We know JetBlue doesn't fly to PHL but with this offer, you may wish it did (Newark and Baltimore are the closest airports it serves). The airline is selling a $599 (plus tax) "All You Can Jet Pass" that will allow you to take an unlimited number of flights between Sept. 8 and Oct. 8. The airline serves the West, parts of the South and Southwest and the Caribbean. This is similar to some tourist air passes that some countries and groups of airlines overseas sell that provide an unlimited amount of travel within a particular time period. But we haven't heard of something similar in this country in a long time.

We predict here and now that we will see stories during September and October about the JetBlue customers who have used the pass dozens of times, either making lots of business trips or flying off for fun -- just because they can. Find more information at www.jetblue.com.

    It just may be worth the drive to Newark or Baltimore. Maybe it is time for JetBlue to come to Philly to freshen up the aviation market.
