JetBlue offers $US599 unlimited pass

August 17th, 2009 Written by James DOWNIE

US carrier JetBlue Airways is offering a $US599 (£362) for one-month unlimited travel in a promotion to win over more passengers and to improve sluggish passenger numbers for the airline industry.

The pass, available until August 21, allows ticket holders to travel to any of the airlines 56 destinations in the US, Caribbean and South America, and is valid between September 8 and October 8 this year with no blackout dates and available on every available seat.

Flights can be booked up three days before they travel.  If they cancel or change their flights in less than three days before the flight, they are subjected to a $100 free.

In order to purchase the pass, customers must enrol in TrueBlue, JetBlue’s loyalty program.

Recent statistics show JetBlue’s load factor fell 0.5 percent in July, along with most other airlines as business travel contracts and unemployment in the US approaches 10 percent.

New York-based JetBlue flies to destinations in the United States, South America and Caribbean.  The pass includes fees for domestic flights but not for taxes on international services
