Travelers on JetBlue can maximize flexibility by combining points, credits, and payment options. Whether you’re looking to upgrade, use Travel Bank credits, or transfer AmEx rewards, here’s how it all works.

💳 AmEx & JetBlue

• AmEx JetBlue
  
  

If you have American Express Membership Rewards, you can transfer them to JetBlue TrueBlue at a rate of 250 AmEx points = 200 TrueBlue points. Transfers are usually instant, so you can quickly top up for a redemption. Occasionally, AmEx offers bonus promotions (20–25%), giving you better value.

💵 Payments & Financing

• JetBlue make a payment
  
  

Booking a flight on JetBlue.com allows you to pay with major credit/debit cards, Travel Bank credits, or points. JetBlue also partners with financing services like Affirm or Uplift (on JetBlue Vacations packages), giving customers the option to spread payments into manageable installments.

💵 Using JetBlue Credits

• How to use JetBlue credit
  
  

When you cancel or modify a JetBlue flight, the value is stored as a Travel Bank credit. Here’s what you need to know:

• Credits are valid for 12 months from ticketing.
• They can be applied toward airfare and taxes (but not seat fees or extras).
• They automatically appear during checkout when logged into your TrueBlue account.
• You can combine them with one other payment method (like a card).

🎯 Redeeming JetBlue Points

• How to use your JetBlue points
  
  

TrueBlue points can be redeemed directly at checkout by selecting “Use TrueBlue Points” when searching for flights. Redemption is revenue-based, meaning the number of points required fluctuates with cash fares. Mint business-class flights and transatlantic routes often provide some of the best redemption value.

✈️ Seat Upgrades

• Upgrade JetBlue seats
  
  

Want more comfort? Options include:

• Even More Space seats: up to 7 inches of extra legroom, early boarding, and priority overhead bin access.
• Mint cabin upgrades: lie-flat seating and premium service, available on select long-haul and transcontinental flights.
• Upgrades can be purchased via Manage Trips, at check-in, or at the gate (subject to availability). Elite Mosaic members may also receive certificates for complimentary Mint upgrades.
