Avoid This HUGE JetBlue Mint MISTAKE

Our family recently flew nearly 6 hours from New York to Los Angeles on JetBlue Mint. If you want to fly JetBlue Mint as well, there’s one really important mistake you need to avoid when booking. In this video, I'll tell you what it is, and exactly how much we paid for this flight!

We have never flown 1st or business class. The closet is JetBlue extra legroom seats 💺 so appreciate these vids. Funny. I like the look of the cabin you say is the 1st mistake. Thanks so much.

I actually prefer the old mint cabins lay out. There are less seats. It makes it feel more intimate, and there is no charge for the larger thrown seat. The new mint cabin does not have many more benefits to it other than the ife in my opinion. It’s also nice if you are flying as a group of three like you are in this video to book a throne seat and then a double seat in front. Even if you are flying in a group of four heaven, the first four seats in this cabin is very nice. That is just my opinion and experience

I wish they would be honest about the cost up front. You get to checkout and there is a Jetblue fee that can match the price of the ticket when I was booking to London. Didn't fly them. Felt deceived.

How’s the on board services when comparing to other airlines? I’m looking to book a flight to London. I’m interested to know if you would fly JetBlue, virgin atlantic, United, or delta?

I am normally on Delta or United. However, I purchased a Mint seat for me via the Chase Portal, to earn extra UW Points. Since I didn't book via JetBlue, I can't reserve the "throne" seat. Bummer...

I Have Experience JetBlue Mint Class On A321LR London-New York I Like The Product.Great Trip Report

Pretty sure they use the old mint cabin on domestic only. We used it from Mia-Sfo and lax-Mia on the way back. It was okay I think the only difference is the lie flat seat compared to other domestic if you’re comparing service, food, ife and planes. If I had a late flight that I needed to rest on it’s great but I would have been fine with delta 🤷🏻‍♀️ good review, thanks.

I will say JetBlue’s Mint business really shines on the flights to Europe. It’s relatively affordable compared to a business product on any other airline. The normal seats are perfectly fine on a cross country domestic trip, and even the slight upgrade for more space or an emergency exit row seat are very much worth it on flights longer than 4 hours like NYC-West Coast or FLL/MIA-West Coast. On Europe bound flights, Mint is a solid product because its better than Premium Economy on other airlines for Premium Economy pricing.

JetBlue Mint is great most of the time. Last time I had a very bad stewardess that made it a bad time.

We just arrived in LAX after a terrible JetBlue Mint experience. Basically 4.5 hours of delay and then no one notified us that there was NO FOOD on the 6 hours of transcontinental flight. A horrible experience. Just another example of the poor state of air service in the US. It sucked, don't fly JetBlue, it's a very poor value at best!!!

So Jetblue has stated that Jetblue Mint is an ONBOARD experience. That's primarily why they don't have any lounges. I don't understand why people don't get this.

However, with the launch of flights to Europe...Jetblue will introduce lounges in the future at airports that have Mint Flights.

Now when it comes on to plane food. Regardless of airline. Please be aware this is literally frozen food that you can buy at the supermarket😅😅😅.
The food is literally kept refrigerated in a warehouse before it's loaded onto a plane with dry ice. It's then placed in an oven....like a microwave and warmed up for like 18mns.
Every time I see people review these meals I chuckle...because if yall see what they look and smells like before being heated up....yall wouldn't eat it....regardless of airline.
....
This is hilarious .... the secrets I could tell...
