Podcasts about JetBlue

The Helium Boys, Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino, return to the lab to break down the latest USC contest after the Trojans improved to 4-0 on the season with a Big Ten-opening road win but one that wasn't pretty at all. They also preview the big-time upcoming matchup between USC and Oregon that could be a battle for West Coast supremacy.The podcasting duo opens with the Two-Minute Drill where Shotgun discusses his excitement about the upcoming matchup between the Trojans and Ducks while Chris talks about his airline de-commitment from Southwest and the opportunity he gave JetBlue to swipe his commitment away.The boys of Helium jump into listener comments and corrections before breaking down the Trojans' sloppy and disappointing performance in a 42-35 victory at Rutgers. They talk about King Miller and Kayden Dixon-Wyatt continuing to step up and the Trojan offense being able to close out the game with a dominant four-minute drive because of the fear of what would have occurred had the defense been asked to make a final stop with the game on the line. The duo also discuss some puzzling defensive calls as well as some giant vacancies in USC's zone coverage. They also talk about the team's health and Jayden Maiava's regression since landing hard on his shoulder on his penultimate play of the Fresno State game.Shotgun and Chris then, after a break, take a look forward at USC welcoming Oregon into the Coliseum for a primetime matchup that could determine who rules the West Coast. They look at the key matchups that will take place in the trenches as well as the danger tight end Jamari Johnson could present over the middle of the field and discuss why whoever is the most physical will likely win.To close out the show, Shotgun takes on Trevino's Take It or Leave It segment before an Overtime period of ranking famous ducks and we don't mean Oregon football players.

JetBlue's travel subsidiary Paisly has added Viking, Scenic Luxury Cruises & Tours and Emerald Cruises to JetBlue Vacations, bringing river itineraries to the platform for the first time and letting travelers earn JetBlue TrueBlue points while remaining eligible for cruise-line rewards, with Paisly set to power MileagePlus Travel cruises in 2027. In Western New York, longtime firefighters Dawn and John Gauthier are organizing the Valor Voyage Firefighter Cruise, a five-night sailing aboard Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas departing March 4, 2028, with calls at Belize City and Puerto Costa Maya and two sea days of leadership, tactics and mental health sessions; a portion of proceeds will benefit the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation. And UnCruise Adventures will more than double capacity on its Aleutian Islands itinerary in 2028, replacing the 36-guest Safari Explorer with the refitted 74-guest Wilderness Explorer across eight 10-night sailings between Seward and Dutch Harbor.

Elizabeth von Tersch from U.S. News & World Report joins us to break down the latest rankings of the best airline and hotel loyalty programs—and there are definitely some surprises! We talk about why American took the top airline spot, what caused Atmos and United to fall, why JetBlue is gaining ground, and where Delta struggles. On the hotel side, we dig into Wyndham taking #1, why Hyatt remains strong despite its smaller footprint, and how programs like Choice, Hilton, Sonesta, and IHG compare. Plus, we talk about devaluations, transfer partners, redemption value, and why your points are almost always worth more today than they will be tomorrow.Mentioned in this episode:Travel.usnews.com@USNewsTravelTravel Essentials LinksElizabeth TikTokElizabeth YoutubeFind Us On Online:Wonderland Besties SubscriptionMary Ellen | JoFacebook GroupAffiliate Links:Relief Band - Use code WONDERLAND for 25% off!Rakuten- Mary Ellen (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Rakuten- Joanna (Get 5000 AMEX or Bilt POINTS)Seats.AeroBEST PRICE on CardPointers subscription!Halara (use code "Wonderland" for 10% off)Our Favorite Credit CardsComfrt.com 15% OFF✈️

