Recent Experience Flying JetBlue? Happy?
 
I am considering flying JetBlue for a two hour direct flight, RDU to Logan. I know about their problems last winter, but what has your recent experience been with them? Thanks in advance! :)

elsiemoo, I fly them from Florida to NY fairly often. I also read about the problem during last winter's snowstorm, but I've always been pleased with their service.

I flew with them over Christmas. Absolute busiest travel days of the year and everything was perfect. On time and great customer service. Love the TV's...really worth a couple extra bucks!

Perfect experiences for Thanksgiving, JFK to Phoenix and for Christmas, JFK to Sarasota.

My mother-in-law was not sold, however, on her flight from White Plains, NY to West Palm Beach (very much delayed into the wee hours...)

I love them!

I fly them frequently. Just flew from Boston to Orlando this past week. I always try to fly with them if I can. They have their issues like any other airline, but the extra leg room and the Direct TV simply cannot be beat. And I like their snacks :)

My complaint about Jet Blue is that now they are more expensive than most other flights I can get to the same destinations.

I love flying Jet Blue. The seats are very comfortable and the flight attendants are always so friendly and seem to enjoy their job. Of course the individual tv's are fantastic.

On a recent flight from Pittsburgh to Boston, the flight was delayed due to rain/fog in the NE. They set up at the gate while we waited, bowls of ice cubes, cans of soda and baskets of snacks - all for free. I thought it was very nice.

I've never had a problem flying JetBlue.

I've flown from Ft Lauderdale to Kennedy and/or La Guardia severa times and have always been on time.

They're a great airline and seem to have fun working.

In an effort to get a few planes off the ground in bad weather, they had a bad experience. That doesn't cxhnge the fact that they're excellent.

Thank you, everybody, for all your comments. JetBlue it will be!!! :)

Any other comments are welcome ...

I fly JetBlue often, several times every month, to Florida, Vegas and the Left Coast, and I've never had a problem.

Gotta love JetBlue!
