- Welcome back to another Business Class fight video my friends! I didn't think we'd be flying luxuriously in the sky again so soon! Join me today as I experience America's Best Business Class - JetBlue Mint. In this episode, I'll be flying from New York to Los Angeles over 6 hours on JetBlues A321 aircraft (ps. this business class layout is one of their older products, so I've been told). We'll check out the food (which is not your usual airplane meal), the service, the seat, the amenities and spoiler alert - I discover something on this flight that I've never experienced before on a plane!! I can't wait for you to join me!

Hej hej allihopa! ("Hey everyone" in Swedish) We are Chloé, the Kiwi, and Ludvig, the Swede. We met at a Ski Resort in Canada and have since been travelling the whole world together. Our aim is to provide you with helpful travel tips and entertainment from around the globe, hopefully inspiring you to EXPLORE MORE! We love adventure ...with a touch of luxury. You can expect to hear lots of lame jokes, endure over the top enthusiasm and witness a generous dose of cruises, trains and business class flights....

Everyone and their TH-cam brother does business class flight videos, but your enthusiasm and genuine excitement made it really enjoyable for me. You made me feel like I was experiencing it for the first time. Well done.
😂😂 love that!! And very true. Yay glad you still enjoyed the video and got to experience it with me!!
Totally agree. 100%. So refreshing and your on camera excitement is contagious.
101% agree! Your childlike glee just radiates gratitude and being grounded ❤❤️❤️ Watching more of your vids!!!!!
Your infectious enthusiasm and joy in flying make it (a bit) easier to contemplate the next long trip back to the US. Found your channel by looking for non-coach options for the long haul from Australia - your videos give me hope! 😊
Aw that’s lovely to read! I’m so glad I have been able to encourage you a little hehe. Good luck with your long haul journey to the US!
Okay! This was the most absolute cutest flight review video I have ever seen. Keep up the great work!
Definitely try the new hard product of the mint suites! You'll see them going between LAX/SFO and JFK/BOS. The headphones used to be placed on the seats, but they were being swiped by other passengers or taken home by the passengers. Same thing with the amenity kit! There's actually a secondary amenity kit you can ask for.
Cute!!? Thank you hehehe. Glad you enjoyed the flight review! I did too ;) Great to know re the updated version of Mint - I'll have to try it one day when I'm back in the States! And interesting about the headphones - happy they still hand them out :D
They also go FLL to LAX non-stop and likely the reverse. As to the headphones, ask a flight attendant early. Waste time and miss your benefits. You paid enough to ask questions for free.
Awesome job Chloe! Love watching your videos, very informative! Thanks for doing them!
Thanks so much Vince!! Happy to hear 😁
I love watching your traveling videos, your enthusiasm is so fun and contagious! Thank you!
Yay! Thank you so much - I’m so happy you enjoy the enthusiasm 😆 thanks for the comment!
Yay! Love this Chloe! Hope to see you with a million subs next week 😊 surprised you don’t already!
Haha thank you!!! Wouldn't that be great if a million people pop up next week! Ya never know ;) Thanks for joining me!
Love your energy make me happy
Aw love that!! So nice to hear!!
Loving your videos, Chloe!! You have the absolute best energy & vibes and you really make me want to travel, haha
Aw thank you Kelly!! Haha love that I am encouraging you!! Thanks for joining me!!😁😁
Very good reel. I also traveled with jetBlue MINT from New York JFK to San Diego last year. However, the ticket price was quite high ($838 for a one-way JFK-SAN ticket even if it was more expensive with Delta), no door to isolate oneself in rows 2 and 4 was working and therefore could not be closed and the cubby door also had difficulty opening and closing. Despite all these minor
inconveniences, I really enjoyed to fly with jetBlue in Mint class, it was much better than when I went back from San Diego with Delta (it was cheaper) in their new A321neo first class. The only advantage is I was able to enjoy the Delta Sky Club in San Diego airport as I then returned to Paris from JFK the next day in business class with Air France, Delta's partner company
Ahh wow that’s quite a bit more expensive! Glad you still enjoyed your flight though 😁 I’d like to try delta at some point too! Thanks for watching!
Your video brings such joy
Oh thank you Robin!! :D Happy to hear!!
You made this review so much fun.
Yay that’s so great to hear 😆
Very good review. I also traveled with jetBlue MINT from New York JFK to San Diego at the beginning of August. However, the ticket price was quite high ($837,90 for a one-way JFK-SAN ticket even if it was more expensive with Delta), no door to isolate oneself in rows 2 and 4 was working and therefore could not be closed and the cubby door also had difficulty opening and closing.
