Jetblue offering perks for flying with babies! / myLot

Dublin, Ireland

May 8, 2016 2:40pm CST

I recently saw an ad thru my FB News feed about Jetblue awarding passengers when flying with a crying baby. Based on the ad, every time a baby cries, ALL passengers will get 25% their next flight. So basically, all it takes is for 4 babies to cry 4 times or let the same baby cry again and again 4 times in a flight to get a free ticket next time! It seems to be a wonderful idea but do you think it is sustainable? I mean, babies will cry for a lot of reasons and reaching that 4th mark is relatively easy to achieve, too.

HAHA I know what you mean. I used to take overnight flights solo and I do feel "annoyed" when a baby cries nonstop. Now that I am a Mom, I actually feel for those parents now LOL! It's so hard to be deprived of sleep AND care for a crying baby at the same time.

That`s a loss for them even before it gets started unless they make this offer then dont let parents with babies board the flights, infants and babies always scream during landings.

Yeah and there can be flights where there are LOTS of babies on-board! I can't imagine them being able to sustain this for long to be honest. Although it is a good idea to give their customers this to reduce the smirks raised against parents traveling with infants.
