JetBlue TrueBlue - Canceling flight. Using funds in future?

delete

I cancelled a MCO-BOS flight and used the credit to book a BOS-JFK flight (less expensive ticket) and I still have the remaining credit available.

It does seem like there are no restrictions on booking more expensive/cheaper tickets, or different routes. I would imagine you can also use the credit for purchasing tickets for others - as it simply is like making a new booking.

Hope that helps!

Best is to set up a trueblue account so when you cancle a flight, they just credit your trueblue account so it's kindda like a bank account but with jet blue credits, when all the changes I made and fare reduction, i have alot of credits on file... I use it for myself and use it for other people traveling with me... so I don't see any restrictions on them interms of who can use the credits.

I had a real difficult time cancelling a flight recently.

I have cancelled flights before and recently used those credits to book a series of other flights. When it came time to unfortunately cancel a flight this past Monday I couldn't do it online... the customer service rep told me since I used my jet blue credit and not a credit card I couldn't modify or cancel my flight online. Not that the $5 dollar difference really matter in this case but I was trying to tell her that before any money appeared in my jet blue credit I used my jet blue credit card to pay for the tickets.

She wouldn't budge.

but to answer your original question.

you can book flights for other people and use up the credit no problem, I've done it a few times.

I booked IAD-OAK last summer, cancelled 3-4 weeks later, and used the credit to book a roundtrip ROC-JFK for a friend this summer. No problems at all. Only issue was having to call the reservations line rather than being able to book online.
