JetBlue Partners With Vault Health to Offer Coronavirus Tests
Read MoreHide Full Article
Amid coronavirus-induced suppressed air-travel demand, JetBlue Airways Corporation (JBLU - Free Report) is trying various methods to attract passengers. In its latest initiative, the airline in partnership with Vault Health launched a COVID-19 “At-Home” testing program for its customers with pending travel plans. The reliable at-home test facility will make it easier for customers to travel to destinations that have mandatory quarantine requirements upon arrival.
In collaboration with JetBlue, Vault Health will handle all testing as well as provide JetBlue customers discounts on their tests and a dedicated customer support phone line. The full PCR testing process is administered through an online video connection with a supervisor who ensures the customer is providing with proper saliva sample. The test results are provided in 72 hours or less. To avoid contamination in the period of rising air travel demand, negative PCR results are required to avail entry in certain states and countries.
JetBlue’s partnership with Vault Health is part of the airline’s broader safety from the Ground Up program that focuses on healthy crewmembers, clean air and surfaces, fewer touch points as well as travel flexibility.
A similar course of action will be taken up by Hawaiian Holdings’ subsidiary Hawaiian Airlines where the airline will begin offering drive-through COVID-19 tests to travellers from selected U.S. mainland cities so that they can escape Hawaii's mandatory 14-day quarantine requirement in case they test negative. Hawaiian Airlines’ move to offer coronavirus tests to some travellers resembles a similar measure taken by United Airlines (UAL - Free Report) . The carrier recently launched a COVID-19 pilot-testing program to make it easier for customers to travel to destinations that have mandatory quarantine. In another move to attract passengers in the current scenario, last month, the airline permanently scrapped change fees on all standard Economy and Premium-class tickets for domestic travel . Following this, Delta Air Lines (DAL - Free Report) too eliminated change fees permanently.
These Stocks Are Poised to Soar Past the Pandemic
The COVID-19 outbreak has shifted consumer behavior dramatically, and a handful of high-tech companies have stepped up to keep America running. Right now, investors in these companies have a shot at serious profits. For example, Zoom jumped 108.5% in less than 4 months while most other stocks were sinking.
Our research shows that 5 cutting-edge stocks could skyrocket from the exponential increase in demand for “stay at home” technologies. This could be one of the biggest buying opportunities of this decade, especially for those who get in early. See the 5 high-tech stocks now>>
