JetBlue Airways has better coffee

Filed in archive News on April 1, 2006

Most of us need a cuppa to keep our blood flowing. However, when you are on-board and off to fly somewhere, you just cannot expect a good cup of coffee to keep you alive. And as theorized on MSNBC by James Wysong, airlines are probably serving decaf.

"Many flight attendants brew only decaffeinated coffee. Are they concerned about your jangled nerves? Not particularly. It's just that they'd rather have sleeping passengers than a hyperactive crowd any day."

JetBlue Airways, though, decided to be a level higher (at least, when it comes to coffee) by partnering with Dunkin' Donuts to give their passengers hot, freshly-brewed ten ounce cup of Dunkin' Donuts Original Blend or Dunkin' Decaf. And yes, passengers are allowed to ask for seconds or thirds.

I wonder if an airline company would soon start making their stewardesses double as Starbucks barista.

Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?
