Low-fare, High-thrills Carrier Brings Trick-or-Treating Tradition to 30,000 Feet On All Flights October 31
NEW YORK, (RUSHPRNEWS) Oct 31, 2007 (PrimeNewswire via COMTEX News Network) — This Halloween, trick-or-treaters traveling on JetBlue Airways (Nasdaq:JBLU) will be treated to scarily tasty AirHeads(r) Blue Mystery Blast candies whether they are in costume or not.
On Wednesday, October 31, JetBlue’s award-winning Inflight Crewmembers will bring the trick-or-treat to the seat on all afternoon and evening flights to the low-fare, high-thrills carrier’s 53 destinations, giving out the bold, flavorful treats to kids and adults alike.
“We are constantly looking for fun and creative ways to enhance the JetBlue Experience, and what better way to celebrate Halloween with our customers than a trick-or-treating party at 30,000 feet?” said Dave Barger, JetBlue’s CEO. “This year, the young and young at heart can enjoy an AirHeads Blue Mystery Blast treat in addition to our other free and tasty snacks. And with 36 channels of free, live TV, you can tune in to Halloween-themed shows and movies to put you in the spirit.” Airheads Senior Brand Manager, Irene Pritchett says, “Kids and adults love the bold colors and flavors of Airheads taffy bars. But what they love most is all the fun ways they can eat them. And what could be more fun than eating them at 30,000 feet as a Halloween treat?”
Whether traveling to a favorite haunt or visiting a previously unknown destination, customers flying JetBlue are treated to the JetBlue Experience 365 days a year, including 36 channels of free, live TV, free and frighteningly good snacks and beverages, award-winning customer service, comfy leather seats and mysteriously generous legroom (the most of any other airline in coach).
