Boeing is protective of their new-built 777 freighters, thus a price for conversion is offered that does not make sense to do, from an airline's point of view. NO worries- there are several other companies capable of the work, with no concern over the price of new freighers, rather just looking to capture some of this work, most certainly less than Boeing wants to charge.

i hate to side with airline management, BUT, these costs reflect some portion of actual damages, and the passenger is logically and legally responsible. Maybe the guy is clastrophobic.... that would excuse it in my book.....

i may date myself by saying I used to be a passenger on eastern airlines between San Juan and Miami, usually in First Class, and can recall first class meals were served out of a serving cart, with choices right there. Make that in the 70's.... First class meant classy; how I hate to fly now because the flight is not pleasent in any way. Some who gives a ..... if JetBlue does this or any other latest whim from corporate.

the pilot did right. If he is stuck in a devolving system of unsafety, then it makes perfect sense for him to walk away

like Rosana R'osana-donna (gilda radner)used to say, "nevermind". I neglected to recall the improbabilites with making an airframe having more cargo capacity. We gotta put the passengers, in sufficient numbers, somewhere on the plane. so Nevermind...
