Clarification of J.D.Power standing

In the current iteration (as of 7/12/12), under the 2010's section http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetblue#2010s the following notation links to an out of date source

On June 13, 2012, JetBlue ranked 'Highest in Customer Satisfaction Among Low Cost Carriers in North America' by J.D. Power and Associates, a customer satisfaction recognition received for the seventh year in a row.[45]

Reference [45]links to a JetBlue post from 2011 (http://blog.jetblue.com/index.php/2011/06/08/jetblue-awarded-seventh-consecutive-customer-satisfaction-j-d-power-and-associates-honor/) which doesn't accurately reflect the statement within the article. A currently acceptable source for the article statement would be this article from 6/13/12: http://blog.jetblue.com/index.php/2012/06/13/jetblue-airways-awarded-eighth-consecutive-customer-satisfaction-j-d-power-and-associates-honor/

It may also be worth noting, while the statement as printed within the article is accurate, the post from JetBlue reflects eight consecutive J.D. Power and Associate recognitions. JetBlue's first recognition in 2005 was inclusive of all major carriers in North America. MHJohnston77 (talk) 18:38, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Article Move?

Does anyone have any objection to moving the article to JetBlue as per WP:COMMONNAME? Thanks --JetBlast (talk) 20:52, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, it seems fine to me. —Compdude123 23:02, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Citation check requested on Partnership information

Under https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JetBlue#Partnerships the entry claims CEO Dave Barger says JetBlue is "currently considering becoming a member of a global airline alliance." and openly speculates (unverifiablly) that a partnership with Star Alliance is likely. This is inaccurate. The citations given are dead links to sites with questionable authority and appearing to be from 2009.

For an actual citable source regarding Dave Barger's and JetBlue's view on partnerships and alliances, you might want to look at more recent interviews like: http://www.travelweekly.com/In-the-Hot-Seat/JetBlue-Dave-Barger/ which features a Q&A with the CEO: Q: Is JetBlue at a disadvantage because it's not in an alliance?

A: We love open architecture. We are partnering with 25 airlines. We have a two-way codeshare with South African Airways. We will roll out a codeshare with Emirates. We can partner with unaligned airlines like Emirates. We can partner with SAA, which is part of the Star Alliance. Korean Air is part of SkyTeam. Alliances are complex. They add cost. And, in an alliance, if you're the short-haul guy, you're penalized.

(JetBlue has since ratified the codeshare with Emirates, and has added additional partnerhsips: http://www.jetblue.com/airline-partners/ )

Hub vs Focus City

Aren't BOS,SJU,FLL,MCO also hubs. They are the main bases (Other than their home @ JFK) of operations for the airline - It even funnels passenger through them. So again, shouldnt they be hubs rather than FC's? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.104.122.241 (talk) 02:34, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

The child article JetBlue Mint is only 4K of text, some of which could be trimmed out as it looks a little too promotional. This article is only 27K of prose, so could absorb the information about the Mint brand easily without losing focus. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:59, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree that it "looks a little too promotional". It looks a lot too promotional. Admiral James T Kirk (talk) 04:41, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It is possible for GAs and DYKs to be pulled after substandard reviews (indeed, for DYK this is semi-regular). Looking at the relevant conversation we find comments such as "I'm not entirely convinced it's even a notable subject" and "DYK are no longer interested in interesting hooks it would appear, they are just too obsessed with self-preservation".

  • Oppose The target article is quite large already and I prefer our articles to be brief rather than compendious. The coverage indicates that the Mint service is quite innovative in its market and so there's some sense in giving it this attention. Andrew D. (talk) 11:18, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose merge but hack to pieces the promotional tone. My concern at the time was purely about the poor choice of DYK hook. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 13:10, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • For It seems a bit ridiculous to have a separate article about an airline's first class cabin. Etihad's Residence doesn't have a separate article and that seems like a much more notable cabin than Mint. ~~ tonei 00:46, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
