The company is adding second Saturday seasonal roundtrip Mint flights on three different routes: New York-St. Maarten, Boston-St. Maarten and Boston-Aruba.

The New York-St. Maarten additional Mint flights will launch Jan. 13, 2018, while both Boston-Aruba and Boston-St. Maarten will launch Feb. 17.

Mint amenities also include faster check-in, speed through security and early boarding, along with bag priority.

The seats (which even come with their own doors) include 15-inch interactive video screens with up to 100 channels from DirecTV and SirixuSM Radio.

Dining options include everything from sweet treats from Milk Bar to espresso-based drinks from Brooklyn Roasting Company and curated wines.

Flights from both Boston and New York to Aruba will have daily Mint service from Feb. 15-26, the carrier said.

All seasonal Mint routes in the Caribbean operate through April 2018.

JetBlue already operates year-round Mint service between New York and Barbados, along with seasonal Mint service on New York-Grenada, New York-St. Lucia flights as well.
