JetBlue Aims for a Stress-Free Holiday Travel Experience

By , About.com Guide

JetBlue is offering a relaxing airport experience over Thanksgiving. Customers traveling through the airline’s Terminal 5 at New York’s JFK will be treated to free yoga and stress-reducing exercises, makeovers and magic shows on November 25 and 26, 2008. If more similar experiences could happen at airports, it might make the airport a fun destination before your real destination.

This Thanksgiving, customers on JetBlue Airways can aim for a stress-free airport experience at the airline’s brand new terminal, T5, in New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Outside of Thanksgiving there is free Wi-Fi service, but more is on offer during select times on November 25 and 26. JetBlue will be hosting complimentary events for customers - including magic shows, introductory yoga and stress-reducing exercises courtesy of New York Sports Clubs, and five-minute makeovers courtesy of Harmony Pharmacy.
