Travel Flexibility Extended
Keeping in mind flexibility has never been more important to its customers, JetBlue is extending its “Go Back and Forth with Confidence” initiative for new bookings made through February 28, 2021, for travel on any date. Intended to provide peace of mind and confidence for customers making travel plans, the initiative waives all change and cancel fees for all fares, including Blue Basic, which normally does not allow for any changes.
