Flight examples
At the end of September, let's say you wish to travel to Amsterdam for a week. In order to get in Amsterdam at 11:35 a.m. on September 28 you can leave New York City at 10 p.m. on September 27 and (hopefully) sleep on the flight.
You can fly back to New York at 1:35 p.m. and arrive at 4 p.m. after almost a week of riding alongside the picturesque canals, indulging in stroopwafels, and visiting museums.
These flights are for the Blue Basic rate, which since it's a transatlantic journey permits one carry-on bag. Each way, a checked bag costs $65.
Mint seats are offered on the same flights at a higher cost, as seen in the photographs above. The total cost for the round-trip will be $1,893.75.
You will receive comfy, lie-flat seats that are ideal for overnight travel, aisle access, and individualized treatment in exchange. In addition to all the advantages of a Mint Suite, if you choose to choose a seat in the front-row Mint Studio, you will have access to a 22-inch TV, a mirrored vanity, extra storage, and a guest seat for another Mint traveler.

In conclusion
