Tax Day Flights on JetBlue

Good news for taxpayers and liars.

JetBlue feels our Tax Day pain. If you owe money on your 2016 taxes — due, of course, on Tuesday — you’ll eligible for a free trip.

Well, half a trip: It’s just a one-way flight, which seems awfully cheap, no? A one-way fare back from anywhere is expensive!)

Here’s another caveat: All you need to do to substantiate the fact that you’ll owe taxes this year is tick a box — and in fact, the airline says: “[JetBlue] will not, and is under no obligation, to determine the veracity of representations made by entrants.” So: If you’re not lying on your taxes, you can at least lie on your flight entry.

Note: We do not endorse that.

Asterisk: You can enter every day between now and the end of the “promotion period” — April 25. Which, if we’re honest, seems like kind of a lot of work for a one-way flight.

Of course, everyone hates airlines so much this week that basically all they have to do is not injure anyone to consider it a win.

In which case: Great work!
