So, I just read that JetBlue is launching a new nonstop route from Boston to Amsterdam starting August 2024. Pretty exciting stuff! They've been expanding a lot across the Atlantic lately. I think it's their third European destination after London and Paris. JetBlue's Mint class is supposed to be amazing for these long-haul flights. Anyone else curious about how they'll compete with the bigger carriers? Also, they're using their A321LRs for this route. I've heard good things about those planes, but can they really match up to the wide-bodies on comfort? I mean, it's a long flight. Anyone planning to try it out, or have thoughts on how JetBlue's transatlantic service compares to others? I'd love to hear what you guys think.
JetBlue's New Route: Boston to Amsterdam - What Do You Think?
JetBlue's move into Amsterdam is interesting. Their Mint class has gotten great reviews, so that's a plus for long-hauls. But yeah, the A321LR is a narrow-body, and some folks might miss the space of a wide-body. Depends if you prioritize cabin comfort or price. I've flown their Mint to London, and it was solid. Wonder how they'll handle the competition, especially with KLM and Delta dominating that route. Anyone know how JetBlue's pricing stacks up against them?
