Frequently asked questions

Can I choose my seat when I book a JetBlue domestic flight?

Yes! If you’re flying on a Blue, Blue Plus, Blue Extra or Mint fare, you can pick your seat as soon as you book.

Blue Basic doesn’t include advance seat selection, but you can pay to choose a seat or wait until check-in (24 hours before departure) to get one for free.

Travelling as a group? It’s worth selecting seats early to sit together.

Is Wi-Fi really free on every JetBlue domestic flight?

Yes. JetBlue is the only major US airline offering free, high-speed WiFi on every seat, on every domestic flight. It works from gate to gate and supports streaming, browsing, emails and even video calls.

What food and drinks do I get in economy on JetBlue’s domestic flights?

You’ll get a selection of brand-name snacks (like Biscoff cookies and Goldfish crackers), soft drinks, juices, and Dunkin’ coffee - all included.

On domestic flights over two hours, you can also buy EatUp snack boxes for a more filling option. Mint passengers get full, restaurant-style meals and premium drinks.

Can I travel with a pet on JetBlue domestic flights?

Yes! Small cats and dogs are allowed in the cabin on most JetBlue domestic flights, as long as they’re in a soft-sided carrier that fits under the seat. There’s a pet fee of $125 each way. Mosaic members can select a pet fee waiver as part of their perks.

Does JetBlue have first class on domestic flights?

Not in the traditional sense. JetBlue’s premium cabin is called Mint, which is more like a lie-flat business class than the recliner-style domestic first class you might see on other airlines.

Mint is only available on select longer domestic routes, like New York to LA or Boston to San Francisco. A new product called Mini Mint (with plush recliners) is launching from 2026.

What’s the difference between JetBlue’s fare types for domestic flights?

There are five main options:

  • Blue Basic: Cheapest, but no carry-on or seat selection
  • Blue: Includes seat selection and a carry-on
  • Blue Plus: Adds one free checked bag
  • Blue Extra: Includes early boarding, priority security and free flight changes
  • Mint: All the perks, plus lie-flat seats and two 70-lb bags

Booking with Alternative Airlines? You’ll see exactly what’s included with each fare, and can filter by what matters to you.

What happens if the overhead bins are full on my JetBlue domestic flight?

If you booked a fare that includes a carry-on and there’s no space left, JetBlue will gate-check your bag for free and give you a $25 travel credit. This applies to Blue, Blue Plus, Blue Extra and Mint fares.

How do families benefit from JetBlue’s TrueBlue program on domestic flights?

TrueBlue lets you pool points with up to 7 friends or family members, with no transfer fees and no restrictions. Starting in 2026, family travel on domestic flights will also count toward earning elite Mosaic status for the primary account holder.
