JetBlue Hostage Crisis Spawns a Blog

February 16, 2007 at 3:09 PM | 1 Comment


Behold the birth of JetBlueHostage.com, a blog dedicated to the Great JetBlue Valentine's Day Hostage Crisis of '07. The blog belongs to Jaunted member/commenter jetbluehostage.

The riot is just getting started over there. So far, the blog is calling for weighted compensation--apparently those who were held for 3 hours received the same voucher (good for one free round trip on JetBlue) as those who were held for 11+ hours. Ouch.

Among the worst parts of the non-flight? According to the blog proprietor: "10 hours of carbo loading."

    JetBlue Haiku

    The entire DadLabs production crew recently spent 18 hours in the jetBlue terminal at JFK.  It was Valentine's Day.

    So we're bitter.  But when life gives you lemons, make poetry.

    So we are inviting you, creative DadLabs passengers, to help us shake our puny fists at the man. Submit your poetry that decries/commemorates the recent airline meltdown in the comments here. The bitter editors at DadLabs.com will then select the best poem in each division and and award it a $50 gift certificate at our DadLabs store.

    Our poetry contest has two divisions:

    The jetBlue Haiku
    Show the airline your 5-7-5

    Or

    Enter our "Roses are Red/I Flew jetBlue" category with a variation on the famous verse.
