JetBlue’s service from Boston to Philadelphia will provide more options for the traveling public, inviting customers to experience comfy leather seats with the most legroom of any other domestic airline in coach (b), free snacks and drinks, free live entertainment and very soon in-flight Wi-Fi service.
Also, in partnership with First Book, JetBlue will be donating 1,776 books to Stonehurst Hills Elementary in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania and KenCrest Services, an Infant/Toddler Home Community Program with 325 pre-K students with developmental disabilities located in Philadelphia. First Book provides new reading materials to children in need, addressing one of the most important factors affecting literacy – access to books.

I want to acknowledge JetBlue for recognizing the value of doing business with the greater Philadelphia region and business community."
