JetBlue Offering 5% Discounts to SMX Local & Mobile Attendees

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

It is only a 5% discount, but if you’re going to SMX Local & Mobile why not fly JetBlue and keep the difference yourself? All you have to do is book online and use the JetBlue promo code. Details are here on the SMX Local & Mobile site.

JetBlue now flies to both SFO and Oakland, though there are many more flights into Oakland. If you’re planning to fly out in the evening, traffic can make both airports difficult to get to. Getting to the Oakland airport can take an hour or more from downtown San Francisco in the evening rush.

Despite their well-publicized melt downs over the last year, JetBlue is still my favorite domestic airline. Most of their people still have that spirit of customer service that most young businesses have. They should bottle that energy.

Speaking of discounts, don’t forget that the early bird discount for SMX Local & Mobile ends at the end of the day tomorrow (Friday, June 20). Register today!
