Mile Trading

So, I have around 30,000 JetBlue miles currently and a trip I was planning was going to use 26,000 of them, but it looks like that trip has been cancelled and I'm trying to work on my plans to go to Tokyo instead. Obviously JetBlue will not help me get to there!

I know there are various point trading websites, but I was just wondering what would be the equivalent mileage for JetBlue to American or British Airways because on JetBlue I can get round trip from JFK - ORL for around 12,800 points whereas on American it would be 25,000 round trip for the same path.

Also, I don't know if this is the correct forum to post in, but if someone has an offer for a trade you are welcome to PM me.

ORL do you mean ORY? AA's Paris flights I believe are CDG-exclusive nowadays (I believe AA served ORY in the 90s). BA probably serves ORY.

Keep in mind, US-->Europe are more "expensive" than 25k US Domestic tickets.

As far as trading sites, you may want to try points.com, however, expect to take a bath with the exchange rates they offer.

Good luck.

I meant Orlando since it's easier to gauge domestic translation between JetBlue and American since JetBlue's international sector is not very robust.
