I am taking a look now at Mosaic 1 status,
It includes free bags ( I already get that with credit card)
Free even more space seats at check in ( this has value if there are any seats left to choose at check in) But even this might be getting devalued as Jetblue plans to reduce all seating pitch as they configure planes for first class)
3 free drinks (value to some but not really any value for me) I was Mosaic from around 2018-2022 and I did not find their choice of drinks appealing, but that could just be me??
Same day flight change on SOME fares (this has value to me but since it is not on all fares, it is tricky to value)
As far as 25 years Mosaic, I dont think anyone here believes JetBlue will be around for 25 years, so the guess is what will eventually happen to the company. Bought out, shut down etc (also will the company acquiring them honor this??)
Maybe the valuation of $1,270 a year from Nerdwallet is accurate but I would not pay over 100 a month for Mosaic 1.

Considering it costs around $5,000 to earn it, I suppose there's an argument that you might as well go out of your way to do this and get it for 25 years instead of not going out of your way, spending a similar amount this year anyway, and only getting it for one year.
I'm confused by your mileage commentary. This promotion will award a total of 350,000 miles, not 1 million, and is typically worth $4,900-5,250.