Despite all these minor inconveniences, I really enjoyed to fly with jetBlue in Mint class, it was much better than when I went back from San Diego with Delta (it was cheaper) in their new A321neo first class. The only advantage is I was able to enjoy the Delta Sky Club in San Diego airport as I then returned to Paris from JFK the next day in business class with Air France, Delta's partner company. You should try next Virgin Atlantic Upper Class, it's their business class
Oh well good to hear you still enjoyed JetBlue Mint! Yes, the flights were all quite pricy - mine was actually one of the cheaper ones I could find. I'm quite keen to try Delta one day too!
And thanks for the tip on Virgin! That will now go on my list :)
I knew i would enjoy this subscription after that Amtrak video. Anotha winner girl!!
Aw thank you! Big smile over here!
Thank you for sharing ypur flight here on JetBlue. Yes, most of travelers nowadays have their own headsets and we us them on most flights. I have always carry two sets with me. And I continue to carry hand wipes to clean airplane headsets and other items in my seat area.😊 So, next tome you fly have your own headsets or two or three as a backup when you fly.😊
Again, I hope you are able to use your credit card or airline points more in the future for Business Class on those long-haul flights.😊
Ahhh good to know!! Thanks so much for watching!😊
Nice! Thanks for the tour of business class. It looks swanky in there!
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching!
I’m usually not the biggest fan of voice over, but you do it absolutely seamlessly and it works so well with your editing style, which is great! Thanks for bringing us along!❤
Aw thank you Elizabeth!!! That’s such a lovely comment to read! I usually like to do mix of voice over and ‘present moment’ but don’t like to bother other passengers when on a plane haha 😆
Nice review, as always.😊. I'm so glad that you were able to experience JetBlue's Mint Class. It really is the best Business Class service for a transcontinental flight in the States. Take care and have a wonderful New Year of adventures.
Thanks so much for watching!! It was a great experience :D
You are so good at this!
Thank you so much! Appreciate it :)
Chloe I just love your site ! You bring me joy, and I recommend highly Singapore Airlines and WestJet Canada (business in the 787 international) xxxx
Aw thank you Lynn!! That's honestly so nice to hear! I am definitely going to add those two to my list - thanks for the suggestions ;D
love the video
Woo thats' awesome! Thank you :)
I love how you get so excited I would be the same
Haha I love that Debbie! Happy to hear someone else would get this excited
Love this. BTW, the TWA hotel lobby and bar and rooftop area are fantastic but you DO NOT have to stay there to access those. And, the rooms are expensive and not worth the price. I recommend enjoying it as a visitor but don't stay there.
Oooh okay - very helpfully tips there! I didn’t know you could visit as a guest! Thank you
Thanks!
Oh wow thank you Cindy!! That is so kind!!
I love how you say sneaky. You’ve got me saying sneaky now
Haha love it!! :D
Great content! Such a great spacious seat. Perhaps Emirates (a380) for the next business class type seat? I saw a commercial that shows being able to take a shower while flying! 🚿
Yay thank you! Oo yes that flight would be incredible!! I’ll place it on my bucketlist hehe
I propose that you two celebrate reaching your first million subs with a long-haul first-class flight on a top-tier airline.
That is a wonderful proposal! I think we might just do that!😆
whenever you have food or drinks that slide across the tray table, just dampen a facecloth, hand towels, etc to place plates and containers on. They won't slide around. If no cloth rowes triple up with damp paper towels or napkins.
Ahhh very handy tips! Thank you :D
Wonderful job as always Chloe😊 One good thing to point out is that this is the older first gen JetBlue Mint product and they have a newer product called Mint Suites and Mint Studio on their latest A321neos and A321LRs (primarily on their transatlantic flights to Europe but sometimes they pop up for domestic legs). That new iteration is in a 1-1 layout so everyone gets direct aisle access.
Also good thing to know is that JetBlue recently partnered up with Qatar Airways and you can now redeem Avios points for JetBlue flights. This is useful also for other flavours of Avios such as British Airways, Iberia and Aer Lingus as these can be shuffled over to Qatar Avios to make the booking
Ahhhh! Full of great info you are! Thanks for sharing this - I didn't know any of it ;) Slowly learning all of the flight facts hehe. Cheers for watching! :D
With a single aisle aircraft you don't have much room for more than 1-1 and 2-2 alternating.
That massage feature is the best! Gotta take my aunt on a Mint flight 🙏🏾.
Ooh yeah? I never seemed to get it working haha
Another great video Chloe! We live in Auckland and totally agree that our credit card options are way more limited here. Having said this, we recently acquired the Amex Platinum card. Expensive annual fee but it comes with lots of travel perks (including hotel statuses and airport lounge passes) and the points you earn can be transferred to all sorts of things, they’re way more flexible and versatile than Air NZ Airpoints. We discovered that Amex points can be transferred to Marriott points. In addition to using them for Marriott hotel stays, we have also transferred them on from Marriott to United Airlines (they have 30+ international airlines you can transfer to)! We are about to book two business class flights from LAX to London this way (no chance we could do this otherwise😂). Anywhoo, love your videos, keep up the great work!