JetBlue is finally adding domestic first class—but is a nicer seat really what the airline needs most? Ed and Richard are joined by Points Path founder Julian Kheel for a packed episode that starts with JetBlue's plans for three rows of domestic first class. The guys like plenty about the JetBlue onboard experience, but there's an elephant in the room: operational reliability. July data discussed on the show puts JetBlue at just 62% for on-time arrivals and a 91.7% completion factor. Richard and Julian argue that fixing the network and operation might be a higher priority than installing premium seats. There's another tradeoff. JetBlue can install first class without dramatically reducing the total number of seats because its cabins historically had generous legroom—but the new configuration significantly reduces Even More Space seating. That leads to a discussion about whether JetBlue is simultaneously premiumizing the front while "depremiuming" economy. Richard also has something else on his mind: domestic airfare. He's seeing some eye-watering prices for family trips, including roughly $2,400–$2,500 for four people on relatively short domestic trips. Julian says Points Path data used in a recent study is showing significant year-over-year increases in holiday pricing for both cash fares and miles, making locking something in early increasingly important. Then Julian weighs in on Google's new AI-powered points-and-miles search after Ed and Richard tested it last week. His verdict falls somewhere between theirs: there's potential, but the current product still struggles to return complete results. More fundamentally, Julian questions whether travelers actually want to book trips by chatting with an AI bot. The real prize, he argues, isn't simply showing every available fare—it's personalization that understands your points, credits and other assets and tells you which option is best for you. Air Canada has new routes coming, including a daytime Toronto–London flight, but its upcoming A321XLR configuration gets Ed's attention: just 14 lie-flat seats, no premium economy and an otherwise all-economy cabin at a time when airlines seem to be racing to add premium capacity. United, meanwhile, is adding a new app feature designed to help during delays. Travelers will be able to stand by for as many as three alternate flights and receive notifications if seats become available. Julian sees it as a useful, customer-friendly addition. Richard is…less convinced. Finally, Ed and Julian tackle a question close to home: Does the Washington, D.C. region really need a fourth commercial airport? Manassas Regional Airport has received permission to offer commercial service, potentially opening the door to carriers such as Avelo. Ed digs into the economics of Dulles, National and the broader DC market—and why making a fourth airport work may be harder than it sounds.

On today's Skift Daily Briefing, Tasmin Lockwood, Skift's Climate and Experiences Reporter, breaks down why Airbnb's latest hire is a clear signal that its hotel ambitions just got serious, how AirDNA is betting simplicity can unlock dynamic pricing for the hosts that every other tool hasn't reached, and why JetBlue thinks premium cabins can do what cost-cutting alone hasn't.

Kirsten, a pediatric emergency medicine doctor and mom of three, joins us to break down how her family spent six nights in Puerto Rico for just $1,500 out of pocket on a trip that would have cost around $12,000 in cash. We get into exactly how she pulled it off using JetBlue points, Hyatt points, credit card travel credits, rental car status, and a Hyatt Guest of Honor award. Kirsten walks us through their stay at the Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve, why Guest of Honor benefits saved them hundreds of dollars on breakfast and parking, and how Puerto Rico turned out to be an incredibly easy family destination for a February school break. We also talk about their adventures in El Yunque, natural waterslides and cliff jumping in the rainforest, a canceled snorkeling excursion that led to a great backup day at Luquillo Beach, and exploring historic Old San Juan. Plus, we cover the Capital One offer that earned Kirsten an incredible 30X on a Viator excursion, her favorite points and travel tools, and why Puerto Rico deserves a spot on your list if you want beaches, adventure, history, and tropical weather without needing a passport.Mentioned in this Episode:Relief Band - Use code WONDERLAND for 25% off!Find Us On Online:Sign Up for the Y!

Spirit shut down on May 2 with roughly $8.1 billion in debt and about 17,000 people out of work, and the estate has been selling the pieces since. A court approved 22 LaGuardia slots to JetBlue for $58.5 million in July. Last week's lot was the data. The August 14 notice out of the Southern District of New York itemizes 100 million emails, 500 million Microsoft Teams chats, around 30 million lines of code, pricing from 7.2 billion competitor flights, 7.5 billion passenger transaction records going back to 2008, and more than 175,000 employee records dating to 1986. Google says a third party will scrub personally identifiable data before the handover. Rick thinks $10 million is low, and that the next liquidation will have somebody in the room asking what the internal record is worth.A HarrisX and Allison Worldwide study of 705 teens aged 13 to 16 and 750 parents puts Mom ahead of any platform, creator, or celebrity on which brands Gen Alpha teens end up liking. Dads introduce new brands at 60% against 39% for moms, but moms carry which brands the kid actually likes, 73 to 58. Nike sits first with dads and Walmart first with moms. Any plan that treats parents as a single line item is funding discovery and approval at the same weight when the survey says those are two jobs held by two people.QXO reported $3.25 billion in quarterly sales against $1.91 billion a year ago, with a $55 million net loss and $130 million in adjusted net income. Kodiak Building Partners accounted for about $595 million of the top line. Brad Jacobs told investors he wants $50 billion within a decade. He did not break out organic growth.PayPal traded above $300 a share in 2021 at a market value north of $280 billion. The Wall Street Journal reports that Stripe and private equity firm Advent International approached in July at $60.50 a share, valuing the company near $53 billion.

