However, for those flying in JetBlue’s upper classes – such as those in the frequent flyer loyalty ‘Transatlantic Mint’ programme and business-class – hot meals will still be available. The ‘Mint’ passengers are served different meals depending on where they fly, but guests can expect choices including mushroom rigatoni, chicken milanese and pizza.

JetBlue's economy passengers on transatlantic flights can only order cold meals. The airline has reduced crew numbers after profits dropped.

JetBlue is rolling out new menus for transatlantic flights, and there’s one surprising aspect: there will be no hot meals for flyers in economy class.
