Some people are just pack rats. And JetBlue Airways wouldn't have it any other way.
The New York-based carrier this morning introduced a new service called 'Go Pack,' which gives customers the ability to buy one-way flights in packs of six or 10 between select cities.
Call it's Sam's Club for the airline crowd.
"These packages are a convenient option for customers who travel often, whether for business or leisure," said Dennis Corrigan, JetBlue's vice president of sales and revenue management. "Not only do we provide frequent flights and award-winning service on these routes, but customers who purchase are also able to earn TrueBlue points. So, you can work towards your next award flight while enjoying a great deal."
Go Packs will be available in the following cities: Boston to/from Washington, DC; the New York-metropolitan area to/from destinations in Florida; or select short haul flights to/from New York's JFK Airport or Long Beach, Calif.
JetBlue is touting the package as a way to share tickets. Passengers can purchase tickets now through March 31 for travel between February 25 and June 17 (blackout dates April 11-28).
Each GoPack includes either six (6) or ten (10) GoPack codes, each good for the base fare of a one-way, nonstop flight for one person on the select specified routes. These are non-refundable tickets.
Routes and fares are:
* Boston (BOS) to/from Washington, DC (Reagan National Airport, Baltimore Washington International and Washington Dulles International) -- $939 for a 6-pack, $1369 for a 10-pack
* New York City (LaGuardia, JFK and Newark) to/from Florida (Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach, Orlando, Jacksonville, Fort Myers, Tampa and Sarasota) -- $1,239 for a 6-pack, $1,669 for a 10-pack
* New York (JFK) to/from Select Northeast Cities (Burlington, VT; Portland, ME; Buffalo, NY; Rochester, NY; and Syracuse, NY) - $839 for a 6-pack, $1,239 for a 10-pack
* Long Beach (LGB) to/from Select California Cities (San Francisco; Oakland; or Sacramento) -- $739 for a 6-pack, $1,069 for a 10-pack.
