LOL. 1:1 and you still pay the excise tax. Go home, Amex, you’re drunk.
You’re not funny and no one likes you.
Jetblue sometimes has solid economy point redemptions (1.5+ cpm) so not a bad boost. Still annoying that you have to pay the point excise fee
Paying Jetblue with cash and points was crap last time I used them. Around 0.8c. Check your valutations before you transfer anything
