part of me wants to get the business card…not sure if I can trust B6 anymore

especially if the merger goes through who knows how they’ll gut things

Where did you see that the business card offers priority (group A) boarding?

Is there really no update on redeeming JetBlue miles on AA? Got my folks to apply for JetBlue cards and now sitting on 600K miles ready to use them on AA. Is nobody else getting annoyed with this?

I thought AA themselves took so long to roll out B6 redemptions although that now seems like nothing.

Yikes. The first of many changes I am sure. I don't usually side with TPG but I think they're spot on when they said JB probably figured the news of the Paris flight would cover this up.

They also made it impossible to use travel credit for a points booking - at least online (edited as I realized I saw the answer to this when I looked last month)

This has been the case for a few months now (see the website continuously not functional thread). You can call in to book a ticket this way and then have to demand the phone booking fee be waived (or maybe you can try over chat? idk). I get to try this out later

That's for travel bank cash. I'm wondering if points still just go back to your true blue account without expiration or did they hack that benefit up too?

I agree, think it’s a fair program. I think one downfall will be the easy entry to tier 1 and how it opens up priority boarding.

I saw they renewed their partnership with FoundersCard a while back and see it as one of the benefit choices. Anyone know if there’s a way to renew that while the Mosaic benefits are in limbo? Mine expired and although they haven’t kicked me off anything yet, I actually find it a moderately nice benefit and would like to keep.

I just saw an IG post from 40 minutes ago that May 10th is the big day. Looks like I better start burning my points a little more quickly. The great devaluation is upon us!!!
