Flying JetBlue New Mint Studio Business Class A321LR Transatlantic

[@lonebison]

JetBlue has become my favorite airline for both International and Domestic flights. I have yet to splurge on a Mint or Mint Suite but after seeing how nice it is I plan on going for it next time. The fact that the coach seats all have more leg room (and overhead storage bins) than any other airline I've been on has made me a loyal jetBlue customer from now on. Plus the blue lighting is aesthetically pleasing to the senses.

[@TheKirbyT]

I remember when JetBlue's whole deal was "we don't do first/business so we can give economy more space" and the whole live TV thing was a game changer. my family vacationed in NYC and Jetblue was our go-to airline. I'd like to try Mint sometime.

[@blueb4829]

In business you have to adapt or die. JetBlue, like many other successful companies, is constantly evolving to meet market demands and remain competitive. I worked for the company for 13 years but left a few years back to pursue another career. I'm always rooting for them.

I don´t know why, but I like this Airline much more than the other US-Airlines.

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

Everyone does

[@StallionFX1]

for good reason. JetBlue puts effort into their customer service and products and it really shows. That said, I’ve heard nothing but good reviews about their new mint product and I wouldn’t mind paying between 100 - 200 dollars for the mint, especially with all the extras you get with it.

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

@@StallionFX1 the only thing the stops then is the fact that they don't have longes and not a lot of good routes in the US. But I have good news for summer

[@Dropkickurteacher]

@@StallionFX1 trust me, JetBlue’s customer service sucks

[@StallionFX1]

@@sergiolaurencio7534 I think they are making a lot of changes this year, considering their international routes alone. So it would only make sense to implement a lounge. As far as their domestic routes go, financially for routes that are shorter than 4 hours, just doesn't make sense, but that could change.

[@MAYBEE90]

Those pilots were incredible! I loved how they explained everything.

[@JeffJacquesmd]

JetBlue has the best domestic business/“first” product in the US today. Mint is comfortable, the food is really quite good and innovative for airplane food. The seats are awesome, with a very nice selection of video and entertainment on the IFE. Very good selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and the FAs seem genuinely happy. My preferred airline for transcon travel.

[@TysonIke]

I disagree heavily but ok

[@JeffJacquesmd]

@@TysonIke always your right to disagree. My comments are based on flights both before and during the pandemic. And I’ve flown all the transcon domestic carriers multiple times. Share your thiughts

JetBlue mint has been my best business class experience to date by far . Food is amazing , flight attendants were the best , plane was clean and fresh . Even the pilots were funny . Great product they have going . They should offer on more routes .

[@ERBViewer]

Amazing crew interaction, especially the pilot and co-pilot, Thumbs up for the crew on the trans Atlantic flight.

[@chriswaddilove]

Great transatlantic flight, and the Mint Suite would definitely be worth it for the extra space - being able to sit in another seat for a meal etc. Love the idea of the direct TV and free wi-fi. I would expect these flights to be in big demand and very successful as the US opens to UK travellers on Monday. BA need to take notice of this competition.

[@SteveBlancoMusicianWarrior]

Been flying JetBlue since they began and I have nothing but praise for them. My favorite USA carrier, by far. Now it looks like they're killing it with the new luxury products. Great video🥂

Good job Lance fitting into the cockpit or flight deck…what a guy

[@StallionFX1]

Personally, I think the Mint Studio would makes sense for long haul flights (7 hours or more). On a return flight like LHR to JFK (8 hours plus) I would probably pay extra for the studio, but I’d still be fine with the regular mint product. I think it comes down to the individual and their preferences/tolerance for flights. To each their zone (literally lol). Either way, JetBlue looks like a top choice flying, especially with the Mint product on transatlantic routes. I can’t wait to try it myself sometime soon. Great review Sam!

[@sergiolaurencio7534]

I think if they have the opportunity to be bigger, they would definitely do. I can't believe they are the best trying and don't get much😔

[@russell7926]

That's interesting what you said about turbulence over the Atlantic. A few years back we flew on an A321 on a flight to Hawaii and had the worst turbulence I've ever been on. A321 has an undersized wing, so I think that's part of that, and it tends to get tossed around more in turbulence. 757 has a much larger wing for its size. After that trip I swore I'll never do anything smaller than a 757 for transoceanic again.

[@danfonseca563]

Yes you are so right..These planes have longer bodies and short wings.Compare to a 747 or 777 the wing surface area is much smaller.This were not meant for transatlantic flights .Trouble is more companies will use these to maximize profits.They care little for passengers comfort.

[@m_swizzy22]

Jet Blue always has meals for purchase in economy. Aside from maybe Alaska, the offerings are MUCH better (and cheaper) than Delta/AA/United. The economy pantry on Jet Blue offers a lot more than the big three in terms of snacks. Honestly, getting a whole can of soda in economy on a JFK to LAX big three flight is like asking for the CEO's first born. It's just how it is.

[@justinwhittington107]

I agree. I think Sam's advocating for Economy is a bit of a reach. He's trying to show how "in touch" he is with the masses but he's not. His Economy reviews are few and far between and he has more private aviation/cargo reviews than any other aviation KZbinr.

[@supernim]

Wow you guys go the extra mile to go and pay for anything. The airline need to go back to serving food on long haul flights. Snacks are not acceptable on these flights. Sam did well by bringing this up.

[@conor8274]

on JFK-LHR economy meals are free- they just have snack boxes for purchase on other routes

[@widget787]

SAS switched their Copenhagen - Washington DC Route to the A321LR today. Due to headwinds todays flight took over 10 (ten!) hours. JetBlues product is just AMAZING. If they expand more into Europe and also to un/underserved cities like OSL, HAM, DUS, BHX or LYS the product would get even more amazing and its all possible with the A321LR/XLR.

It is different seeing the smaller Airbus flying the Atlantic. For me For a single aisle aircraft it is the 757s that I still feel comfortable flying the distance across.

[@LMays-cu2hp]

There have been a few airlines that have used the 757s to fly over the Atlantic. And then flying over the Pacific to Hawaii I still love flying the 757s to Hawaii. Now, up until the pandemic problem British Airways has the smaller all Business Class Airbus 318 flying over the Atlantic that fly into London City Airport. Have to see if they are still flying with that smaller aircraft with the present and soon I hope getting back to the new normal of flying. I still like the 757s aircraft to fly long haul. I do admire the flyers that like the Airbus narrow bodies flying the distance. We also have many flyers who have their small corporate private jets to fly the long haul distance. That is very nice to fly the Gulfstream with others like that corporate jets over the large oceans and that is a treat!!

Hi Sam, great review. I thought the product was functional and comfortable. The the on-board welcome in LA was really flat, just too informal and felt like I was being greeted at a Pizza-Hut. The JFK to Heathrow was not too different, functional and comfortable. The flight atmosphere lacked the panache of international travel; I felt like was on-board the Euroliner going from London to Brussel. Overall, the product was comfortable, clean, and functional. But, given my choice I would pay more for a premium carrier like United. I still love your first video in 2007 aboard the A380 being served a dry-ice coconut. The best video KZbin. Cheers, Sam...

You make a comment about turbulence on the transatlantic sector maybe being worse in a smaller airplane. I would dispel that myth - my crossing back and forth on Oct 31 and Nov 9 were some of the roughest crossings ever, the approach to London being especially lurch-some. This was on BA 787-8.
