Thank you for Silver!

Correction: it’s supposed to be 768. Don’t know how I landed on 36.
Why Blue Crew?
On May of 2023, I went on a long journey to go to Bangkok for vacation. The first plane I flew was N736JB on my way to JFK. And my very last plane was N763JB, in a special retro livery. When I boarded Blue Crew, the first thing I saw out the window was Bluemanity, a special livery representing all of the workers at JetBlue. I was also in Row 2 with my father, and my little brother in the front with my mother. 2 of my cousins (in which both of them were younger) and their parents went with me on the very same planes, except they sat very far away from us from Orlando to New York and New York to Doha. Yes, I flew Qatar Airways and even got to board a 4-year-old A350-1000 registered A7-AND from Doha to New York. It was an amazing journey and I personally think JetBlue is the best low-cost airline in the world. Ryanair and Spirit are basically polar opposites of JetBlue. Late, bad landings, and mediocre service. I don’t even know what to say anymore, so I’ll end it here.
