easy trueBlue question
Hello -
I'm aware that trueBlue points expire after 1 year (which is one of B6's only major downfalls if you ask me), and after a trip to OAK that I'm taking in April, I will have 100 points. However, my first round of points expire this coming August.
My question is, and I can't find an answer on jetblue.com, in order to to take advantage of this free ticket I'm about to earn, do I have to book AND travel by August (when some of my points expire) or just book, or neither?
I welcome your enlightenment.

It expires one year after the award is issued. So let say you earned your 100th point on April 15, your award will expire April 15 of the following year, NOT the day you earn your first point. Remember, when you use the award, you have to pay for taxes related to the travel.
