I wanted to make sure the plan would work before jumping on the offer.
Of course it would work, that's the whole point of this perk!

what did everyone do with their amex converted barclay cards? was anyone able to sign up for a jb card as well? I want the 60,000 point signup offer but it seems like the amex-converted card will make it harder for me to get the bonus. i also got the aviator 60,000 two months ago

I apologize if this question has already been answered, but I have not been able to find the answer. I just applied for the 60k offer and was instantly approved. I have an upcoming JetBlue flight in two weeks that I redeemed TrueBlue points for. I paid for the taxes with a different card since I did not have this one at the time. The policy says that I must pay for the flight with the JetBlue Plus card in order to get the free checked bags.

Is this policy enforced, do you actually have to pay with the card?

Does anyone know if I will be able to have the free checked bags on this upcoming flight?

A huge THANKS to this flyertalk community that helps me research and learn new travel tips. After looking at this post, I found the following post from the pointsguy.com :

Since the card only needs to be “open at the time of redemption” rather than when you take the trip, I will have earned a total of 8,460 points back in my first year, a savings of $101.52.

What makes this benefit even better is that it doesn’t matter who is actually flying; anytime points are redeemed out of the TrueBlue account of the primary cardholder, the bonus will apply

I have a similar situation, except my flight is not until next March, and I have not applied for the JB card yet. At the time I booked my flight, I called JB to ask about the situation, since there are two valuable benefits associated with the card: 1) free checked bag, and 2) 10% points rebate. The agent told me that I could get the benefits by calling JB to change my payment to the JB card.

Earlier this year, I got the plus card about a month before I had to fly to SFO. I wound up getting the free checked bag, even though I had booked and paid for my flight with my Amex carryover (which had no free checked bags).

You could always contact customer service about it.

Bonus points when qualifying for Mosaic through CC spend

Any recent experiences with getting the 15K bonus points? My account updated overnight to show that I have qualified through 2018, but no bonus points posted.

Humm.. I have a credit score of 825 and own both Amex Platinum and Chase CSR.
Somehow when I applied online yesterday, it did not give me an instant approval.

Is there a reconsideration line I can call, or do I just wait?

15k points from 50k spend? edit, nice! was it on the plus or on the biz?

Also, has anyone reached the 50k spend from a mix of spend from the plus card and biz card (like 25k each)? Would that work? Looking to knock that out come january and it would really speed things up.
