The main drawback to the travel benefits is JetBlue's "Caring" value in action: demanding that you glove up, work upstream and impede deplaning passengers while cleaning the cabin after your flight. They say it's to make for quicker turns, but if they wanted quicker turns they'd have cleaners work the cabin. It's really about control, but I won't get too far out on this tangent.
Make sure you get all your booster shots prior to nonrev travel, at least until BlueJet comes to their senses. Currently there's no fee for travel, but they are hinting at starting to charge for the benefit of cleaning their planes for them.
Thanks for the info ATR. Good to know we get a travel companion for those of us that are too afraid to commit, or smart enough not to. These benefits are active in the beginning of training I'd assume, or once you watch "the video"?
As for the cleaning, pretty sure that topic has been beat to death in the Blue Glove thread so I won't even stir up that pot. I do understand the point you're trying to get across though.
