JetBlue Airways

Advantages: Amazing prices, Fast & Efficient, A pleasure to fly!
Disadvantages: Tacky TV (a pro in my book!), limited (but growing) routes

...If you're thinking about travelling any distance in the United States, my advice to you would be to fly. And if you're thinking about flying in the United States, my advice would be to fly Jet Blue! Not exactly a house-hold name in the UK, JetBlue is a rising star in the USA (and in my opinion, they deserve to go stratospheric!) They're a Budget Airline, operating a growing number of routes across continental US.

Disadvantages: Can be expensive if not booked well in advance

...I you have never heard of Jet Blue, don’t be too surprised. They are an American Domestic airline who flies out of their hub at JFK airport in New York. Why we ended up flying with them was more by chance than any degree of forward planning. As always, there’s a story attached to this so I’ll start from the beginning! We were in New York on a buying trip for my friends business and we needed to source the products we were buying and then fly to the appropriate place to finalise the deal. Because we had no idea of where we were going to be from one day to the next we had to make our flight reservations normally the day before taking off. Therein lay the problem. We had planned for the sort of prices we could be expecting to pay for flights before leaving the UK, but forgot to take 2 things into account (which I’ll come onto... Read review
