I’m no stranger to JetBlue Mint, but I was slightly apprehensive in the days leading up to this flight. Would it be as good as it was the last time I experienced it? It was no doubt a concern since it would be the exact same product it was they day they launched it so many years ago.
Thankfully, I’m happy to report that Mint is still my favorite premium/business class product in all the US. The cabins are still spotless and clean, and the service amazing.
This is footage from flight 190, A321 service between San Diego (SAN) and New York (JFK) back in late November 2019. The aircraft registration was N990JL, and I was seated in 4A for the 5 hour flight.

I have not had the pleasure to experience MINT yet. Hope they continue to expand it into more cities.

@sanspotter 4 года назад

You definitely have to try it! It’s a shame they don’t offer it on more routes, but at least they have been expanding beyond just JFK-LAX/SFO.

@triple7marc 4 года назад

SANspotter They now have it between SFO and FLL!! I’m taking Mint next month between those cities :))

@perrrofrrredy 3 года назад

Where would you like to see more routes to from jetblue?

@gamr3030 2 года назад

Im flying jetblue from jfk to orlando international but to my knowledge there's no mint. Plus it'd be a waste for a 2 and 1/2 hour flight

@pokpok97642 4 года назад

You don't swing the camera around yourself or the public, nor be obnoxious around people, which still works pretty well since your voiceovers are high quality and calming. You don't sound overexciting or boring, you also have the right tone of cheery and witty. You keep the viewer entretained, make a few jokes, while still contributing a professional and well-rounded report. Just my opinion :)

@sanspotter 4 года назад

Thanks for the kind words! 🙏🏻 Yeah, I have a very low key personality, so this way of doing it fits my style perfectly. I don’t think I’ll ever have the courage to stick a camera in my face (and talk) while walking though a busy airport... 🙅🏼‍♂️😅

@shanegermany5803 4 года назад

mint certainly looks a great product, cant wait to see Jetblue fly across the pond in 2021 and show us Brits how really good Jetblue are.

@21darkster 4 года назад

JMclawman511 the only reason why I don’t use JetBlue is because I usually fly on a partner of United to Denver and then to Florida on United. JetBlue is really expensive and does not fly directly to Florida from Denver

@jerrychen6142 4 года назад

JetBlue is my go-to for domestic flights. International flights I choose Delta

@triple7marc 4 года назад

JMclawman511 Wait how is jetBlue a budget airline? I’ve always considered them to more budget than jetBlue.

I don’t see the problem with Terminal 1, it just looks like all of Newark’s Terminals 😂

@mikeoxlong6351 4 года назад

I'd say it's even better because it's not in Newark!

Noah Moelter try Newark terminal 3. It’s really nice. Terminal 2 is the worst. The new terminal 1 plans look good though, but the current one is trash.

@edvaira6891 3 года назад

No, as a local who’s had to fly too many times out of terminal 1 (Southwest, mostly), it is primitive and tiny, a relic of the 1960’s…thankfully…it’s finally due to be modernized in the next five years

@Alhy-ls3dv 4 года назад

He does plenty of economy class reviews, in fact he's lacking in business class content

@pattyann4163 4 года назад

I don't think I can afford business, nor do I need a zillion places to plug things in on a 6 hour flight. I don't want to have to pick my flights based on menus, and would really rather eat properly before the flight, or bring something I know I'll like on with me. My preference is to find a good deal on a good seat, and buy TWO so I know I can relax.

@QuickBurn70 4 года назад

Alaska already had most of that concourse in Terminal 1 when they bought Virgin America, which was in Terminal 2. Once they consolidated operations, it all went to Terminal 2, and to make room for the ever-expanding Alaska network, the airport booted 3 or 4 smaller airlines back over to T1. But, help is on the way (along with a ton of construction). T1 replacement has been approved.

@TheDivaIsIntheDetails 4 года назад

We don't have Jet Blue Mint in St Louis but this looks like it's worth taking a small plan to Chicago or driving to Chicago to fly to San Diego or San Francisco for family vacation in 2021

@abitofeverything7892 4 года назад

I agree with you Scott. That's the most amazing Business Class service in a domestic flight in the USA. Of all your videos on domestic flights I've seen, JetBlue is really exceptional. Happy New Year Scott

@sanspotter 4 года назад

Happy new year to you as well Janirus! Yup - Jetblue Mint is tops!

@neillthornton1149 4 года назад

Hey Scott, great video as always. As a SAN based Alaska 75k, I was thrilled when they moved AS to Terminal 2. I never thought I would see the T1 Wheel of Death again, and chuckled when you went "for a walk". Such a miserable experience. It's unfortunate that JetBlue was shoved over there with Spirit and Southwest. Always looking forward to the next video, and if I see you in the terminal I'll give you a wave.

@sanspotter 4 года назад

Thanks man! If I’m not too busy juggling camera gear I’ll wave back! 👋🏻😆

I’ve been consistently been able to find lower fares for business class on another major carrier from NY to LA. Every time I price, Jet Blue never has a lower fare so have not tried Mint.

@toniannd4501 3 года назад

@Bobrogers99 4 года назад

It was a pretty brief glance at the dinner, and although I couldn't quite identify either chicken or salmon, I'm sure it was there and it was good. In general, US domestic flights don't exert themselves to make business class or first class as special as you'll find elsewhere, so it isn't hard for JetBlue to be the leader of the pack.

