Paying for extras on plane trips out of Worcester is going to get a bit easier for those with an iPhone as Jet Blue announced Tuesday that it will be the first major domestic carrier in the U.S. to accept Apple Pay during flights.
The only commercial airline to operate out of Worcester Regional Airport announced that customers will be able to use Apple Pay to purchase in-flight “premium offerings” on all flights beginning in June. People flying with an iPhone 6 will soon be able to pay for in-flight food, beverages and upgraded seating.
"Customers want an easy and fast transaction when they decide to make an on-board purchase so that they can get back to enjoying their flight,” Marty St George, senior vice president of commercial at JetBlue, said in a statement.
The rollout of Apple Pay will begin on transcontinental flights in mid-February.
