On shut-eye service, Mint passengers will be able to enjoy a breakfast to-go option featuring Allie’s Banana Bread, a premium New York-based banana bread company. Passengers travelling in JetBlue's core experience on eastbound transatlantic flights can also enjoy this option as a pre-arrival snack. Allie’s Banana Bread’s recipe features real bananas and is served in individual-sized containers with a built-in, fold-out spoon for easy enjoyment in the skies.
In June, Mint travellers can sip an updated wine selection. A 2024 Cellars in the Sky silver medal winner for best business class rosé, Scribe Estate Rosé of Pinot Noir 2023 hails from Sonoma Valley and joins the Mint wine portfolio. Fourth-generation California winemakers and brothers, Andrew and Adam Mariani, harvest pinot noir grapes earlier than others. Coupled with cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean, these grapes yield a particularly fresh and vibrant expression of rosé.
The complete menu is available here.