@cl2600 3 года назад

My week is made, a new SANspotter video from Scott! I have never tried Mint since I have not had the opportunity to fly Jet Blue since 2008, and heck I have only been in Business Class/First Class once and that was on Alaska back in 2013 but will hopefully have a Mint experience soon.

@bage881 4 года назад

@craigwillis3372 4 года назад

From an Australian view this is a proper Business Class offering rather than 2 x 2 with an empty middle seat we see so often !! Glad your nuts were warm (sorry I promised to leave that joke in the terminal) Excellent flight by the look of things and a most comfortable seat. No more cookies also by the sound of things! Great review as always mate and a belated Happy New Year !!

@sanspotter 4 года назад

Happy new year Craig! And THANK YOU for injecting some “nut” humor into the comment section - you have no idea how difficult it was for me to refrain from silly nut jokes in the voiceover. 😬😅 Hope you’re safe (and out of the smoke) down there in Australia. Everything I’ve seen on the news about the fires is absolutely devastating - hoping things calm down soon! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

@davidkahn2810 4 года назад

I travel from San Diego to Fort Lauderdale frequently but JetBlue has not added Mint to that flight. I did contact JetBlue and they said that Mint takes up too many seats and they can not add in Mint as there is only one flight a day to Fort Lauderdale. However, if and when they add a second flight then they would probably add Mint.

@lvthud 4 года назад

Have to agree with you, Mint was and still is a breath of fresh air (and comfort) for those of us that live on the left hand coast but don't live in LA or San Fran. Having a nice layflat bed was a dream on the LAS-JFK route, much like SAN we got the older cabins even though the flights were just as long and priced just the same as LAX/SFO, and then came B6....And in a instant DL/AA/UA lost their JFK bound premium passengers, shocking huh. I actually had that conversation with my DL rep, he seemed shocked that I would switch my Bi Weekly flights to B6. Now all is not perfect, the food can sometime try to hard and IMHO, the FLL ground staff suck, but, I still silently thank the person who decided to give the non LAX/SFO crowd a decent seat...Except for those footwells, 6'3 and size 13 feet, so yeah, not so good there.

@shameena7585 3 года назад

I am hoping to fly Mint on my next trip!

@corystewart9128 4 года назад

Nicest seat's I've ever experienced, makes Delta's first class seem like a complete waste of money. The only issue I had was that I did not realize the extent to which pressure would build up in your head when sleeping on a plane for that long. I flew from San Diego to New York and passed out for the whole flight on a red eye and woke up with an enormous headache.

@Watfordfc2030 4 года назад

I have friends in St. Louis and have been many times and always via Chicago or Minneapolis St. Paul . I’m actually thinking of maybe next time into New York on a cheap ticket and then maybe jetblue mint if they fly to St. Louis ? Love your channel truly is right up there 👆

I'm also from San Diego, terminal one is a complete mess compared to terminal two. It's almost two complete different worlds!

@Californiatimetraveler 2 года назад

I'm glad you stipulated the best "domestic" business class, because this is no where near the best when compared to numerous international carriers. It's also important to point out that the world's best carriers typically have three class service where First Class is out of this world. Try Emirates for example and this looks nothing more than cute.

@avesraggiana 4 года назад

I wish American Airlines would bring back their full-on Flagship First Class service to their previous city pairs like SAN-JFK. They used to run one a day using a B767-200. Nowadays, the only Flagship First Class Service offered by American Airlines on domestic runs is on specially configured A321-200 "T Models." Those planes have ten individual First Class pods with wide seats that convert to lie-flat beds. They beat JetBlue's Mint by a long, long stretch. Unfortunately this kind of plane only flies between LAX - JFK and SFO - JFK. The current management team at the "New American" has never appreciated the value of offering anything premium, in any class of service. They are all ex-USAIR managers after all, and we all remember how deplorable the old USAIR were.

@herenow6953 4 года назад

Happy New Year 🥳! Another great video and JetBlue Mint looks, well, mint! Way better than many business class offerings from 5* airlines (yes, BA I’m looking right atcha!). I think the Nourish Mint marketer is straight from Virgin - that’s very very virginesque. But nice touch and smart marketing. Look forward to your next review! I’m heading to CA in February on business with BA (economy) LHR - SFO - out on 380 and back on the Queen of the Skies - can’t wait - may be my last chance to fly on a 747 ✈️

@sanspotter 4 года назад

Happy New year to you as well! Too bad jetblue doesn’t fly to LHR (yet)...that would be a fun ride all the way to SFO for sure. But...I think I agree with you: take any opportunity you can get on the 747 while it lasts! Jetblue isn’t THAT good. 😆

@herenow6953 4 года назад

SANspotter I think their business class from your review and what it looks like knocks spots off BA old biz class (which, let’s face it is the vast majority of their fleet! I think only the A350 of which they have very few are set out with new J class). But looking for as to getting to the US again - it’s been a while and I think I’m in for some surprise! I used to go to SFO at least twice a year for about 6 years (in the dot.com days) - last time was 2000 - feels more recent but that’s what getting older does!! Condenses time! Anyway thank you so much for replying to my message and safe flying ✈️

One of my criteria for picking an airline to fly in the front cabin for trips within the U.S. is their cookie service. United and American serve warm chocolate chip cookies. JetBlue doesn't seem to do well in this area.
