NEW YORK, April 10, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- JetBlue Airways Corporation (Nasdaq:JBLU) today announces the expansion of CompanyBlue Meetings, its hassle-free program designed exclusively for corporate meeting planners, to simplify the booking process for Conventions and Associations travel. By offering a meeting-specific discount code, travelers booking through CompanyBlue Meetings can now receive a discount off JetBlue's lowest available fares when entering codes online at www.jetblue.com/promo.

Additionally, for every 40 customers booked to the same event destination, CompanyBlue Meetings provides planners with one complimentary travel certificate (a). The travel certificates may be applied to the current group, used for site inspection or for future travel.

"Whether traveling as a group or booking individual reservations, JetBlue's dedicated Meetings & Conventions Desk works directly with meeting planners to assist with their unique travel needs from start to finish," said Chad Meyerson, Manager of Group Sales for JetBlue Airways. "We make it easy for meeting planners to offer their clients competitive fares, refreshing customer service and an award-winning product while rewarding them with greater flexibility and competitive incentives."

CompanyBlue Meetings' new feature for Conventions and Associations offers a discount off JetBlue's already low fares no matter where attendees are traveling from.
