JetBlue joins other several other air carriers in getting rid of a most unpopular fee.
“We know traveling with young children can add challenges, and we want to do everything we can to put parents and families at ease by providing a smooth trip each time they choose JetBlue,” Joanna Geraghty, president and chief operating officer, said in aJetBlue said it has a process that identifies reservations with children and adults traveling together who don’t have prior seating assignments.
For no additional fee, the airline said it will ensure a traveling child is assigned a seat next to at least one accompanying adult – when seats are available. Customers who choose JetBlue’s Blue Basic fare, the airline’s version of basic economy, are included in the family seating policy. For bookings made within 24 hours of planned travel, seats may need to be assigned manually by a JetBlue airport crewmember.
The airline urged customers are urged to select their seats at the time of booking to ensure the smoothest travel experience possible.
