The policy says that I must pay for the flight with the JetBlue Plus card in order to get the free checked bags.

Is this policy enforced, do you actually have to pay with the card?

Does anyone know if I will be able to have the free checked bags on this upcoming flight?

I have a similar situation, except my flight is not until next March, and I have not applied for the JB card yet. At the time I booked my flight, I called JB to ask about the situation, since there are two valuable benefits associated with the card: 1) free checked bag, and 2) 10% points rebate. The agent told me that I could get the benefits by calling JB to change my payment to the JB card.
