No Matter Where You’re Sitting, JetBlue is the
Best U.S. Airline, Says The Points Guy
JetBlue Sweeps Editor’s Choice Awards for
Domestic Travel at First-Ever NYC Event
JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced it has been recognized by
The Points Guy with awards for Best Domestic Economy Class (Airbus
A321 Core) and Best Domestic Business Class (Mint). JetBlue was the
only airline – domestically and globally – to win awards for both
economy and business. The wins underscore JetBlue’s long-standing
commitment to offering the very best customer experience in the
sky.
“No matter where you sit on a JetBlue flight, your experience
will be the best in the industry and we thank The Points Guy for
sharing that message with even more travelers who we hope to
welcome aboard soon,” said Ian Deason, senior vice president
customer experience, JetBlue. “These awards are a testament to the
investment JetBlue makes in our customers, our crewmembers, our
aircraft and every part of the travel experience.”
The Points Guy (TPG) is a trusted travel and lifestyle media
platform that focuses on maximizing travel experiences while
minimizing spending. Through an informative, clever point of view,
TPG has become the leading online resource for all things points,
miles and resourceful travel experiences. This week, The Points Guy
Brian Kelly hosted the first-ever TPG Awards at a star-studded
event held on The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New
York.
The recognitions come as JetBlue is doubling down on the “cabin
of your dreams” in Core with newly restyled Airbus A320 aircraft
featuring the most legroom in coach (a) with better seats, bigger
televisions, more channels, free Fly-Fi broadband and streaming
entertainment on all aircraft (b). The Points Guy highlights some
of these customer-friendly features in its award review:
“A modern cabin, industry-leading legroom and
top-notch IFE options are just a few reasons JetBlue beat out the
rest of the major domestic airlines in the economy category. Based
on hard product alone, it’ll be hard to top [JetBlue] next
year.”
At the same time, the airline continues to expand premium Mint
flights on cross-country routes and in the Caribbean and Latin
America. JetBlue now operates more than 80 daily Mint flights in 15
JetBlue cities. On most of these routes, JetBlue is the only
airline to offer regularly scheduled flights with a lie flat seat.
And with Mint’s tapas style dining, amenity kits by Hayward and
Hopper, dessert from local artisanal ice cream makers and dedicated
hospitality trained crewmembers, The Points Guy says JetBlue is
leading the industry:
“Hands down, JetBlue features the best
business-class product for a domestic airline. A private suite for
a cross-country flight? We’ll take it! Combine a phenomenal seat
with friendly service and tasty food, and you’ve got a winning
formula that has put other domestic carriers on defense.”
