As the first airline to accept Venmo payments, JetBlue is also the first to contend with online fraud that's common with any digital marketplace.

JetBlue Airways customers can use Venmo to book future flights. The carrier claimed it was the first in the industry to allow customers to use this payment option.

On January 21, JetBlue announced it is the first airline to accept Venmo, giving customers a secure and easy payment option when booking flights directly with JetBlue online. The new payment option is already available for purchases online at jetblue.com and will be rolled out on the airline's mobile app in the coming months.
