I have the choice of either to fly to Orlando for the same price. I've flown with continental before but never jet blue. Are there any big differences in baggage check in , service, etc?

I prefer JetBlue. They have Direct TV, which will occupy your time.

Have never ridden Jet Blue but I hear they have more leg room in coach. Also slightly wider seats.

I've flown JetBlue almost exclusively for 7 years now and have been very happy with them. I will say that the service at JFK (if that's where you'd fly out of) is just as bad as the other airlines, but overall, I prefer their service. I agree with a pp that the DIRECTV alone makes it more worthwhile.

Have never flown Jet Blue but hear good things about them. Continental, not so much.

I would pick Jet Blue myself and give them a try.

Jet blue hands down. Flying them tomorrow morning. THey are my go to carrier. You did not mention if Continental was non stop because Jetblue is and thats always a deal breaker for me. I would pay extra for nonstop if I was choosing. Either way though, aside from JFK being a disaster most of the time, go with Jetblue.

Don't know how often you fly but whenever i do i try for Continental both domestic and overseas.
I hate JFK but EWR is more than tolerable for me.
For a little flight than that the TV seems like a small issue.
Continental miles rack up and can be used more than Jet Blue ones. (if they exist)
