Anybody found the business card link? In 2011 they had the personal and business card for 20k points, with a lesser spend, but 20k points none-the-less. Used those 40k points for 2 free r/t flights to Colombia! Value can be had for sure if you've exhausted other options.

Isn't this the standard offer? This is what has popped up every time I log into my JetBlue account...

I think it used to be 10K points on first spend (at least if I remember correctly when it was offered a few years ago)

I thought this was the standard offer too...

I think that's the offer on Amex's website, but through JetBlue it's always been 20k that I've seen....

I was under the impression 10k was the standard offer. $1k/3 mo.

I got an email today saying "You asked. We listened."

What does 20k get ya, anyway?

x712xdamx Aug 30, 2013 6:46 am

Right, I got the same email.

Like I said in my first post, I think I got a round trip ticket from JFK to Bogota, Colombia for like 26,000 points in 2011. If I recall, the points are somewhat based on the revenue price of the ticket, like Southwest.

Something to consider...

Thread transferred to JetBlue forum where there should be a better understanding of the redemption value of the points.

20K can get you 2 round trip tickets from NY-BOS. There are often fare sales that have that route going for 5000 points.

The thing I liked about TrueBlue is that I actually got to GET a free flight (recent BOS-LGB trip for my wife and I) and I have enough points that I'm on the verge of being able to go to Florida for free from simply assigning a lot of my monthly bills to my Amex card.

I got this card last year and liked it. It got me a free flight from JfK to ABQ over Labor Day weekend. I estimate that the offer is woth about $400 in base fare. Could be used for a ticket to the Carribean if you find the right deal. It's not a huge amount of points, but the min spend is low and it's a nice way to round out a churn.

Link is still active... just applied and approved , 2nd Amex card open , had canceled SPG in August.

Is the Amex Jet Blue card churnable? Any reason to keep it and pay the yearly fee if the miles don't expire now?

All Amex cards with the 1 year term on the app are churnable (so basically all Amex cards). It just has to have been canceled for a year, and then you can get apply again.

For your 2nd question, unless you're a loyal Jetblue flyer and love racking up Jetblue miles, there's no (serious) reason to keep it open too long. Cancel it and let the 1 year clock start ticking.

Guys

Does anybody have a business card link for 20k points too? Thinking of applying both personal & business with the 2-browser trick

Thx
