JetBlue Introduces Peak and Off-Peak Pricing for Checked Bag Fees
JetBlue has implemented a new dynamic pricing structure for checked bag fees, introducing higher rates for "peak-season" days and an additional $10 charge for bags checked within 24 hours of a flight. The changes, effective for bookings made after March 22, 2024, result in fees ranging from $35 to $50 for a first checked bag on domestic flights, with additional charges for second and third bags, overweight, and oversized bags. JetBlue cited increased costs due to higher wages and fuel prices as the reason for the adjustments, and announced specific peak season schedules through 2025.
