Hey Dan, just FYI, because you may not know this. But US carriers do clean your laboratories throughout the flight. You may not have noticed it but they do. Since the pandemic it has been pushed towards that. Especially on long haul and ultra long haul flights.

I flew jetBlue from JFK to ORD last summer

[@iKvetch558]

JetBlue has been my favorite US airline for LONG time. I have had to pretty much give up on all the other due to customer service and luggage issues, but JetBlue has never left me hanging with any bullcrap.

[@joseadorno292]

Same! I love JetBlue so much!

[@harrydestaffano565]

Jet Blue was bloody awful when I flew it recently The crew were unfriendly, the seat was lumpy and there was no audio on the video. The food was boil in the bag quality, the previous passenger had left a can and cup in the seat pocket. Avoid Jet Blue. I will not be traveling Jet Blue again.

[@joseadorno292]

@@harrydestaffano565 That’s sad, I’ve never had a bad experience with them!

Great comment, but you got my CHECK simply cause of your awesome use 9f the word ‘bullcrap’. A sorely under-used phrase.

As a person who only flies economy, Jetblue is the MOST underrated airline in the US. Just way better than all the bigger ones.

[@glengamble526]

I’ve been subbing/follower of NSD for years now…and I STILL love his enthusiasm and appreciation for even the littlest things. I too use the credo of the ‘metal tube in the sky’ analogy and never lose my sense of wonder over the miracle of modern flight itself, never mind the extras like being able to lie down in a bed (in the sky!) and eat good food, watch movies etc. My attitude is gratitude.

[@BrenonaPlen]

Hey Dan! Long time fan, and Jetblue Transatlantic Crewmember. Your review is so touching and those of us involved in JetBlue's transatlantic product are incredibly proud and protective of the product we provide for reactions just like yours. Unfortunately we're seeing some changes especially in Core due to cost cutting that you may see in the news, such as the cold meals. But, hopefully in the future this will change back to the hot food options everyone loved. And honestly, the flavor of the cold food isn't bad. The curtain issue is something we get a lot. I personally agree. According to the company it's meant to provide a more open and "egalitarian" approach. Keeping the plane open for all regardless of what class they book. However, we are also encouraged to keep the front lavatories primarily for mint customers use. Can't wait for our lounges to open later next year and see what you think. Hope to see you aboard one of my flights soon. Cheers!

[@NonstopDan]

Thanks so much for your message Brenona! 🙏

[@erich930]

22:33 - The reason the flight takes longer is because they fly slower! An Airbus A321LR cruises around Mach 0.78-0.82 (78-82% the speed of sound), while a more typical widebody cruises around Mach 0.82-0.86 (82-86% the speed of sound). The A320 family was originally designed to be a short to medium-haul airliner so they didn't need to be designed to go as fast. It would be too difficult and expensive to redesign the wings and aerodynamic surfaces to withstand flying at more typical transoceanic speeds.

[@BMRS03]

I love Mint. But the major issue is the insane cost. I used to be able to go from BOS to SFO for around $1400. But over the last two years, I can’t seem to find any for under $2500. That is a lot of money for a 5-6h flight

[@b0tterman]

I'm a regular flyer of United and Delta and I keep using them bc I have so many points. But they absolutely blow. I had work pay for Mint from JFK to LAX and I can confirm it's amazing.

[@adderva]

I love your videos so much and they helped inspire me to become a pilot. I really hope you keep up the great and helpful content!

[@EhabAboud]

The product matchup between JetBlue and this camera is absolutely perfect. Chef's kiss, honestly! When it comes to thinking of the added innovation that dramatically enhances the experience for customers, I now associate with both of these brands. Lovely 🙌🏼

[@C_Bat]

I cannot believe this is a US airline, from someone working in an Asian airline, there are some features that I WISH I could have - ESPECIALLY the functions of the TV. Let's face it, there are only so many movies and shows you can watch, but being able to adjust the angles of the TV DOWN, and order food on the PTV is absolutely awesome!!

[@PainReaverX2]

[@mizbbalstr007]

Jet blue is also my favorite for domestic travel. They are the only airline that gives, not just a drink included in an economy ticket, but snacks too. And you can have as much as you want. If you want pretzels and chips and a cookie, they’ll give it to you. If you want to refill mid flight, they have a self serve station. Every other airline charges for snacks

[@TheRickyLevi]

Delta serves snacks free of charge, as well.

[@mizbbalstr007]

[@KentFong]

NSD ain't lying. JetBlue's MINT Class really does rock-even on its narrow-body domestic routes, where other carriers have ended their lay flat business-class seating. I cannot comment on JetBlue's international routes. But if it's like SFO to BOS, then JetBlue's MINT Class is a winner. Disclaimer: the SFO - BOS routes I flew were in the older style seats, prior to this newly released seat configuration that JetBlue recently rolled out, like NSD is reviewing here. The lack of a BC lounge is disappointing, however. JetBlue's domestic amenity kit WAS nicer than other carriers. That's a shame that NSD didn't receive one at all.

[@Wintershot]

Jetblue is the only US airline worth flying on.

[@kikyochan66]

JetBlue has the best service compared to other major US carriers, the crew is happy and helpful

[@JulesOfIslington]

I flew JetBlue return last year LGW-BOS-DCA in economy class. The trans-Atlantic segment was unquestionably the best economy class Trans-Atlantic service I've ever encountered.

[@vectorgen]

Huh. I've never flown JetBlue (i'm forced by circumstances to only fly AA) but for some reason I thought they were a low cost carrier like Spirit or something. You learn something new every day.

[@Derek-Adams]

Don’t worry, it’s a quite common misconception because of the “feel” of booking a flight on JetBlue. It feels as if you’re booking with a ultra low-coast carrier airline. There’s the base fare then all the fees come into play such as the seat you choose, fees for luggage, fees for carryon, fees for inflight entertainment, fees for oxygen [sarcasm]…just like the other low-cost airlines. JetBlue isn’t a bad airline but I, personally, have not had a good experience with them. Their business class is a great option - if you can snag a seat, they go quick - but their economy class seats are awful. AWFUL.

[@laurenm6511]

They used to be.

[@DougsAwesome12]

@@Derek-AdamsJetBlue has the best economy class in the US. The most leg room, every seat has tvs, outlets, and usb ports in the screens. Free snacks full size drinks and free WiFi for everyone.

Pretty certain this is the same seat that will be on Iberia’s new 321XLRs, which will be my first transatlantic business class experience next year. Super excited!

[@airbus7373]

Not long after I asked for it, here it is. Jetblue was able to figure out some local restaurants to get their catering from (even in economy) instead of using the traditional crappy catering providers out of JFK. Awesome video Dan

All of this was done first by Virgin America who revolutionized domestic US airlines, not jetBlue. Mood lighting, boarding music, ordering from your screen, etc. I may be biased cause I worked for Virgin for some time, but it’s a real shame they’re not around anymore. It’s nice that JB is carrying on the hospitality though.

Hey nonstop Dan American Airlines just announced that they had their inaugural flight from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport to Brisbane Australia I highly recommend it😮 and it's awesome

[@nonstops_aviation]

JetBlue is also my favorite US airline and I wouldn't mind flying them long haul one day just wish they flew to other long haul destinations like maybe when the A321XLR comes out, we can see them add long haul service from Fort Lauderdale to Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Buenos Aires, Argentina and even Santiago de Chile and can compete with LATAM, Aerolineas Argentinas and American.

I feel like we don't appreciate JetBlue as much because we got the first impression of it as an LCC, so we naturally group it with other LCCs like Southwest. I feel like if they made a child company that was only dedicated to these more long-haul routes, they would probably fare much better because most people would see it as a regular airline

[@jeazy1878]

For roughly similar cost, JetBlue has a much superior product. Southwest doesnt even come close.

I’ve been raving about JB Mint since I first flew it in 2021. I was blown away by the quality and lie flat for trans continental. That was the pre updated Mint config. I still have yet to fly the new one. Also when I first flew them in my survey I commented on when laying down I couldn’t see the show without a glare or distorted image completely. Glad they updated this!

Happy to see you’ve enjoyed your flight, Dan. JetBlue in my eyes have always been a hybrid carrier, even from day 1, offering seat back entertainment, live TV and extra legroom for reasonable money. I hope they continue to expand that presence slowly across the US, instead of doing it the “easy way”, by trying to buy this airline, buy that airline and getting into all sorts of DOJ trouble lol. Like just expand your presence and continue to do what you do so well! 😂

JetBlue did explain in a video from 2013 on KZbin why they chose not to add a curtain between business and economy however

[@jennys1487]

My only issue with JetBlue is that they have NO staff at their check in desks until 2 hours before the flight at airports outside of their hubs. This was a huge issue when flying internationally on a busy day because we had to use that desk so that they could check our visas, etc. They showed up at the 2 hour mark and spent nearly 30 minutes getting the computers up which gave an entire flight of people 90 minutes to get through their line, security, & get to the gate.