When you go out to dinner with a big group, are you obligated to split the bill evenly—or should you only pay for what you actually ordered? And at what point does refusing to split the check make you look cheap?That's the debate kicking off this episode of The Treehouse Show.Trey recently went to a birthday dinner with a large group and asked the server to put him on a separate tab. Why? The rest of the table was ordering bottles of wine, cocktails, and beer, while Trey wasn't drinking. He still contributed toward the birthday person's dinner and drinks, paid for everything he ordered himself, and tipped his server 40%.Seems fair, right? Apparently not to everyone at the table.So where's the line? If one person orders a $20 meal while everyone else is ordering expensive drinks, appetizers, and entrées, should the entire bill still be divided evenly? Is asking for a separate check perfectly reasonable—or does it make you the cheap friend?After settling absolutely nothing in that debate, we move on to Celebrity Birthdays, which somehow leads to a conversation about rehab, reports about Brad Pitt drinking again, and whether some TV shows noticeably changed their writing and messaging after COVID.Then things get appropriately weird. We cover the story of a homeless man who allegedly managed to sneak onto a JetBlue flight, and we have an update on a story that refuses to go away: the man who says he has the world's smallest penis.Dinner etiquette, drinking, celebrities, airline security, questionable decisions, and penis news.

In Episode 217 of the Know Your Sh*t podcast, Josh Cadillac sits down with negotiation trainer, entrepreneur, and Black Swan Group expert Jorge Gayle to explore how tactical empathy, trust, and curiosity can completely transform the way people negotiate.Jorge explains why successful negotiation begins before discussing money, contracts, or terms. By addressing negative assumptions, understanding the other person's perspective, and making people feel heard, negotiators can lower defenses and create stronger long-term relationships. Josh and Jorge also discuss how these skills apply directly to real estate, where emotional decisions, financial pressure, and a lack of trust can easily prevent a deal from moving forward.Jorge shares how he discovered the Black Swan negotiation method while serving as JetBlue's head of procurement. After being challenged to help the airline purchase 100 airplanes while saving $100 million, he began applying the lessons from Never Split the Difference and eventually brought Chris Voss to train teams across the company. Those skills helped JetBlue build stronger vendor relationships while reaching its savings goal ahead of schedule.The conversation also goes beyond business negotiations and examines the difficult negotiation people have with themselves. Jorge opens up about leaving a six-figure career, rebuilding after losing nearly all his income, facing possible bankruptcy, and using faith, gratitude, and discipline to begin again. He also shares how running ultramarathons has taught him to accept discomfort, do the hard things first, and keep moving even when the finish line feels far away.This episode is a practical and motivational conversation about becoming a better listener, building trust, handling emotional situations, overcoming setbacks, and developing the discipline to empty the tank in business and life.

Episode 183 of the Award Travel 101 podcast, hosted by Angie Sparks and Cameron Laufer, covers the latest points and miles news, personal card updates, and practical award travel strategies. The hosts discuss current promotions, including back-to-school airline shopping portal bonuses, Citi's 20% transfer bonus to Flying Blue, and Chase Freedom Flex's upcoming removal of foreign transaction fees. They also highlight a concerning change from Singapore Airlines, which appears to require members to have KrisFlyer miles in their accounts before they can search award availability, making trip planning more difficult. Angie and Cameron also share their recent credit card activity, including meeting spending requirements, closing cards with high annual fees, and adjusting travel plans after flight cancellations.The main topic focuses on how to stretch 100,000 American Express Membership Rewards points into a vacation for two, using a budget of 100,000 points plus up to $1,000 out of pocket.

Americans are wealthier than ever on paper, but consumer frustration, high prices, and constant online negativity are still shaping how people feel about the economy.Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong discuss why economic sentiment remains so weak despite rising wealth, why phones and social media may be making Americans feel worse, and how populist policies like price controls, rent control, and tariffs could create more problems than they solve. They also break down why wage gains for lower-income workers are an encouraging sign, what early retirement can really cost when health insurance and missed savings years are included, why Tesla's volatility is not new, and how JetBlue's bond troubles reflect pressure across the airline industry.

