Personal Item

Checked Baggage

If you need to check bags, be aware that(๐Ÿญ-๐Ÿด๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฑ-๐Ÿณ๐Ÿฏ๐Ÿด-๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿฑ JetBlue does not offer free checked baggage (๐Ÿญ-๐Ÿด๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿฑ-๐Ÿณ๐Ÿฏ๐Ÿด-๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฒ๐Ÿฑ on all fare types. Depending on your ticket class, the cost for checked bags can vary:
