There will be a new way to fly cross-country next year.

According to USA Today, JetBlue will begin offering a new premium seating section.

Available only on flights between New York and San Francisco and New York and Los Angeles, the new premium section, dubbed “Mint,” will feature lie-flat seats, its own tapas-style menu, and customized amenity kits. The first flight with the new premium section will take off from New York’s JFK to Los Angeles International Airport on June 15, 2014.

The new section is a departure from JetBlue’s policy to treat all passengers equally, but the airline said it is also upgrading its coach seats so no one feels left out.
