Redeem miles for JetBlue flights

Any experience in redeem EK miles for JetBlue flights ?

yestarday have spent 30 minutes with EK customers service to try to get JetBlue flight B6 422 Nassau - New York JFK without any success

could it be because now is too early to book flights for August ? I suppose that, but the lady at CC has told me she can’t see this flight as available to be taken with EK miles on any date 🙄

Only ever done it by calling Customer Care. Agents were pretty helpful and were able to easily look up flights/dates that had award availability. If you can book the flight on Jetblue then I assume you can do it with Skywards miles assuming EK has access to award seats.

Caveat: if you're booking less than a week or two weeks from travel, there's an extra fee to pay.

I have phoned again yesterday Emirates CC to check availability on 2 JetBlue flights in USA on next August

i was told actually is possible to book flights until 15/07

i hope in next weeks i’ll be able to have these flights

miles amount is very interesting

JFK-NAS 15 k EK miles + 6$ tax
FLL-JFK 11.5 k EK miles + 6$ tax

Very cheap. It is a bit like EK's partnership with Easy Jet in the EU. Although JetBlue are a much better LCC.

Unfortunately still unavailable to get any flight on August 2019.

CC see flights until end June only ...

At the moment CC will see availability for August no one ticket will be remained.
