JetBlue is partnering with Kent Hospitality Group’s Crown Shy and Birdee to launch new Mint menus, available online and on select domestic and transatlantic flights beginning July 31, 2026.
Birdee’s breakfast offerings feature a strawberries and cream croissant, mochi waffle with butter and maple syrup, bacon, egg, and cheese on a Parker House roll with harissa aioli, and shakshuka with cherry pepper relish and feta.
Crown Shy’s lunch and dinner selections include a warm Parker House roll with olive labne spread, Crown Shy chicken with citrus-marinated thigh and hot sauce vinaigrette, pork katsu with hot cherry glaze and scallions, razor clam chowder with roasted carrots and thyme, and sweet potato lasagnette with pecorino cream and chervil.
Dessert options feature a chocolate tart with sabayon and port wine syrup, strawberry olive oil shortcake with meringue and crème fraîche, and a warm chocolate chip cookie by Birdee.
Vegetarian, nut-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free options are available throughout the menu.
“The best part of any new Mint menu is seeing it come to life onboard,” said Stephanie Evans Greene, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Brand at JetBlue.
“Our teams worked closely with the talented chefs at Crown Shy and Birdee to thoughtfully adapt their dishes for the onboard experience. We’re excited for customers to enjoy menus that bring two of New York’s most exciting restaurants to their next Mint flight.”
“There are a lot of people who will get their first taste of Crown Shy and Birdee on a JetBlue flight. Whether someone is dining with us in New York City or flying around the world, the goal is always to make them feel genuinely cared for. We’re grateful for the collaboration with the JetBlue team to create dishes that stay authentic to our restaurants while translating naturally to the experience of dining in the air,” said Jassimran Singh, Executive Chef-Partner at Crown Shy, and Renata Ameni, Executive Pastry Chef-Partner at Birdee.
Additional concepts from Kent’s strategic partner Four Clovers Hospitality Group, including Red Hook Tavern and Hometown Bar-B-Que, will join the Mint dining lineup in early 2027 menu rotations.
