General info

Blue Basic, Blue, Blue Extra, Blue Plus, and Mint fares

Each customer is allowed one carry-on bag and one personal item (purse, small backpack, briefcase, laptop, etc.). Carry-on bags may be stowed in the overhead bin or underneath the seat in front of you, while personal items must be placed beneath the seat in front of you. Closets for hanging garment bags are not available on our planes.

Carry-on bags are the sole responsibility of the customer and JetBlue will assume no liability for property carried on board.
