The Avenger Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 I know JetBlue used to have Sunday Ticket (there was a thread here about it several years ago), but does anyone know if they still have it on flights today in 2016? Need to make some travel plans this fall and this could help me with scheduling.
machine gun kelly Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Not sure as I usually don't fly on Sunday's. I'm a Tuesday through Thursday guy for work. I know you can stream for free on Jet Blue like Netflix. The reason that's relevant is I watch DTV all the time on my I-Pad at the gym. I assume if I have the ticket, I can watch the games on my I-Pad. If so, you should be able to do it on Jet Blue. Sucks as you can't stream on any other airline. It's all a money grab so you'll buy their movies on Gogo or other termed services.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Did they ever have ST? They only have 30-some channels on their sets.

Need to make some travel plans this fall and this could help me with scheduling. Rarely fly JetBlue , but my guess would be no. Key is if you have options, schedule around the Bills game. Take a 6pm flight and watch the 4pm 2nd half and the highlights in NBC, then. The late game if your flight is that long.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 A lot of flights have wifi now. Put the ST app on your phone and watch that.
Heitz Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Sundays, during football season are strict "No Fly" zones for me! ;-) Not sure on the Sunday Ticket, though guessing if they had it, they would promote it on JetBlue.com! Looks like NFLN, but no ST: http://www.jetblue.com/flying-on-jetblue/directv/
Bills Fan in Beantown Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 A lot of flights have wifi now. Put the ST app on your phone and watch that. I tried watching the Jacksonville game last year with Jetblue wifi - the game that was on yahoo - and the wifi was not strong enough and kept cutting out.
billsfanmiami(oh) Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 I tried watching the Jacksonville game last year with Jetblue wifi - the game that was on yahoo - and the wifi was not strong enough and kept cutting out. Yeah and most of the other airline carries wifi services don't even support streaming video in general.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 I tried watching the Jacksonville game last year with Jetblue wifi - the game that was on yahoo - and the wifi was not strong enough and kept cutting out. Did it cut out for a minute and when it came back on the Jags scored 21 points?
Kirby Jackson Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 They did have Sunday Ticket. I do not believe that they still have Sunday Ticket.
MarkMiller Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Was just on a Jet Blue flight, and can confirm that there is no Sunday Ticket. They do, however, have NFLN. The WiFi is a total joke, IF it even works, so I wouldn't count on that!
Marv's Neighbor Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 They did have Sunday Ticket. I do not believe that they still have Sunday Ticket. They're still trying to get a good deal.
Webster Guy Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Promo's right, just use the wifi and watch it on phone or a pad. Will likely look better on your device anyway, those jet blue tv's are pretty rough. Try to schedule your layover at Logan during week 4 so you can proudly wear your Garappolo=Gibran Hamdan shirt

Chilly Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 JetBlue doesn't use GoGo, which is air-to-ground. They use a satellite based service that they claim delivers broadband speeds. I've streamed Sunday Ticket on it before; didn't get great quality, but it did work.
uticaclub Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 JetBlue lost it's partnership with the NFL. If you remember JetBlue used to be the official airline of the Buffalo Bills, now it's United. They were the official airline of every team that had JetBlue service in their city. Now you get local game on CBS or Fox for LA or NYC, depending on the flight. No Sunday Ticket or RedZone anymore
machine gun kelly Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 No airline allows streaming bu Jet Blue. I'm 100% confirmed on that as I used to fly every week. I'm positive I'm right on all major carriers. If you still can stream on Jwt Blue, and if you have DTV, and the ticket, you should be able to watch the games.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 Jet Blue does have free internet, they call it Wi-Fly (how cute) so if you have ST you could probably log onto your account. If think you could also pay to upgrade to a higher speed. Hope it's a long trip as it wasn't very fast, so may take awhile to connect, but maybe the paid upgrade is good. We happened to be flying right over where my daughter lives and sent her a text to wave. She was shocked as didn't understand how I could be in a plane sending a text.
