JetBlue Introduces Family Seating Guarantee to Enhance Customer Experience

New York, NY - JetBlue, a leading airline known for its commitment to customer satisfaction, has announced a new family seating guarantee. This policy ensures that children aged 13 years and younger will be seated next to an adult accompanying them on the same reservation. This move is a testament to JetBlue's dedication to providing families with a seamless and stress-free travel experience.

JetBlue has been the preferred choice for families for over two decades, and this latest initiative further solidifies its reputation. Joanna Geraghty, JetBlue's president and chief operating officer, commented on the new policy, stating, “We recognize the challenges that come with traveling with young children. Our aim is to alleviate any concerns parents might have and ensure a smooth journey every time they choose JetBlue.”

The family seating guarantee introduces a proactive approach to identifying reservations with children and accompanying adults without prior seat assignments. The system then ensures the child is seated next to at least one adult from the same reservation without additional charges. This policy also extends to customers who opt for JetBlue’s Blue Basic fare, the airline's version of basic economy. However, for bookings made within 24 hours of the flight, seat assignments might require manual intervention by a JetBlue airport crewmember. To ensure a hassle-free experience, customers are encouraged to select their seats during the booking process.

JetBlue's commitment to customer service is not new. The airline has been at the forefront of customer-centric initiatives, being the first and only U.S. airline to introduce a voluntary Customer Bill of Rights in 2007. This transparent document set forth JetBlue's commitments and provided compensation guidelines for unforeseen issues. This Bill of Rights was recently integrated into a comprehensive customer assurance resource, the JetBlue Customer Service Plan.