Crisis Management: What Customers Remember Most A company may not have caused the crisis—but it still owns the customer experience surrounding it. In this episode of The Customer Service Revolution Podcast, Denise Thompson and John DiJulius examine what leaders should do when customers may be at risk, facts are still developing, and the organization's reputation is suddenly on the line. Using recent food-safety concerns and well-known brand crises as examples, they explain why silence, defensiveness, and rigid policies can magnify the original problem—and how a fast, transparent response can help preserve customer trust. The Four Principles of Customer Experience Crisis Management John outlines four actions organizations should take when a crisis occurs: Address the situation immediately. Make the highest-ranking leader the visible face of the response. Take full responsibility for protecting the customer experience. Overcorrect to demonstrate that the organization genuinely cares. Customers do not separate a company from its suppliers, franchisees, distributors, or employees. They remember the brand name connected to the experience—and how that brand responded. What Successful Crisis Responses Have in Common Denise and John revisit several high-profile corporate crises, including Johnson & Johnson's response to the Tylenol poisonings, Domino's reaction to an employee-created viral video, Chipotle's food-safety challenges, and JetBlue's response to severe travel disruptions. The strongest recoveries shared several characteristics: Customer safety came before short-term profits. Leaders communicated quickly and frequently. The organization took visible, decisive action. The crisis led to meaningful operational improvements. Customers were shown what would prevent the problem from happening again. Why Service Recovery Cannot Depend on the Employee You Reach The conversation expands from large-scale crisis management to everyday service recovery. John explains the service recovery paradox: when a company handles a problem exceptionally well, the customer can become more loyal than if the problem had never occurred. But that outcome requires a consistent recovery process. TDG's LEAST model helps employees respond effectively: Listen Allow the customer to explain the situation without interruption, defensiveness, or debate. Empathize Acknowledge what the customer experienced and demonstrate genuine concern. Apologize Take responsibility for the inconvenience or impact, even when the employee or company did not directly create the original problem. Solve Resolve the issue or take ownership of finding someone who can—without forcing the customer to repeat the story to multiple people. Thank Thank the customer for bringing the problem to the organization's attention and creating an opportunity to make it right. Stop Hiding Behind Policy Policies can protect consistency, but they can also prevent employees from using sound judgment. John shares the story of a longtime salon client who was charged for a missed appointment after her husband unexpectedly died. When she questioned the charge, the manager responded, "Sorry, that's our policy." The problem was not an uncaring employee. It was a system that had trained the employee to enforce a rule without giving her the confidence or authority to recognize an obvious exception. Leaders must decide whether onboarding primarily teaches employees what they cannot do—or prepares them to serve customers and one another with judgment, empathy, and ownership. Key Takeaways A company may not have caused a crisis, but it owns the customer experience of that crisis. Customers judge brands by what they do next. Silence allows speculation to control the story. The highest-ranking leader should be visible during a significant crisis. Taking responsibility is different from accepting legal blame. Overcorrecting can demonstrate that customer safety matters more than short-term costs. Employees need a clear service recovery process and enough autonomy to use it. Every transfer forces the customer to relive the problem and often increases frustration. Policies should provide guidance without eliminating judgment and empathy. A crisis can strengthen trust when it produces transparent action and lasting improvement. Memorable Quotes "Customers don't experience your supply chain. They experience your brand." "A company may not have created the problem, but it still owns the customer experience of the problem." "It's never what happens that is the worst thing. It's the cover-up." "Customers rarely judge a brand by whether something went wrong. They judge it by what the brand did next." "Listen like you're wrong." "Whoever gets the initial complaint owns it." "Every time customers have to retell their story, they get angrier." "Remove the word 'policy' from your company's vocabulary."

Severe weather created another difficult weekend for travelers, and Richard opens the episode with the story of getting his sister home after JetBlue canceled her flight and could not offer another option for several days. The solution involved a train to Baltimore, a Southwest flight and a reminder of why keeping points available for emergencies can be so valuable. Ed then reviews his family's stay at the MGM Skylofts in Las Vegas, including the spacious two-bedroom accommodations, the aging room features and his lingering question about what guests are actually supposed to ask a hotel butler to do. He and Richard compare Skylofts with Aria Sky Suites and consider whether the additional luxury benefits justify the much higher price. The conversation shifts to the complicated Marriott–MGM relationship. Ed explains why MGM Gold status and direct booking can sometimes beat booking through Marriott, especially when resort fees and restaurant spending are considered. Richard also discovers an especially poor Marriott points redemption: nearly 17,000 points to avoid paying a $30 base room rate while still owing the resort fee. Later, the guys debate the best travel movies ever made, discuss whether Boeing should once again be allowed to certify its own aircraft, answer a listener question about choosing a Tokyo hotel for a short visit and examine why domestic award travel has become so painful for families.

A get-after-it, stop-settling, what-are-you-going-to-do-with-it kind of episode.

