"JetBlue Implements Dynamic Peak Pricing for Baggage Fees"
JetBlue Airways is implementing an additional fee for checked bags on peak travel days, adding $5 for the first bag and $10 for the second during high-traffic periods. The cost for checking bags within 24 hours of departure has also increased, with the carrier citing rising transportation costs due to increased wages and higher fuel costs. This move is part of the company's efforts to return to profitability, and it applies to flights within the United States, Caribbean, and Latin America during specific peak travel periods. Customers who booked before March 22 are exempt from peak pricing, and the airline is encouraging pre-payment for bags to save up to $10.
