    I think no lounge is ok, if you’re already paying less with no points or anything like that for a LIE FLAT SEAT, I think it cancels out the “no lounge access”. Great video Jeb and Suzanne!

      Yeah, can make your own lounge at home with the money youre saving, get a nice wine and some good food and home is way more comfy anyway. A lounge is only useful if you're connecting flights or just want to get to the airport real early imo.

      Absolutely. The lie flat seat is everything, especially if you are flying TO Europe, which is usually a redeye. With my various credit cards, I can almost always find lounge access. But finding an affordable lie flat seat is key.

    Hey Jeb and Suzanne! I was your lead crewmember on board and like I said then it was an honor to have you on board. As soon as I saw you my little airline nerd heart lit up with joy! I'd be more than happy to welcome you back on board any of my Trans-Atlantic flights again. This also happened to be my very first working flight in the Trans-Atlantic catalogue, and as the lead of course, so it makes me incredibly happy to hear how much you enjoyed the service myself and the other crew could provide for you. Hope to see you in the great blue skies again soon. Cheers!

    As you experienced, most mainstream lounges these days are so crowded that they're not really worth it. Unless it's one of the luxury lounges from like the Middle Eastern airlines, with a la carte food and table service and such, I'd gladly skip it if it meant a noticeably cheaper ticket. I'd honestly skip most of the perks on the plane, too. For the most part, I'm just paying for the larger seat, not free booze and free checked bags that I don't even use anyway.

I don’t know how I’d feel about that long a trip on a single aisle aircraft, since I’ve never done it before. Your seat did look a bit tight to me. A lounge for me is just an added frill, unless you have a serious wait time or a delay. A British expat watching in Florida.

    I do not have a positive opinion of any airline.
    Except for jet blue, they really are different. I once had a 3 hour delay flying to the Bahamas, and not only did a wonderful staff member spend those three hours calmly explaining the situation, the solution they had, and doing so with a smile, but they also brought us waters/sodas, and even a sandwich. I was in economy, I wouldn’t have gotten a sandwich if everything had gone well.
    That’s the only delay/issue I’ve ever had with them, and they went above and beyond to make things right. It’s a great company, support and fly them when you can.

    I started visiting the Schiphol "sky Deck" back in the mid 1970's. The airport was a fraction of the size then then it is today. My dad flew for business often and with one car in the family (very typical for Dutch families back then), we'd be there to pick him up after his mulli-week business trips. A visit to the Sky Deck was a great way to kill time and the excitement of seeing the airplanes come and go. With my dad working for Fokker, I grew up around aircraft. We could see the factory on the far side of the airport. Great memories. I also remember when they added the train station opposite the arrival hall, in what was formerly the parking lot. Then in the 1990's they extended the arrival hall to completely cover the train station so it's now integral with the airport.

    We flew JetBlue Mint from Boston to London earlier this year, and agree with most of your comments. The only real issue was that the food ordering system on board crashed TWICE before any service, so it might just as well have not existed! For us, the small seat size (compared to business flights on other carriers) is a killer - we both needed more space than was available in the lie-flat - and the larger suites weren't on that plane unfortunately.

    I don't see a lack of lounge access as a problem at all. I think the lack of lounge access is more of a problem for people who have come to expect a lounge as an essential part of their travel experience and who, probably, can more easily afford to live life a little more luxuriously. JetBlue's offer of a business class experience at a cheaper price appeals to people like me who are in the lower middle class and for whom this kind of experience would be nothing less than an indulgence. Thanks for sharing your experience Jeb and Suzanne. It definitely is useful information given in an entertaining way.

    Hi Jeb and Suzanne: I love your channel and watch it all the time! I know this comment is a little out of date for this particular video but my wife and I just flew JetBlue Mint from Boston to Paris and then back again, all within a week (to go to a wedding in the south of France). It was a very good experience and flights in both directions. Flying "Mint" is definitely a major step up from being cramped in coach (and obviously quite a bit more expensive too). I love the "pod" that you get in Mint with almost total privacy, once you close the aisle door. I'm 6'2" and had just enough room to lie completely flat, although the pod is relatively narrow. We flew overnight from Boston to Paris (leaving Boston around 8:15 PM and arriving in Paris at 9:15 AM (Paris time), so I was able to get some sleep (and I usually don't sleep well on planes). We were served dinner going over and lunch coming back (daytime flight on the return trip from Paris). The food was very good and quite filling (excellent desserts!) and free drinks are always a nice perk. The service was excellent and the entertainment system and large screen monitor were both very good. All in all, a nice way to take the trip across the Atlantic!

