You may have read a couple of weeks ago that Spirit Airlines has agreed to be acquired by JetBlue in a $3.8 billion merger. JetBlue, a Veterans Advantage exclusive partner since 2014, will become one of America’s top five airlines.

With our exclusive 5% OFF + free bags combined offer, we’ll no doubt be able to offer more for our members and at tremendous value. “With a larger footprint, the combined airline will bring JetBlue’s low fares and much-loved award-winning onboard service to more customers and communities,” JetBlue.com said in a statement at the end of July.

After closing, the combined JetBlue/Spirit airline network will offer 1700+ daily flights to 125+ destinations—and the low fares and award-winning service Veterans Advantage members have grown to love since 2014. Stay tuned for more updates!

Scott’s View: The True Meaning of the 4th of July: More Than Just Fireworks

This July 4, images of fireworks, backyard barbecues, and festive parades fill our minds. These celebrations are certainly a joyous part of American tradition, but beneath the sparkle and good cheer lies a deeper, more profound meaning — one rooted in sacrifice, courage, and the unwavering pursuit of freedom.

Scott’s View: PTSD Awareness Day: Remembering Paul Bucha's Call to Action

Next Friday, June 27, marks PTSD Awareness Day—a crucial time for us to come together, raise awareness, and offer unwavering support to those living with Post-Traumatic Stress. It's also a day to actively work towards dismantling the stigma that far too often prevents our service members from seeking the help they need.
