JetBlue Vacations is built for travelers who want to lock in a Caribbean or Florida trip without paying in full on day one. Packages can be booked with a low $99 deposit, and a current offer takes up to 50% off the flight portion when you book and travel by 2/10/27. Beyond Flights + Hotel, it sells Flights + Cruise and cruises, including river cruises with Scenic, Emerald and Viking. Its Insider Experience adds free airport transfers and 24/7 support from a local Insider at select hotels in Aruba, Cancún, Montego Bay, Punta Cana, Nassau, San Juan and St. Lucia, which saves families a taxi hunt on arrival. The site also promotes a Best Price Guarantee, a free carry-on bag and free 24/7 trip planning. Limits: flights are JetBlue only, the 50% flight saving is time-limited, and booking with a travel bank credit or several credit cards means calling the team rather than finishing online.
