Jeb is one of those who actually cares about the viewers, not only about luxury for themselves. Really appreciate it!

[marylandmonroe]

I really appreciate your showing a trip the way most people travel. The first-class fancy trips you usually take are nice, but I'll never be willing to pay that much to get from one place to another.

My son works Jet Blue Mint, he is always on it and guides the newbies. He once squatted next to an older woman to hold her hand during turbulence. He’s saved lives during heart attacks. Jet Blue is forever making changes in rules for flight attendants, but my son is on it.

A big thing with Breeze is that they fly nonstop routes the others don’t. Flew Norfolk- New Orleans two years ago, only 2-1/2 hours versus six hours with a connection. Our E190 was perfectly fine each way.

hey there jeb! jetblue crew member here and i am glad you are enjoying our airline! while i am not too surprised with our grounds crew service, everything else is nothing short of what i know and love us for. keep being awesome and happy jetsetting!

0:40 fun fact, David Neeleman actually had a part in all 3 airlines in this video, CEO and founder of Breeze, founder of JetBlue, and he co-founded morris air which was bought by Southwest. He also is the chairman and founder of Azul Airlines, and helped set up WestJet as well. All of them are pretty good airlines so we have a lot to thank him for in the industry.

Jeb I absolutely love you. Your joy is palatable and I love how your and Susan are staying humble on your very posh and expensive trips. You seem truly amazed and grateful for you're experiences which is lovely.

I flew roundtrip on Southwest to Atlanta last week and it went fine. Never had a problem with Southwest so they are my favorite! It really boils down to the 3 free bags, free snacks, and free entertainment. Definitely wish they had more direct flights from DCA!

So glad to see Jeb finally flying Breeze!

Breeze just added more direct flights to Vero Beach, FL. People here LOVE to go out of Vero Beach. You walk in a small building and check-in, security and on the plane in literally 5 minutes. It's that fast. Now they just announced they are adding New Haven, CT and Newburgh, NY for direct flights to VB here in the fall. Huge news. Breeze goes to the smaller airports where there is a demand for commercial flights.

Jeb's excitement at getting "THE WHOLE CAN!". Can we put that on a t-shirt?

[smp]

Just what I needed. Positive, engaging, informative and honest. And I love the bloopers :)

[ScottWallace]

Love Southwest due to their minimal fees, free checked bags and friendly service and large selection of flights across the states. Would love to try Breeze one day. Great video comparison between them!

[wizardmix]

I had a chance to go cross-continent and back on Breeze via an A220. Really loved it. Flew the extra leg room out and "ascent" on the way back. Honestly, if you can get an exit row on the extra leg room, it's better than ascent. I loved the A220 product and it was one of the better flights I can remember being on. I just haven't had the chance to fly them again but I have a credit with them, maybe I'll do it soon?

[AvgeekA]

I love your videos Jeb. You are the only Youtuber who showcases these lesser-known airlines without worrying about views or the algorithm. I appreciate your work, keep it up!

[joeterra.t]

Lol, I love Jeb's childlike enthusiasm when he realized he got the whole can of ginger ale for free. The whole can! 😄

[JoshuaTheTransitProdigy]

I'm flying on Breeze in November from Savannah to Hartford. I'm totes excited about it honestly! Thanks for the video!!

[savoryexposure]

Breeze recently set up shop here in San Diego so I appreciated seeing them in the list. It’s too bad that you didn’t get the full experience. I’m happy to see that JetBlue didn’t combine with Spirit as we need the competition that they offer. Fun video as always!

[Cockatielcreation]

Yay!!! I've been waiting for this vid for so long, very excited for you to review JetBlue, my favorite airline!!

[cttaylor-beck]

I love watching Jeb and Suzanne just because! They are fun, informative, helpful...but...they are so happy ALL THE TIME. They have my undivided attention with every single video, whether flying, boating, training (lol), bussing, ....they put out 'feel good' videos. I am always smiling at the end of the videos. which I personally feel are too short. Love them!!
