JetBlue basic economy fare to include free carry-on bag

JetBlue is easing restrictions on its Blue Basic fare by including a free carry-on bag for customers;
It takes effect from September 6, 2024, regardless of purchase date.
Previously, customers who wished to bring a carry-on bag would need to purchase one of JetBlue’s other fare options.
“Carry-on bags are an important part of travel to customers, and we want JetBlue to be the easy winner,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue.
“We’re always looking for ways to evolve our offering in response to customer preferences.”
All bags remain subject to size and weight restrictions and other fees apply for oversized or overweight bags.
“As flying becomes cheaper and more accessible, a one-size-fits-all offering no longer works,” St. George added.
