JetBlue lets you have in-flight watch parties

Ditch the "play at the same time and pray" method! JetBlue's in-flight entertainment system gets a makeover with Blueprint, offering a more personalized experience. The star feature is the watch party function, allowing you and up to five fellow fliers to enjoy the same movie or show seamlessly. You no longer have to struggle with syncing playback or pausing for bathroom breaks. It'll pause for everyone if one hits the button.

But wait, there's more! Blueprint caters to individual tastes. By creating an account, you'll get personalized content recommendations based on what you've watched before. Plus, save your favourite shows and movies for easy access, and even pick up where you left off on a previous flight—perfect for long layovers or return trips.

JetBlue's partnership with Peacock adds to the entertainment selection. Binge on shows like Twisted Metal and Mrs. Davis, with promises of even more exclusive content and offers coming soon.

Currently, Blueprint graces JetBlue flights with AVANT seatback touchscreens, including the Airbus A321neo, A321LR, and A220.
