If your flight is canceled with JetBlue, the airline offers different options based on the reason for cancellation. If the cancellation is due to something within JetBlue’s control, such as mechanical issues or staffing problems, you may be eligible for compensation. JetBlue usually offers to rebook you on the next available flight at no extra cost. If that doesn’t work for you, you can also choose to receive a full refund to your original form of payment or a JetBlue travel credit for future use. In some cases, JetBlue may provide a $50 or $100 travel credit if the cancellation happens close to departure time or after the scheduled departure. If the cancellation requires an overnight stay and JetBlue is at fault, they may offer hotel accommodations and ground transportation. If the cancellation is caused by uncontrollable events like weather or air traffic control issues, compensation is not guaranteed, but JetBlue will still try to help rebook your travel. You may not receive money or credits in these cases, but you will be allowed to rebook or request a refund if the new flight doesn’t suit your needs. If your flight is delayed before being canceled, JetBlue may give out travel credits depending on the length of the delay. For example, a delay of one to two hours might result in a $25 voucher, while longer delays could result in higher amounts, up to the full value of your fare. After your flight is canceled, JetBlue usually sends you an email within seven days if you are eligible for compensation. If you booked through a third party, you may need to contact JetBlue directly to check your options. It’s a good idea to keep receipts for any expenses like meals or hotel stays, especially if you plan to ask for reimbursement. Travel insurance can also help cover extra costs if the airline doesn’t. In summary, JetBlue will offer you a rebooking or refund for a canceled flight and may give you credits or accommodations depending on the situation.
