“Not all economy class products are the same.”

JetBlue knows economy class.

Fodor’s Travel recently announced the 10 airlines with the best economy class in 2025 and included the airline, a leading carrier at Logan Airport. The recognition comes after the airline won best economy class for the fifth time in The Points Guy Awards 2024 in December. JetBlue is the sole winner of that award since its inception.

“Not all economy class products are the same,” wrote Fodor’s. “Some airlines throw in a few extra amenities and niceties to make the experience ever-so-slightly more enjoyable—everything ranging from free drinks or better-than-average legroom to amenity kits.”

Here’s what Fodor’s wrote about JetBlue:

“When it launched in 2000, JetBlue set out to make the economy class experience better. It eventually introduced a premium cabin, but economy is still the airline’s core product. Every seat has more legroom than competitors, free wi-fi, free snacks, and Pepsi soft drinks or Dunkin’ coffee; plus snack boxes or fresh food available for sale on longer flights. Across the Atlantic, the airline adds free vegetable-forward meals and alcoholic beverages.”

Earlier this year, JetBlue ranked No. 1 among hybrid airlines in the World’s Best Airline Awards by AirlineRatings.com.