Wow, thanks so much for the info!! I have actually had that card in the back of my mind for a while, but you’ve confirmed I will go ahead and upgrade!! The expensive annual fee definitely sounds worth it for all of the perks - and like you say, more versatile than my current card. Enjoy your United Business class flight!!🥳🎉
@@chloeandludvig Oh, and while of I think of it, historically every six months or so Marriott/Amex will run a 50% bonus points transfer promo. When the promo is on, for every Amex point transferred you will get 1.5 Marriott points, instead of the standard 1 Amex point equals 1 Marriott point. This can really ramp up your Marriott points if that's what you want to use these for!
Thanks
Wow that is so Nice of you!!! Thank you!!! Im going go and buy a latte to celebrate :D
I'm doing this. The price wasn't so bad. For the experience. I have a Discover card and the points are absolutely ridiculous. They give you something like 2 points for every dollar you spend. Or 1 point for everyday purchases and 2 points for every Amazon dollar you spend. Something like that. It's purchased me entire vacations before. I pay my rent and my tuition with it and then just pay the bill. Its like getting free stuff lol. Just an idea for you to nab points. Great video, as always. ❤❤
Oh wow that’s awesome! I’m not sure if we’re able to get that in New Zealand but it doesn’t hurt to look! Thanks for that!!😁
cute hat
Thank you!
You definitely need to try the Emirates experience either business or first class.
Ooo that’s a goal for sure!!
Not weird I love flying too.
Take off so fun.
Btw I'm from Montreal when did you come back.
It’s awesome right?!? Very cool!! Hopefully this year!
@@chloeandludvig LOVELY
Being richer I would take flight for the sake of flying:)
@@chloeandludvig
I'm leaving for Saint-Martin island in the Caribbean on the 3 of February and I'm not so sure what is giving me more joy the flight or the holiday
another amazing video . and you are so damn ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aw haha thanks Ron! I don’t know about adorable, but hey, I’ll take it! 😆
That price is not that bad tbh. I think I’d value this type of experience in Business class for that much because of everything you’d get. Though, id probably seek to pay $100 less for the trip though because, from my knowledge, I don’t get lounge access on either end of the journey (But feel free to correct me if I’m wrong😊)
It was daintily worth it in my book! Such a fun experience and yes you do get lots of little extras. You are correct - there didn't appear to be any lounge access for this airline! Thanks for joining me!
OMFG THEIR LASAGNA so god damn good
It is incredible right?!
Next JetBlue JFK Terminal 5 visit - look for the JetBlue Rooftop Terrance #NonLoungeLoungeForAll
Oooo I shall! Thank you!
one of the few reasons JBLU has my loyalty is bc of those god damn almonds tbh
Those almonds are something else!!!
My first experience with flying was HORRIBLE! From so.bend to Colorado. Hit turbulance all the way there. Thought the plane was gonna come apart. Get to Colorado and had to circle cuz there was a bad storm below. 7 planes circuling 😮. Flew a few times after that and was ok. Latly watching videos where planes crash. Whoa, a lot due to pilot errors or maintenence. I think ill drive from hear on out! Be safe!
Oh wow that’s a shame! But thanks for watching any way haha😁
I enjoy your channel and suggest if you're going to spend way over $700 for a one way ticket where the movie selection doesn’t work, you have to ask for headphones and dinner is a bunch of appetizers, at least take a limo to JFK not the subway.
Dang it, next time ;)
Honestly that’s cheap for first class it can and does go as high as $1500 and some airline $2500 for that same route. I paid $730 jfk-las . Cheapest I ever seen was SEA-BOS $649
Oh wow that’s good news for me then!😁😁
People keep taking the headphones 🎧 thinking it's part of your amenities to keep.
Ahhhh I see… that’s silly!
Which programs do you typically use to edit?
I just use iMovie at the moment haha... thinking about upgrading one day! What about you?
Think about a new Ms. Bean. You could be one. (yknow like Mr. Bean)
I am a huge fan of Mr Bean. Would love to be the Ms!
Whenever I fly (which is not often) from the moment the door is closed I am consumed by only one thought - 'My God! If anything happens to this plane at any point in this flight, we are all DEAD!' And that thought is completely predominant in my mind until I feel the plane's wheels safely touch the ground. It is then I realize that I am back to being safe and I won't die in an airplane crash today. That's what flying is like for me.
Oh my, that doesn’t sound pleasant at all. Sorry to hear about your flying experience! Perhaps you prefer train rides etc?
Oh no! So much anxiety, sorry to hear
You think that’s good wait till you see their suites
I have seen these on TH-cam myself!! Can't wait to try these next time ....fingers crossed ;)
ngl it's pretty obvious you're not used to business class. brokie
Well done picking up on that!
gotta work on your voice... it's very annyoing
It’s probably easier if you don’t watch :)
Her voice is wonderful.
