For some reason i read it as $150.00 since all the other offers i've taken advantage of was cash back.

hm.. Ironically, taking the gift card would be the same value as the offer.
But since it's now in MR points, i want more than 1 cpp for it.
JetBlue points typically redeem for about 1.5¢ apiece when booking Economy Class on JetBlue. You can see this by pricing a dummy booking on JetBlue and comparing the cash cost with the points cost.

That 1.5¢ apiece redemption value will be slightly lessened due to the small fee which Amex charges for MR point transfers to domestic FFPs. (No fee for transfers to foreign FFPs.)
