To receive freebies, carriers must sign up (with an email address) on Verizon’s Connection Day website. In return, here’s exactly what they’ll receive, thanks to partnerships with other companies:
Amazon: 10 free or discounted apps and two free audible downloads for new members; $10 credit audible downloads for current members

JetBlue: Free in-flight Wi-Fi for flights between Nov. 26 and Dec. 31
Pandora: Free 7-day trial of Pandora One
Verizon FiOS: Access to movies and TV shows (with download of FiOS Preview app)
The freebies are a welcome perk on one of the busiest travel days of the year — an estimated 24.6 million are expected to fly for Thanksgiving, according to a new report.
