For the Fifth Time, JetBlue Receives TPG Award
Honoring its Domestic and International Core Experience
JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced it has been recognized by
The Points Guy with a TPG Award for Best Economy Class across U.S.
airlines, including for its transatlantic service. This is the
fifth time JetBlue has won the coveted award and marks the
airline’s eighth TPG Award since 2018. These competitive awards
honor excellence across the travel industry as determined by The
Points Guy’s esteemed editorial staff.
“With travel hitting a record high this year, consumers are
eager to find the companies making every stage of the travel
journey easier and more enjoyable,” said Brian Kelly, Founder of
The Points Guy. “The companies we’re celebrating this year are not
only meeting these heightened expectations, but far exceeding them,
with programs and offerings around the world that make planning,
booking, flying and unwinding easier than ever.”
"Competitors have tried time and again to replicate the JetBlue
experience, but customers know that our exceptional onboard
product, paired with the outstanding service of our crewmembers, is
truly hard to match,” said Jayne O’Brien, JetBlue’s head of
marketing and customer support. “Being recognized by The Points
Guy—a trusted name in travel—reinforces our commitment to
delivering great service at low fares and proves the experience we
provide to customers searching for travel, including to Europe,
surpasses other carriers. Moving forward, we’re excited to keep
introducing new products and perks that our customers love.”
JetBlue’s industry-leading core experience—its take on economy
class—offers every customer to experience seatback entertainment at
every seat; free, fast and unlimited Fly-Fi broadband internet1;
complimentary, brand-name snacks and drinks; and award-winning
customer service. This year, the airline reached new milestones as
it continued to push boundaries and deliver a best-in-class
experience:
- A Boost for Blue Basic: JetBlue gave a boost to its
basic economy fare by allowing customers to bring a complimentary
carry-on bag with purchase of a Blue Basic fare this fall. This
change made JetBlue’s basic economy offering one of the industry’s
best values for price-conscious consumers, boosting the value and
experience of all core customers.
- EvenMore in Core: JetBlue announced plans to evolve its
Even More Space extra legroom seat into a compelling new product
with enhanced amenities and perks. Launching in 2025, EvenMore will
elevate the premium leisure experience while offering customers the
enhanced comfort of the extra legroom seating they already know and
love. More details surrounding EvenMore will be revealed in the
coming weeks.
- Enhanced Personalization: In April 2024, Blueprint by
JetBlue™ debuted to give customers new personalization features on
JetBlue’s award-winning touchscreen entertainment system, including
group watch parties, saved favorites, content recommendations and
more. Blueprint gives customers a bespoke inflight experience, not
only throughout their current journey, but extending into their
next flights for a more customized experience.
- Expanded Service: In 2024, JetBlue brought its
award-winning core experience to new European destinations with
nonstop seasonal service from New York (JFK) to Edinburgh Airport
(EDI), nonstop seasonal service from New York and Boston Logan
Airport (BOS) to Dublin Airport (DUB), and nonstop daily service
from Boston to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG). JetBlue also
continued to reinforce its position as a leader in leisure travel
on the East Coast by expanding in New England to serve new markets
and adding more flights on some of its most popular leisure
routes.
