Back in 2019, JetBlue introduced Blue Basic, which is the carrier’s version of basic economy. In this post, I’d like to take a look at these fares. What restrictions are there when booking JetBlue’s basic economy fares, and are these tickets worth it?
JetBlue’s basic economy fares can represent a pretty good value, and are certainly competitive with what’s offered by Delta, which is JetBlue’s biggest competitor in many markets. Separately, I’ve covered similar fares offered by Alaska, American, Delta, and United.
Airline revenue management is quite an art, and it’s all about getting as much revenue as possible from each customer. Basic economy fares are a major part of that.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
