JetBlue Announces, "Aprils' Flights Are On Us!"

NEW YORK, April 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- If you're named April and flying JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today, you'll receive a JetBlue credit equal to the amount of the fare you paid for today's flight, because JetBlue understands that this should be your day, not the fools. No fooling!

"April 1st isn't always fun and games for everyone," said April Dinwoodie, JetBlue's Director of Media Relations. "For many of us, it represents an annual tradition of mockery. We're thrilled to take a moment and do something for those customers that might not look forward to starting their month with a day of teasing."

Credit for our April travelers' April 1, 2013 JetBlue flight will be automatically deposited into a JetBlue Travel Bank for any April who booked directly with JetBlue on jetblue.com or by calling 1-800-JETBLUE (thanks!).  For Aprils who purchased their flight today through a different service, please email [email protected] by April 8, 2013 with your name, JetBlue confirmation number, and seat assignment to request your JetBlue Travel Bank credit.  All Travel Bank credits are good towards any JetBlue flight within one year.

JetBlue crewmembers also took to the airports this morning to surprise a few Aprils in person. "I'm super excited!" said April B. on her way to Cancun, "This is an early birthday present. Thank you so very much for an awesome surprise!"

April C. on her way to Portland was equally surprised, "I have always loved JetBlue and now I love you guys even more!"

JetBlue knows their customers are no fools. This year, April gets the last laugh.
