[^2]\n\nBlueFirst seats will be arranged in a two-by-two configuration and offer five inches of recline and up to seven inches of additional legroom compared with seats in JetBlue's main cabin. [^3]\n\nJetBlue plans to offer BlueFirst throughout its network on aircraft and routes that do not feature its Mint business-class cabin. [^4]\n\nThe new product will begin flying later in 2026, with bookings opening this fall. [^5]\n\nJetBlue CEO Joanna Geraghty stated that domestic first class has become predictable and that BlueFirst offers an elevated experience with thoughtful touches and great value.
