Ski enthusiasts traveling from the East Coast to Montana this winter may now enjoy JetBlue‘s Mint business class service on flights to Bozeman from two major airports.

Beginning in February next year, during peak winter ski season in Montana, JetBlue will offer its renowned Mint service on three weekly flights to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN) from both Boston (BOS) and New York (JFK).

JetBlue will also operate flights from JFK and Boston to Bozeman on Tuesdays and Thursdays, although these flights will offer standard JetBlue service only.

“We are excited to introduce our award-winning Mint experience to Bozeman and Big Sky, enhancing the travel experience for our customers flying from Boston and New York,” said Dave Jehn, vice president of network planning and airline partnerships at JetBlue.

“With the introduction of Mint and the increased frequency of flights on weekends, we are committed to offering our customers premium travel options, making their journey to Bozeman and back an exceptional experience.”

Currently, JetBlue is the only airline offering nonstop flights from Boston or New York to Bozeman, one of the most popular destinations in the Rocky Mountains and close to numerous world-class ski resorts, including Big Sky and Bigger Bowl.

It’s also a haven for nature lovers, being the gateway to the world-famous Yellowstone National Park and several natural hot springs.

JetBlue’s Mint experience offers passengers a range of perks designed to enhance the overall travel experience. This includes comfy lie-flat seats with premium cushions and bedding, restaurant-quality dining, wellness amenity kits, and a 15-inch IFE screen with on-demand movies and live TV.
