JetBlue žádá celebrity, aby se kvůli dobré věci vzdali zavazadel

NEW YORK – A little extra baggage isn’t always a bad thing, especially on JetBlue Airways, the carrier known for offering customers a first checked bag free. To celebrate this liberating experience and help raise money for America’s youth, more than 50 famous musicians, actors and athletes have donated their signed carry-ons, party purses, briefcases, guitar cases and other baggage to JetBlue’s Celebrity Baggage charity auction. The baggage will be auctioned off on eBay, the world’s largest online marketplace, during two seven-day auction periods with 100 percent of the proceeds benefitting the airline’s long-standing charitable partner, DoSomething.org. Bidding is open today through June 6 at www.jetblue.com/celebritybaggage.

Each signed bag includes a custom JetBlue luggage tag and some pieces are accompanied by personal items and unique experiences from the celebrity donor. To get up-close and personal with the baggage, fans can head to Santa Monica Place in Santa Monica, CA where many of the items will be on display and visitors can bid on them directly from their smartphones. In addition to money raised through the auction, fans can also visit JetBlue’s Facebook page to enter for a chance to win a piece of celebrity baggage and, for every entry received, the airline will donate $1 to DoSomething.org.

“Celebrity baggage is some of the most intriguing, highly-coveted and photographed accessories to ever fly in and out of LAX and across our network,” said Icema Gibbs, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility. “Thanks to the generosity of these celebrities, we are excited to give everyone the opportunity to take home a piece of that magic while supporting a great cause. JetBlue remains committed to supporting youth groups in L.A. and across the country with our long-standing partner, DoSomething.org, while generating fun and friendly competition over America’s most-sought after baggage.”

"Opravdu bych si přála, abych se mohla schoulit do tašky celebrit a cestovat s nimi," řekla Nancy Lublin, generální ředitelka a hlavní stará osoba v DoSomething.org. "Už jsem to jednou zkoušel na LAX a nefungovalo to, takže tohle je další nejlepší věc!"
