The decisions that The Bi-Coastals need to make. To New York on a commercial flight and return Friday on JetSmarter, or ??? Hmmm… decisions, decisions.
Thanks to The Doctor and maybe even the The Architect for giving us regular reports on the state of JetBlue Mint, because not all flights are created equal. I think we can safely say, it is their preferred commercial service when not taking JetSmarter for the commute to the other coast, that says a lot.
Flight Report by: The Doctor
Feb 28: LAX – JFK Flight: B624 / JBU24
Suite 4A, a “Throne” seat
Staff was great. 4.75/5
The early inflight meal was 3/5
This was the first time that I’ve attempted to sleep in a lay flat seat in a mint pod, not good, I couldn’t find a comfortable position. There is an odd height difference between the seat cushion and the footrest when the seat flattens out. My guess is that an evil chiropractor designed this torture device.
