Our Verdict

Not as good as the 100k point bonus we once saw, but I doubt we will see that again. This 80,000 point offer is the best variation that we do see from time to time. I do think this is worth signing up for if you value JetBlue points so we will add it to the best credit card bonuses.    JetBlue award flight prices are linked to the cash price of a ticket, like Southwest. If you have any questions about Barclays credit cards, read this post first.

DP – just got approved for this with $20k credit limit with 814 credit score, pulled TU. Planning couple of trips with Jetblue next year, looks like a sweet deal!

I am lol/24. Bank of America is still giving me cards but that’s about it. No chance this would get approved right?

Is this worth a 5/24 if I’m about to drop to 4/24 in less than 2 weeks?

This same offer popped up on the homepage of jetblue.com and stated, “Exclusive offer from 11/14 – 12/3.”

Was 3/24, and denied with hard pull last week. called recon, they said it was due to too many accounts.. asked to re-evaluate, and they asked for ID verification docs sent via snail mail for approval.. complied and called their recon line today and they had received docs and did final verification, approved for meager $1k limit. In fairness, years ago because of their bad alerts and horrible biz card website, a small balance had accrued on an AA aviator biz card and I didn’t realize after I got a past due letter. Thankfully they didn’t report to personal credit report back then and I paid the small balance but I could never reinstate the credit card so I ended up closing it. Always wondered if I had been blacklisted since then, guess I luckily missed that from happening.

JetBlue points seem to be worth between $0.012-$0.015/pt after checking some mock (domestic and international) bookings, with a heavy skew towards the higher end ~$0.014. That means 80,000 points is worth between $960 and $1200. However there is a 10% redemption bonus? So that adds an additional $96-$120? I’m not including the $99 annual fee.

Anyone knows when one could get the bonus points if got the card and instantly met the spending requirement?

My guess is that the earliest you’d get the points would be after your first statement closes.

I think one of the requirement is to pay off the AF.
Since you can only pay AF after first statement is generated, I am guessing the points are received only in 2nd statement.
I could be wrong!!

I completed the spend requirement and paid the fee but still had to wait until my second statement to get my points.

I’m saving mine for a MINT seat either cross-country or to Europe; I think it’s different for each person how to use the points and there is no right or wrong answer.

MINT across the Atlantic remains the goal although they are getting ridiculously high on points. I find the best use on flights to Central or South America.

Routes from their main hubs in BOS or JFK or FLL to Costa Rica(both airports LIR and SJO) , Colombia(MDE) or Guyana(GEO). Depends on where in the states you are. They also fly to most of the Caribbean. But since their awards are tied to their cash pricing, it is best to compare.
