    Definitely the best business class service I've seen on a U.S. domestic flight, but that sock and the crumbs... YIKES!! (I'm sure someone at JetBlue watches these UA-cam flight reports, and will doubtlessly do a course correction when he sees this.)

      I bet JetBlue will definitely address whoever is doing the cabin cleaning at LAX regarding this. Which is a good thing, especially if it brings a change from that happening again. One of my first jobs was cleaning airplane interiors. It's not an easy job, especially when trying to do a quick turn. I'm sure they are short staffed as well. I definitely would have gotten that sock removed. 🤮

    The new JetBlue Mint Suites are amazing. The $199 up charge for the Mint Studio is worth it if you want more storage space, and a wider bed. The buddy seat folds into part of the bed when you recline into sleep mode. I was actually able to roll around in the seat when I was sleeping! It’s definitely the best seat to fly in for when traveling across the country. Way better than (Delta One 😬)

    If the seat were oriented so that you could look out the window and if they'd do a proper job of cleaning, this would have been a near-perfect flight. JetBlue isn't going to change the seating in the near future, but hopefully they'll do a better job of cleaning the plane.

    Have to try this out myself Scott! I love Mint and am just not sold on this new product frankly.

    Definitely agree with you on the meal. Very good. I flew this service last week. But i was not really a fan of the seat. As you point out very narrow and after a while i started to feel very closed in, in not a good way. I would have preferred in the design of the seat they used some of that overly large table space to increase the width of the seat. First world problems I understand, but it could use some tweaking, especially as they start going transatlantic. And agreed on the inward facing design. That's why I skipped Virgin Atlantic in their older configuration

    Watch a collision impact test of those angled seats. Your head and neck get whipped around significantly. You arms and legs flail. IF you ever get a high speed overrun into an engineered material arresting area at the end of a runway you are going to hurt something fierce sitting in one of those angled seats. A 4 point harness isn't going to stop the head movement, but it would limit some of the undesirable body movements in an unexpected severe deceleration.
    We are getting a lot better at avoiding some of the usual very violent controlled flight into ground situations in which airliners tumble tail over nose while spinning around the roll axis, but expect in the future more of the severe along the roll axis front to back deceleration situations and severe along the yaw axis downward vertical impact force situations. These angled seats aren't advancing any safety in regards to those types of impacts.

    Sorry but I have flown Mint 3 times; to and from London and JFK. This guy is really knitpicky. It is so great. I'm a big girl and even though it isn't "comfortable", it's better than coach. The food is really good and the flight attendants are just that...attentive. I drop a package of Purell wipes down a hole I couldn't reach. They may still be there. I did inform the crew. I just don't think this is accurate; in comparison to coach. I use it mainly because I have chronic back pain. The 6 hour layover at JFK (I flew from Cleveland) was AGONY.

    Omg the sock!! And crumbs!! Ick 🥴 I wonder how they would have handled that if you would have said something right then to a flight attendant? But everything else looked amazing! I normally fly southwest so this is fancy!!! Lol one thing I am curious about, which I’m sure I can google , is how much the baggage cost. Is there a carry on fee, etc.

      They have never been a Southwest style product even in economy. They don't really really compete much with Southwest. They have always offered IFE, more legroom options, assigned seating, BOB etc. It was their differciator when they started back in 1999/2000.

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  3 роки тому +2

      It took me a while to not think of them as just another low cost carrier as well, but once they introduced their Mint product (in 2014 I believe?), that all changed.

    What's the point of offering a premium product if you can't get into a lounge? US airlines are still ridiculously over-priced for what you get compared to the ME3 and most other airlines' premium products. But, hey if they're willing to put up with it...! My mantra is "There's no prestige in paying too much." Read "being ripped off".

    • @sanspotter
      @sanspotter  3 роки тому

      Normally I’d agree but the seat and service in JetBlue Mint is so good! If they ever come up with a lounge solution, it’s game over for the other airlines.

      They definitely downgraded with the amenity kits they hand out. It used to be packed with more things, including earplugs and a sleeping mask, and this mint flavored face mister which was my favorite thing to use to wake myself up right before we landed. The kit itself used to be a really nice reusable pouch with a zipper. Now it's basically a brown paper bag with a string tie.
      And they downgraded on the meals, too. There used to be an option for dessert, but now everyone gets the same choice, no options.

When I used to fly JetBlue when Mint first came out, we would get an option of ice cream, fruits, or some kind of cake slice, and you could choose one. This time around, the only option was ice cream. Not that I’m complaining! They did a great job with having some of the best airplane meals I’ve ever had.
