NEW YORK, Jan. 11, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- JetBlue Airways (Nasdaq:JBLU) is pleased to announce that starting today, customers may purchase cruises on cruises.jetblue.com. Customers are guaranteed the lowest cruise price available(a), and all cruise lines are available for purchase on the low-fare, low-cost airline's website.
"Our customers told us they love flying JetBlue to their port-of-call, but buying their cruise from one place and their air travel from another website was a hassle," said Trey Urbahn, EVP, Chief Revenue Officer for JetBlue. "As of today, www.jetblue.com offers customers one-stop shopping for cruises and JetBlue air travel, giving our customers the confidence that they are getting the best available deal, and making the purchase as pleasant as the trip."
Featured cruises, last minute deals and information for first-time cruisers is available at cruises.jetblue.com. Cruises through June 2008 are available for sale. Available cruises are not limited to those arriving or departing from cities JetBlue currently serves. "Our customers have come to rely on JetBlue's service, so even if we can't fly you to your port-of-call, you can still purchase your cruise at cruises.jetblue.com," Mr. Urbahn said. "And who knows? We may start flying to your favorite port sooner than you think!"

Best Price Guarantee applies only to rates available to the general public. It does not apply to consolidator, group, incentive, interline, meeting, or convention rates that are not available to the general public.

Best Price Guarantee applies only to the cost of the cruise (including port charges). Promotional packages, group deals, air or land components, shipboard credit, transfers, pre- or post-cruise hotel stays, and shore excursions are not eligible. Taxes and fees, which vary by itinerary, are not included. To claim a refund, the customer must contact 1-800-887-8111 within 48 hours of original JetBlue Cruises purchase and must be prior to the commencement of cruise travel. The lower advertised rate must be available for booking at the time customer contacts 800-887-8111.
