In 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous small cash-strapped and debt-heavy airlines shuttered operations.

Business Class at Home, Making The JetBlue Mint Class Cocktail

In 2020, like many, I spent most of the year at home. This was a major departure from the years prior. In total, I traveled just 21,000 miles by plane.

JetBlue is expected to commence nonstop service between the U.S. and Europe in 2021. While the New York-based airline confirmed plans in 2019, there are still a number of unanswered questions surrounding the upcoming service.

Though JetBlue’s Mint business class product is already very competitive, especially for the transcontinental market, there is widespread speculation that JetBlue will introduce a new variation of its Mint business class product alongside the airline’s new nonstop flights to Europe. As of February 2020, little is known about what this new Mint seat might...
