"We want to do our part to help the victims of this tragedy."From: NewNowNext
In a quiet move, JetBlue has been offering immediate family members and partners of the victims of the Pulse Nightclub shooting free tickets to and from Orlando.
Though the airline has yet to make a large public announcement about the offer, Facebook and Twitter users started posting about it on social media this past Sunday. Many users praised the company for their support of the victims’ families while sharing the below image.
The offer is valid for family members and partners of those injured or killed in the attacks as well as a fee waiver for customers traveling to or from Orlando who need to make last minute travel changes.
“Like many of you, we continue to watch reports of the Orlando nightclub shooting with great sadness,” begins a blog post on the company’s website. “Our thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.”
“This weekend’s events are felt by all of our 19,000 crew-members, many of whom live in, work from and travel through Orlando—one of our focus cities — at Orlando International Airport, our Orlando Support Center and JetBlue University.”
“We want to do our part to help the victims of this tragedy, as well as support the Orlando community through this difficult time,” the post concludes.
In addition to the free travel and fee waiver, JetBlue is also set to make a charitable donation to support the victims and their families.
