JetBlue, long a hold-out among its low-cost airline peers, has given in.
Starting as soon as Tuesday, the airline will introduce a fare scale wherein the lowest-priced tickets won’t include a free checked bag, according to Bloomberg. That would make Southwest the only major American airline to allow all customers to check up to two bags for free.
JetBlue is also debuting redesigned “slimline” seats later this year, with less padding and a configuration that makes room for up to 15 more people on a 150-passenger plane.
