All-you-can-eat airfare?

JetBlue is regularly at the forefront of the air travel industry. They were one of the pioneering brands on Twitter. They recently launched a deals-via-Twitter feed, @JetBlueCheeps. And now…well now they’ve raised the bar even higher. I just noticed the following tweet via @JetBlue:

At first I had to wonder why it would be worth it. But that lasted for all of about 3 seconds when I realized that I’d just paid $335 for a single round-trip flight in January. For a few bucks more, the All-you-can-jet pass would cover that trip and another weekend jaunt to wherever I want that JetBlue flies (according to the fine print, the pass includes domestic taxes and fees, though international flights will incur a extra cost to cover those).

It appears that this might be a test-run for a further program as it’s only available for travel from Sept. 8 to Oct. 8, 2009 - I’m going to venture a guess that perhaps this is a slow season for the airline. But regardless, for the cost of a ticket-and-a-half, you could take a serious vacation. Or fund your business travel for the entire month.

Personally, I think it’s a great idea. Go JetBlue!
