The Frederick News-Post Online - Frederick County Maryland Daily Newspaper: "As I spent a steaming weekend in Florida, trying to cool down in front of the television, JetBlue commercials continuously assaulted me.
The 'All-You-Can-Jet' pass from JetBlue Airways trumpeted a proposal to allow jetter access to every available seat on every flight they can book in one month.
The gimmick's season opened Aug. 12 and was to end Friday. Customers could buy an unlimited travel pass for only $599. According to USA Today, the company ended the sale 36 hours earlier than expected, saying it had 'sold out' by Aug. 19.
My first reaction to the advertisement was that it seemed like a logical idea: I can go anywhere JetBlue flies, as many times as I want, in one month. Simple enough.
But wait, can I afford to take a month of vacation time at work? Do I even have enough places to visit to make the deal worth my $600?
The airline boasted 56 destinations and more than 150 jets available 'at a moment's notice,' said Robin Hayes, executive vice president and chief commercial officer for JetBlue, in a press release."
