JetBlue’s Domestic and International Core Cabin Honored with Editors’ Choice Award
JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced it has been recognized by The Points Guy (TPG) with an Editors’ Choice Award for Best Economy Class, across both categories of domestic and international airlines. This is the third time JetBlue, known for its low fares and great service, has won the coveted award and marks the airline’s sixth Editors’ Choice Award since 2018.
Curated by the distinguished editors of the leading consumer travel platform, TPG’s highly competitive awards honor excellence in airlines, travel and credit cards.
“At JetBlue, we believe that a great experience and a low fare should be synonymous as we introduce our onboard experience and the JetBlue effect to more markets across the globe,” said Joanna Geraghty, president and chief operating officer, JetBlue. “This recognition as an industry leader comes at a pivotal time for JetBlue, as we continue to grow and challenge the Big Four, bringing more competition into the market.”
To ‘Sale-ebrate’ this award, and for a limited time, JetBlue is offering a flash sale through midnight, tonight, where travelers can snag fares as low as $25 one-way on select flights across the airline’s network, for travel on select dates in 2022 and 2023.

“The Points Guy editorial team and myself are thrilled to honor the best in travel, credit cards and loyalty programs.

JetBlue – currently the sixth largest airline in the U.S. — is known for its industry-leading core experience, which allows every customer to have the most legroom in coach (a), live television and on-demand entertainment on every seatback, free and fast Fly-Fi broadband internet (b), complimentary snacks and soft drinks and award-winning customer service. The airline has continued to push boundaries and deliver a best-in-class experience in their core cabin across its fleet including:
- Airbus A321 Long Range (LR): Reimagined for transatlantic flying, this aircraft offers customers attentive, boutique-style service, while also ensuring ample personal space, larger overhead bins, customized lighting and a design that gives the cabin a wide-body feel. All of the comforts JetBlue customers have come to expect are further enhanced by the airline’s partnership with New York-based restaurant group Dig to bring its signature build-your-own dining concept to tray tables at 35,000 feet – JetBlue’s first complimentary meal in core.
- Airbus A321neo with Mint: JetBlue’s first aircraft to feature its reimagined Mint® premium experience, with 16 fully lie-flat, private suites and elevated core experience with 144 core seats, including seven rows of Even More Space seating. The residential design choices set a new standard for transcontinental flying with every aspect of the aircraft meticulously customized to create a perfect environment to deliver JetBlue’s award-winning service, including a re-designed self-service snack and beverage area, The Pantry®, and much more.
- Airbus A220: A next-generation aircraft, JetBlue’s A220 combines style and substance with its game-changing economics and custom-created cabin design. The aircraft’s strong economics and operational performance are a key to JetBlue’s long-term cost performance, while also enabling more sustainable flying, greater flexibility to support JetBlue’s network strategy, and the introduction of its all-new onboard experience to more customers. A first for the airline, it includes a two-by-three seating configuration, custom LED mood lighting onboard and 140 seats with an expanded width, offering the widest seats for a single aisle aircraft and across JetBlue’s fleet.
This recognition comes as JetBlue announces a new TrueBlue® program, and continues to expand its transatlantic network, recently announcing plans to launch nonstop service to Paris.
