Have never flown JetBlue


JetBlue is the best airline I’ve ever been on. When they say they have more leg room than any other airline, they were not joking. I was in coach and thought I was in business class. They must have one less row of seats, and spread that room out to all other seats.

It seems to be the best of the niche airlines.

I didn't get the guy who lumped them in with Spirit as "ultra low cost" on some sort of tier below Southwest.

I'm no Southwest hater by any stretch. I'll take them over any of the legacy carriers in most instances. However, Jet Blue is much more preferable, if its an option.

My only experience with Spirit is witnessing a few in-terminal fiascoes, and that's enough for me.

American tends to have the nicest planes. Love delta but some of their shite flew in Nam.

It’s dangerous to give people coffee, cokes, beers etc but water is totally safe.


frick that. Give me the canned stuff that comes from a bottling line that's cleaned once a day.

How often do you think the potable water tank on that plane is cleaned?

Most places in the US is a four to five hour direct flight, max. People can’t go that long without booze?

I'm fine. I just show up loaded on prescription medication.

a lot cleaner than you'd think, but they only use that to make coffee, hand washing water in the lavs, to soak the hot towels, etc., the water you're served is bottled

Stop being so cheap and American or Delta. If you fly budget airlines you can expect to be treated like a child.

It sucks for most who do follow the rules but there are some hard headed idiots who will try to refuse and they must be treated like children and motivated to act right to get what they want.

I assume the restrictions are theatre. They can pretended their reducing transmission risk, so it’s “safe” to fly.

Had a flight attendant wake me up last night at 1115 to tell me to cover my nose.

United isn't bad if you have status. I haven't had to sit in steerage in 2 years and I only buy economy tickets. They treat you pretty nice up at the front of the plane.
