3 New JetBlue Onboard Perks In Time For Summer 2024

Following

JetBlue just announced a few new onboard perks available to passengers starting this summer. Specifically, travelers have ample access to personalizable in-flight entertainment and more complimentary snack options. These perks benefit solo travelers, families with children, or friends who enjoy the brand-new watch party feature for award-winning films and binge worthy shows.

Blueprint by JetBlue

On select flights with touchscreen TVs, flyers can personalize their viewing experience. Members can sign in and access the following amenities:

  • Watch shows and movies with up to five travel companions in sync
  • Continue watching unfinished content on future Blueprint-equipped flights
  • Receive personalized entertainment recommendations
  • Designate customizable volume, language, parental controls, and more
  • View real-time flight status and gate details
  • Customize transatlantic meals with just a few button clicks

This feature is available on most restyled Airbus 320s. In addition, Blueprint by JetBlue is available on the carrier’s Airbus A321, A321LR (Long Range), and A220 fleet.

All personal information is encrypted and forgotten after six months without completing a Blueprint-equipped flight. Further, signing in is optional to partake in the watch party feature or to enjoy the in-flight entertainment without saving personal preferences.

More Award-Winning Films

An airline’s in-flight entertainment is only as good as its catalog selection. The JetBlue on-demand library is expanding with its A24 Collection partnership of award-winning and nominated films.

Some titles of interest include:

  • Close
  • Dream Scenario
  • Everything Everywhere All At Once
  • Priscilla
  • The Disaster Artist
  • The Whale

JetBlue is also celebrating seasonal service to Edinburgh by launching the “Great Scots” content selection. It features popular Scottish films, including Brave, Skyfall, and select Harry Potter films.

New Complimentary Snacks

Since May 1, Partake’s Classic Grahams have been the newest sweet complimentary snack available to all flyers. Further, savory snack lovers can enjoy Safe and Fair’s Everything Bagel Pretzel in June.

The airline also expands its liquor offerings by featuring ALB Vodka and new mixer options from Owen’s Craft Mixers. Both alcoholic beverages are available for purchase on all flights.

Summary

With summer travel ramping up, these JetBlue amenities can improve the flight experience on domestic and international flights. Personalizing in-flight entertainment and starting watch parties can help long trips go smoothly and create excellent conversation topics.
