JetBlue Ends Hot Food Service in Economy on Transatlantic Flights

JetBlue Airways has discontinued hot food service for economy passengers on its transatlantic flights. The airline introduced the change after a trial on its seasonal Dublin and Edinburgh routes this summer, rolling out the updated core menu across all six of its daily transatlantic flights this fall.

In a statement, JetBlue explained that the change helps maintain the quality of service while keeping fares competitive. The updated menu features chilled meals designed by Dig, a popular New York-based fast-casual restaurant. While hot meals are no longer served in economy, passengers can still enjoy options like a breakfast crepe on morning flights and a chicken grain bowl for evening journeys.

JetBlue’s Mint business class passengers will continue to receive hot meals on these routes. The changes in the economy cabin service took effect on September 1, according to a spokesperson for the airline.

JetBlue has been working to reduce costs and streamline its services following the Biden administration’s block of its proposed merger with Spirit Airlines. The decision to eliminate hot food in economy is part of these broader efforts to align with the airline’s strategy.

Despite the changes, JetBlue remains committed to offering a unique inflight experience, and the collaboration with Dig ensures quality chilled meals for economy passengers. The airline continues to stand out with competitive fares and a focus on maintaining customer satisfaction on its transatlantic routes.
