Portable Electronic Devices

The following electronic devices are permitted for use on board JetBlue flights:

• Smartphones, tablets, electronic readers and other similarly sized devices
• Electric shavers
• Electronic watches
• Hearing aids
• Insulin pumps
• Pacemakers
• Portable voice recorders

The following devices are not permitted.

• Electronic/smokeless cigarettes (disclaimer below)
• Any device the crew believes to be causing interference
• Gas hair curlers
• Radio transmitters (ham, CB, etc.)
• Radios: AM, FM, VHF (battery or cord operated)
• Remote controlled toys
• TV sets

With exception:
Laptop computers and other similarly sized devices must be stowed after the door is closed prior to pushback and while taxiing, and again after cabin preparation prior to descent until arrival at the gate. This precaution is to ensure safe exit of the aircraft in an emergency.

During certain low-visibility landings, devices will not be permitted below 10,000 feet and must be fully powered down – this represents less than 1% of JetBlue flights and those on board will be notified when this is the case.

All portable electronic devices allowed for transport in checked baggage (including smartphones and other devices) should be turned off and protected from accidental activation.

Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes), vaporizer pens and spare batteries are prohibited in checked bags. E-cigarettes and individually protected spare batteries must be carried in the cabin, the device must be in the off position and disconnected from the charging system and battery. Charging of the device and its batteries is prohibited on the aircraft. JetBlue does not permit smoking of the e-cigarettes at gate areas when embarking or disembarking or while inside the aircraft at any time.