    I have flown JetBlue Mint, and I don't miss lounge access a bit. Airport lounges have become terribly overcrowded, and remember there's no such thing as a free lunch. Fighting crowds in airport lounges just to eat substandard food is not my cup of tea. As you found on this flight, JetBlue's Mint meal service is excellent. So for me, getting on the plane with an appetite to enjoy their good food is a bonus.

    Travel day is so hectic, I try to minimize as much as possible the time at the airport - so for me, a lounge is not a big deal. If it meant a lower fare because of the lack of a lounge, count me in!!!!! Great video (as they always are)!

    That Lounge Question is good one! With more and more Airlines unbundling Lounge Access in their Fares is interesting! Back in the day to get into a Lounge, one had to fly in First or Business Class and be given an invite by that Airline - QF had The Captains Club this all before Loyalty Programs!! My Personal preference is if I am paying for a Business Class fare I expect Lounge Access. The Irony of my comment is the Airline I work for doesn't offer a Lounge Proposition on what I would call our Flagship International Route CNS/HND which is discontinuing in February next year. Jeb and Suzanne Keep up the Great Work!! Love You both and your frankly honest videos!!

    Hi Jeb and Suzanne, thank you for this latest review. In terms of your lounge question, being an Australian, you know that to get to Europe we have a choice of Singapore, Dubai or Doha. Those first 8 or 12 hours enable a clear break and with lounge access, a shower is great to face the next 12/14 hours. Flying across,the Atlantic, the 6/7 hours mean that
    you are at a probable destination and the need for a shower is less evident, the Jet Blue option is one I would exercise with alacrity and faced with large queue to get into a crowded lounge, I would do what you guys did: skip it. I think,the relatively low score for this service due to lack of a lounge was perhaps a bit severe with apparent good food, OK seats, service and a splendid cost.
    When are you guys coming back to Australia, let us know and we will organise a get together with know reviewers and hordes of your aviation fans ( plus drinks)

    Jet Blue is able to offer great fares and excellent onboard service due to the fact they don't operate a lounge.

    I'd say lounge access is more important when you have a few hours during a stopover when it is nice to relax, maybe shower, charge your devices and get some work done from them. From your departing airport, especially one with plenty of restaurants and cafes like Schiphol, they are less crucial. The food/coffee is better in them than in most lounges anyway.

    We flew round trip Boston to Dublin last summer on Mint. We're hard-core first class travelers if the flight is longer than two hours. The westbound trip is always fine, no matter what airline, but the eastbound trip is brutal, the older I get. British Airways is probably the best, but very pricy. Virgin is pretty good, though on the eastbound flight, for a good price. And, they have a really nice first-class lounge at the departure airports.

    New Jeb video! As always, you and Susan do a great job with being objective with your reviews!
    As for the lounge, I've never flown international (want to someday) so I've never used a lounge. The longest time I've spent in an airport was 5.5 hours (O'Hare) and I was able to walk around to see the cool stuff there and find some good seats to use my computer when needed. For me, I don't need a lounge because I enjoy walking around airports to stretch my legs and see what there is, but that's not to say I wouldn't ever use one if I had the opportunity. Maybe one day!

    Honestly As a New Yorker, we love to fly JetBlue Having access to a lounge is a perk, however , to be able to experience “Mint” for a reasonable price and great food and service as well as comfort , to me certainly is more important than sitting in a lounge at an airport Also, as you have pointed out many times, JetBlue has a fleet of newer planes The WiFi is superb , live tv and a very nice cabin crew and flight crew take precedence over a lounge to sit in while you wait to board I was a bit disappointed that having a designated lounge would make the JetBlue experience only 19/25 on the “Jeb score” The service seemed so wonderful on your flight , all the “special” touches as well as great meals I think definitely were more important than a crowded lounge

    I was in Amsterdam earlier this month and decided to swing by the Panorama Terrace as part of my trip. I'm so glad it was highlighted here because it's such a good call for plane spotting! There's also a nice restaurant area up there too if you're looking for a bite to eat. Loved this video!

    I think for lounge access, it really depends on the length of flight - if short-haul, you'd probably want to enjoy all the benefits as much as possible so a lounge would 100% be worth arriving early for! However, if I was on a long-haul, I think the additional room/lie-flat bed and in-flight package outweighs the importance of the lounge.
