GoLong bonus and Houston
This is a little pedantic but that's what flyertalk is for, right? JetBlue offers a GoLong bonus, 10k bonus points if you fly 10 one-way trips of 1600 miles or longer. They helpfully have a page showing you which routes count, however that page is out of date as they still list Houston Hobby. They recently moved from Houston Hobby to Intercontinental. BOS-HOU is 1609 miles whereas BOS-IAH is 1597. Does anybody know if Boston - Houston flights still count toward the golong bonus? This could be a significant loss for someone routinely traveling between the two cities.

Wow... that would freakin suck if it wasn't eligible anymore. This could alienate the entire Houston base of Mosaics. As if moving to IAH wasn't enough of an excuse to move to United or Southwest!

This has been the issue with JFK-HOU for years. It comes in just under 1600 miles so no Go Long Bonus. I'll be curious to hear what they say but I can't imagine they'll make an exception.

Big plus for me if they have.
