JetBlue is set to streamline its boarding process starting on April 29, 2026, with the company claiming it will make boarding announcements easier to follow and improve the overall experience at the gate. The change is partly aimed at driving additional revenue, with premium passengers and loyalty members expected to continue boarding first.
