Best Strategy for Miles
I posted in the JetBlue forum but haven't any bites or responses.
I have a trip booked with JetBlue and Emirates and it’s ticketed through JetBlue. I have rewards accounts with both but have never flown either.
If this were you what strategy works best to maximize rewards/points? Would you use your JetBlue number? Emirates number? Do you earn a hybrid across the two depending on which metal you're flying on? I'm curious how to approach this.
I’ll be flying economy on JetBlue and Business class on Emirates. I hope to take advantage of the chauffeur service in UAE (which I was able to call and book last night without issue - never received a confirmation email though, and can't see any proof of the booking).
Thanks!

Hi davelikestofly
You might want to have a look at some of these threads to see if they are of any help. It is down to what’s going to work better for you, where you’re based and how much travel you’re going to do in the future.
