I asked this on the customer support line and confirmed that certs can be used on either roundtrip or one-way itineraries. You can also use it on just one half of your roundtrip itinerary -- i.e. you can use it on only the inbound and don't have to use it on the outbound on the same PNR too.

Has anyone seen any domestic MTM upgrades for 1 certificate or any transatlantic for 2 certs per segment?
I've been told that the pricing is dynamic which usually means that it's tied to the price of the ticket. Has anyone noticed a transition point from 2 to 3 for TATL or from 1 to 2 for domestic. Knowing that would be a proxy for not having the information before you buy the tickets.
Thanks in advance

For what it's worth, I found (and booked) a RT JFK-LHR trip in late February where each leg was 2 certs. (Plus tax on the LHR-JFK leg.) Effective price of the upgrade from Blue wound up being around $400 per cert. Also found a JFK-LAX flight in mid-April with a 1 cert. upgrade option, in which the effective price of the upgrade from Blue was a little higher, around $500.

Sorry. Yes, I meant the effective value of the MTM certificate. No out of pocket cost for the domestic upgrades.

From what I've encountered, I've booked a few blue fares where the corresponding mint fare was $799 and under. Those flights required only 1 certificate. I've briefly had a flight booked where mint was $1200+. Those required at least 3. So as long as the mint fare is low, it's possible the required certificate amount will drop but no guarantees it'll happen.

Its pretty aggravating system (and classic JetBlue IT) that you cant determine the number of required certificates until after you book and ticket a flight.
I spent yesterday booking and cancelling itineraries, as everything I tried came up with 2 certificates required on domestic itineraries.
