YouTube video report:
Inbound was delayed for three hours, but even with the delayed inbound, there was still an hour for turnaround.
Traffic was terrible at JFK today, attributed to the busy summer season, so there was quite a lot to spot as I waited.
Today's plane, N943JT, "Blue carpet treatMint", 3.6 years old.

The first FA to greet me at the door came across as snobbish as she commented on me taking photos, however, the rest of the FAs were great throughout the flight, especially the one who was managing the rear of the economy cabin.
My first impression of the cabin was how used it seemed for a plane just 3.4 years old, with scuffs and marks everywhere. The white and grey plastic did not help in hiding the wear, and overall gave the cabin a drab and barebones feel. Otherwise, the seats were decently comfortable and legroom was decent. The TV screens were low resolution, and not very responsive to touch. Still, there was a good amount of movies and tv shows loaded into it.
By far the most commendable aspect of jetblue was its free "flyfi", which offers free wifi to all passengers. The speed was decent enough to load webpages, and I had no complaints, although I would not recommend the free service to stream videos.
Another highlight is that JetBlue offers free unlimited snacks. That's right, unlimited snacks. There was a mini-bar in between the Mint and economy cabins, where anyone could go up and grab a free snack.
I filmed the whole thing to make a youtube video as well, so a little behind the scenes on how I managed to keep the camera so still
Because of the late inbound and congestion at JFK, we took off almost two hours late, but made up an hour to arrive only one hour late at SFO. Good old JetBlue, king of delays.
A somewhat parallel landing at SFO.
Held between the runways for 10 minutes, but finally made it to the gate.
A little spotting at SFO after arrival. Visit my Instagram @GE90man for more pictures.
