I was twice sad: First, similar to you, after checking out the deal with a couple of trials, I waited and JetBlue effectively halved the value on one way tickets. Some here characterized this as an initial glitch that got fixed. I don't believe that, but accept the application of the old FlyerTalk adage: "If you snooze, you lose." Second, I checked FlyerTalk too late in the game, only to discover that these were not one-off. Oh, what I didn't save. Lesson re-learned. Wish I didn't have to keep learning it. (Reminder to self: Check the Mileage Run board tab again now.) I digress.