Trump v. Slaughter, the ballot-counting ruling, Chatrie v. United States, and Paris's heat wave blame game headline today's A.M. Update. The Supreme Court rules 5-4 that Trump can fire FTC commissioners at will, overturning 90 years of precedent protecting independent agencies, and Aaron says law professor Barb McQuade's outraged summary is basically his favorite part of the ruling. In the same session, the Court rules 5-4 that states can count mail-in ballots after election day if procedures are in place, Trump immediately calls it a tremendous loss and redoubles his push for the SAVE America Act, and Aaron says Senate Republicans need to feel more pressure than they currently do. The geofence warrant case Chatrie v. United States results in a 6-3 ruling that location data from Google counts as a Fourth Amendment search, Colorado's Supreme Court unanimously blocks a Democrat redistricting map that would have flipped three House seats, and inmates briefly seize control of a North Carolina jail before law enforcement retakes it. A JetBlue flight reports a drone strike at 3,000 feet over JFK, Aaron does the math on whether any consumer drone can actually reach that altitude, and Paris Deputy Mayor Audrey Pulvar blames American air conditioners for Europe's deadly heat wave — Aaron calls all of Europe losers for letting their politicians get away with it and tells them to demand better. Aaron closes with the Iraq anti-corruption arrests, the US-Israel-Lebanon trilateral framework, and a theory on whether Iranian proxies are quietly being dismantled, before making a full endorsement of an unnamed man in black who shot BB guns at nude cyclists in Los Angeles.    

President Trump has not signed the housing legislation that passed both chambers. Instead, the President has underscored his priority: the SAVE America Act. A commercial JetBlue flight hit a drone at JFK, and SpaceX may one day donate stock shares to “Trump accounts.” Former director of the CFPB Rohit Chopra is about to begin a new role as Business and Consumer Services Agency Secretary for California. He's concerned about pricing pressures on American consumers, calling the current environment a “grocery price emergency.” Plus, head of Coinbase institutional strategy John D'Agostino discusses crypto's tough year so far, and considers the inherent value of digital assets.    John D'Agostino        16:27 Rohit Chopra              31:47   In this episode: Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuick Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkin Katie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, host John Solomon discusses the latest Supreme Court rulings that have significant implications for American elections and presidential powers. With the nation just days away from its 250th birthday, Solomon reflects on a surprising 5-4 decision allowing election votes to be counted after Election Day, a ruling that caught both conservatives and liberals off guard. He also highlights a major victory for President Trump, who now has enhanced authority to regulate independent board members, following a 6-3 ruling in his favor.Listeners will hear about the ongoing E. Jean Carroll defamation case, where the Supreme Court declined to intervene, as well as the alarming incident involving a JetBlue flight that was struck by a drone while landing at JFK Airport. Solomon emphasizes the growing dangers posed by drones in aviation and the need for increased awareness and regulation.Joining the discussion is Senator Rick Scott, who advocates for daily Senate votes on the Save America Act and shares his thoughts on recent tensions between the U.S. and Iran. The episode also features Keith Krach, CEO of Freedom 250, discussing the upcoming anniversary celebrations, and Carrie Severino, a Supreme Court expert, who provides insights into the significant rulings of the day.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Merger Blocked by Antitrust Action: JetBlue offered $3.8 billion to acquire Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, unions, and both companies supported the merger. The DOJ and Department of Transportation, urged by Elizabeth Warren and supported by Buttigieg and Biden, sued to stop it. A federal judge blocked the merger in January 2024. Consequences Claimed: Spirit declared bankruptcy and shut down, leading to: ~17,000 direct job losses Estimated 40,000+ indirect jobs affected Loss of service to dozens of smaller cities Reduced airline competition and higher fares on former Spirit routes (examples cited include increases of 15–66%). Critique of Antitrust Reasoning: Speakers argue antitrust law should protect consumers, not competitors. They claim the DOJ incorrectly defined the market as “ultra‑low‑cost airlines” instead of the broader airline market, making Spirit and JetBlue appear dominant when they were actually small players. They assert the decision strengthened the Big Four airlines (American, Delta, United, Southwest), which already control ~75–80% of the market. Rebuttal to Alternative Explanations: Democrats are criticized for blaming Spirit’s failure on fuel price increases or Trump-era policies. The speakers argue fuel price volatility affects all airlines and that Spirit would have been better positioned to withstand it with the merger funds. Internal Democratic Dissent: A Biden White House policy official publicly questioned whether blocking the merger was the right decision, though later softened the statement—used as evidence of internal doubts. Government Bailout Rejected: A proposed $500M government bailout (for 90% ownership) was discussed but rejected. The speakers strongly oppose government ownership of airlines, labeling it socialism and economically incompetent. Broader Ideological Argument: The collapse is framed as an example of government overreach, poor understanding of business, and ideological decision-making harming workers and consumers. The episode is used to argue that free‑market competition—not government control—is essential to lower prices and innovation. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
