantic routes, known for their fuel efficiency and comfort. The airline is committed to sustainable practices, reducing their environmental impact and minimizing their carbon footprint. This allows you to fly with peace of mind, knowing you’re choosing an airline that prioritizes environmental responsibility.
7. Streamlined Boarding & Disembarkation Process: Get to Your European Adventure Faster
JetBlue understands that navigating busy airports can be stressful. They’ve streamlined their boarding and disembarkation process to minimize wait times and get you on your way to exploring Europe as quickly as possible. Enjoy a smooth and efficient ground experience, allowing you to maximize your precious vacation time.
8. Entertainment Options for All Ages: A Family-Friendly Choice
Traveling with children can be challenging, but JetBlue offers families a stress-free transatlantic experience. The complimentary in-flight entertainment system features a wide selection of kid-friendly movies, TV shows, and games, keeping young minds entertained throughout the flight. JetBlue also offers complimentary snacks and beverages to satisfy children’s appetites.

9. Unique Mint Business Class Experience: Luxury Redefined
For those seeking an extra level of comfort and indulgence, JetBlue’s Mint Business Class offers a truly unique experience. Indulge in spacious lie-flat seats, complete with memory foam pillows and plush blankets. Enjoy a curated selection of gourmet meals and premium beverages, served on fine china. With complimentary noise-cancelling headphones and a dedicated entertainment system, JetBlue’s Mint Class elevates transatlantic travel to a whole new level.
