Not having travelled on JetBlue yourself, I wonder why you deprive your clients of the experience? If it is true (and I really don't know) that we are looking to hook up with travel agents (as 80% is booked through
www.jetblue.com) then why don't you try to make some money through us?
I almost offered you a free ride through a buddy pass, but then I thought no, those are for friends. I'd rather have you buy a ticket.
The other day I flew from Oakland to Longbeach and a satisfied, deplaning customer told me 'I'll never fly Southwest again'.
We might not have the international connections like Singapore and Cathay, but please standby for a major announcement very soon. It might just rock your travel agency world...
Why yes, a travel agent is part of what I do, pilot boy.
I look forward to your announcement, although it probably won't rock my travel agency world. Your posts seem awfully hostile Gman. I know plenty of people who like flying on JetBlue, you don't have to convince me of that. FYI though, travel agents don't make money booking air on any airline! We make our money booking tours, cruises, international travel, business and incentive travel, etc. That being said, Jetblue only recently announced plans to allow booking on their airline through GDS. If that is your announcement, then I already know that.
I will continue to support union based airlines though because I am "UnionSkyTravelAgentGirl!"
