JetBlue is kicking off the holiday travel season with new onboard experiences designed to make the season more enjoyable for travelers of all ages. From collectible charms and special entertainment lineups to flavorful winter menus inspired by top chefs, the airline is getting festive starting this month.
JetBlue is introducing Blue Charms, a new collectible designed for travelers who love to show off their adventures in style. Modeled after the airline’s classic wings pins, these small, wearable keepsakes can be popped into shoes, bags, or apparel to create a personalized travel memento.
Two debut designs: the Wings Blue Charm and the Spotlight Tailfin Blue Charm are now available upon request on flights throughout the JetBlue network. Both kids and adults can collect them as souvenirs.
This December, JetBlue becomes the first airline to premiere episodes of the new CBS series Boston Blue, the next chapter in the Blue Bloods universe. Starring Donnie Wahlberg and Sonequa Martin-Green, the show follows Detective Danny Reagan’s transition to the Boston Police Department. Fans of the long-running franchise can watch the new series exclusively onboard before it airs widely.
JetBlue is also debuting its Season’s Screenings lineup, featuring classic holiday movies such as Elf, Home Alone, Frozen, and A Christmas Story. For those who prefer heartfelt romances and festive comedies, the Made-for-TV Holiday Flix collection includes A Merry Royal Christmas, Jingle All the Way to Love, and The Perfect Christmas Date.
As 2026 approaches, the Fresh Start collection welcomes travelers into the new year with uplifting films like Eat Pray Love, Soul, and About Time. Passengers can also browse Crewmember Picks, a curated selection of staff favorites, including timeless hits such as The Devil Wears Prada, Wicked, and Jurassic Park.
JetBlue’s culinary offerings in its Mint (Business Class) are also getting a festive upgrade, led by its acclaimed restaurant partner Charlie Bird. Each dish is designed around seasonal ingredients and comforting flavors that capture the essence of winter dining.
Mint Breakfast Menu Highlights:
- Salted Greek yogurt with pumpkin seed granola and currants

In JetBlue’s Core cabin, travelers flying to and from Europe can enjoy seasonal dishes from Dig Inn, a popular restaurant known for fresh, market-inspired meals (I used to love this place for lunch when I worked in NYC).
Breakfast Offerings:
