I really enjoyed this video. Mainly because you flew economy the way most of us do. Most of the videos out there reviewing air travel are about traveling on business class and even first class. Well, we all know business and first will either be good or verrryyy good. We don’t need to see KZbin to know that This one I related to 😀

Thanks! I never would have thought of Jet Blue for transatlantic flights. Very nice.

Mint Class on Jet Blue is awesome. Very good value. Often at the gate there are extra seats. I got one for a $300 upgrade last time. Lay flat beds. Great food and a nice toiletry kit.

I agree about going for the upgrade to Mint/First/Business Class. I am a tall 6'2" guy and I need the space and the bed on those long-haul flights. I pay for the upgrade to fly comfortably long-haul!!

For anyone who wants to know instead of taking the dirty subway when you get to Jamaica station you can take the Long Island Railroad (LIRR) into Penn Station for around the same amount of money. It’s got More room, it’s cleaner and has a bathroom.

[@xYasago]

Next time you take the airtrain to Jamaica, I would highly suggest you use the Long Island railroad going to penn station instead of taking the subway to get to manhattan. The LIRR costs a couple bucks more than the subway but will get you to Manhattan much quicker and much more comfortably (and dare I say more safely). Penn station also has NJ transit so you can connect to hoboken, if that’s your final destination. Though for your itinerary I would just fly to Newark.

[@1nsertTitleHere]

About NJ transit, it's probably as quick, and a bit cheaper, to just take the PATH from Hearld Square into Hoboken.

Last time wife and I flew Jet Blue was 2002. First time Wife flew them with me, her actual second flight ever, was coming into JFK from Tampa, 9/11/2001, just as the first tower got hit. We all had to exit the plane and terminals, and watched that second tower get hit, and then the horror of both towers collapsing.

You can use your uk or any other international card for your metrocard, when it asks for a zip, you type in 5 zeros and enter, it will work.

[@The_Red_Squirrel]

I find it annoying that many websites expect their customers to have a US style address including city and zip code. I don't live in a city and don't have a zip code. Surely it cannot be that difficult to list addresses as line 1, line 2 etc...

I have done this trip four times in biz class. Excellent. I am slowly dropping Virgn and BA on my JFK flights. Easier transit connections to Jetblue flights internally. AND 30% or more discount. Go Jetblue....taking that exact flight in 10 days again. I am sold.

[@geetamoonesar249]

Good night. As much as JetBlue is considered an internal US airline, they have been flying to international destinations in the Caribbean for many years now. You should have used the tray table to check out the contents of your amenity bag. I agree with saving money, the AirTran and subway is the most affordable way into the city. There's also the bus service but it may be longer. If you don't have a US zip code i believe you can just use 5 zeros

The main duty free shop definitely requires price comparisons. However, I have found that many of the other shops in Heathrow offer great deals for non-UK travelers. They will immediately discount the VAT percentage without the hassle of filling out customs paperwork and applying for refunds. I spent a lot of time shopping for gifts in London, when I should have just waited until I got to the airport - with many of the same stores operating there. From buying a scarf for my mom, a wallet for my uncle, or even Harrod’s toffees, it was easier to get them at LHR.

[@JosephNoussair]

That was fun, and quite informative. I can second your endorsement of Jet Blue. They're quite good. The aircraft are well kept, and the crew have always been quite friendly in my experience, and they make time for everyone to relax or sleep. Unlike your experience with United, I like their transatlantic flights, especially on the 787s. I think they are a superior aircraft for long flights - they're quiet, well designed, have large windows, and load quickly due to their size. The pressurization is also better on the 787. You just don't get nausea.

[@JohnTaylor-bf6ll]

From my experience, you should never have to pay more than 8 dollars to get to any city airport, anywhere in the world. The simple thing always to ask yourself is - "how to the local "bell-hops or baristas" get to the airport every day for work? A good tip is to ask one. If you're in a non-English speaking country, more often than not, you will need to be able to read the local language to get this kind of local info. so always do your homework before you leave from home.

FYI Canadians can use our credit cards in the US by entering the numbers only from our postal code, plus zeros to get to five digits. This works with the machines in the USA that need a zip code. Might work the same way for UK postal codes...

I quite like the concept of ordering your food on the touchscreen on the plane. Have never had that on any long haul flights I've been on. That aside it looked a bit cramped to me . I'm used to the 3-4-3 seat configuration where there's a bit more space (and the plane is a bit bigger) but a 3-3 I thought would only be good enough for short haul, not an 8 hour transatlantic flight.

Been on many 1 aisle trans Atlantic flights in the 80's. It is awful because you can't go to the toilet or stretch your legs enough due to only 1 aisle.

First transatlantic flight I took in May 1989 was on a 757 of Air 2000, and in 1991 Nationair Canada, …once this aircraft had ETOPS approval they were popular narrow-bodies across the pond, and even before that 707s and DC8s etc. The Air 2000 and Nationair service back then was far superior compared with today’s schedule carriers and its the service that makes a difference. The Jetblue service appeals more compared to some of the so called 5 star rated airlines recently flown with

Jet Blue was ONCE upon a time, the absolute best airling to fly in the United States. Although they were never the cheapest, they were the best value, never a canceled flight, rarely late, SUPERIOR customer service and if by some rare chance they were running late due to their own fault, you would be handsomely compensated. Jet Blue serviced many of the smaller regional airports (Long Beach, Ontario, O.C. John Wayne, etc). In fact, it was the passengers from these regions that made Jet Blue popular. Over the years, Jet Blue became to big for their britches, completely forgetting about who it was that made them succesful. Jet Blue abandoned their customers at the regionals and opted to service bigger airports. They no longer service Long Beach and Ontario, but of course now service LAX. Who wants to go there unless you absolutely have to. So now they have service to London from JFK. Just as Jet Blue abandoned their faithful customers, we now have abandoned Jet Blue. Although the number has greatly dwindled, those that I know that still fly Jet Blue have nothing good to say about their service. In fact, just the opposite.

[@lautrufend]

Fun tip for NYC Subway and Airtrain riders: If you’d like to buy a MetroCard with a non-US credit card, you should be able to enter 00000 or 99999 as your zip code and it will work. (Source: confirmed by several friends and blogs.)

[@TheMacMaster]

I tried it. It did not work. :(

[@TheMacMaster]

Lived there 12 years. Doesn't work. Tried again last week.

[@rossmcl]

That used to work and sometimes still does on older machines. For newer machines and online payments, you work out your "zip" code by taking your UK post code, removing all the letters from it then padding it out with zeroes. Therefore, for example, JL3 0XB becomes "30" then you add the zeroes to get "30000", worked for me in instances when "99999" was rejected. I was really surprised that it was as simple as that because it is by no means obvious.
