If you travel on the cheapest fares it is a downgrade from current product.
If you like the Jetblue product then you are better off with them.
I appreciate the plug. I've been working on a more specific TB2vRR2 comparison (along with about a dozen trip report posts I'm behind on ) and hopefully will have something soon. Generally speaking, yes, fly the product you like. WN has some advantages for frequent fliers, including the elite status benefits and bonuses on higher fares. At the same time, however, the redemption costs can skew higher than they do in TB2 (I think; I need to confirm that still).

I'd probably use AS/WN/VX on the west coast and B6 on the east coast, assuming the cities/schedules/fares work.
