JetBlue's Promise Program Offers Flight Refunds

Filed under: Wings

JetBlue Airways is showing that they are sensitive to those suffering in this economy. They will be providing refunds to those who lost their jobs after they already planned trips. The Jet Blue Promise Program says JetBlue customers who book flights between February 1 and June 1 and then lose their jobs on or after February 17 could be eligible for a full refund. The travelers will have to request the refund at least two weeks ahead of the travel date. JetBlue is hoping that this will encourage those who may be on the fence about traveling due to job insecurity worries to make travel plans anyway.

The Ultimate Airline Perk: In-Flight Email Access

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Services, Wings

No matter how rich you are and no matter what kind of perks the airlines may offer you in first class to make your flight more comfortable, there's one thing that they've never offered no matter who you are: mid-flight wi-fi internet access.

JetBlue is changing that. They aren't offering enough bandwidth to surf the net necessarily, but just enough to make checking and sending emails through Blackberries and other devices, even laptops, possible. The new perk is now being offered on select flights only, on a trial basis. But JetBlue expects within about six months to be rolling out internet access company-wide.
