The Jetblue Credit Card!

Hi, just back, before I tell you all my secrets, I must say that this is for people who pay off their credit cards every month and do not carry a balance.

Just want to give you an update of my last year's travel plans.
2008

February - Florida FREE air with Southwest
March - Arizona FREE First Class ticket with USair
April - California 2 FREE First Class tickets with USair
May - Bahamas 3 FREE tickets with Jetblue & paid for the other 2
June - Florida paid $35 with Spirit
July - Orlando 2 FREE tickets with Southwest
September - Lake Tahoe 2 FREE First Class tickets with USair
October - Williamsburg Va, paid for the seats
November - Bahamas paid for the seat

As you can see I travel a lot. I can't afford to pay for all those flights but I can go if it is free.

Today we are going discuss the Jetblue American Express Card.

American Express also known as AMEX

If you eat out often at any kind of restaurants, even at well known eating establishments such as, Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, McDonald's, and others as well, then the best card to have is the Jetblue AMEX Card. Besides restaurants they give double points for theater tickets, sporting events, movies, and gym memberships.

So the only time our Jetblue card comes out of our pocket is at restaurants , movies, or Broadway show tickets.

Now let me explain how the Jetblue system works.
When you book your flights on Jetblue through the internet the value of the trip will be doubled. as an example a flight from NYC to Lax, Ca is 6 points one way so if you booked on line you will get 12 points for that segment.

The catch to Jetblue is that you need to get to 100 points within a year of your first travel date. So if you don't make it to 100 TrueBlue points you will lose them.

BUT the Jetblue American express will save those points. Every time you use your card all your points gets extended to that date plus one year.
here's an example:

I have 24 points from my flight in October 2006 so I would lose those points in October 2007. But with the AMEX card let's say I made a purchase September 2007 then the 24 points are now good until September 2008. So the one year to acquire 100 TrueBlue points is now NOT part of the equation. The next time you use the card is July of 2008 so everything is now extended to July 2009.

Using this card is a very easy way to get free flights. It adds up very fast.
If you are thinking about getting the card please e-mail before you apply for it and I will send you to a site to get the card. Jetblue is having a promotion for card holders to get referrals.

If you travel with a spouse or significant other you each have to have your own Jetblue American Express Card. (Otherwise the spouse will lose the TrueBlue points from travel.)There is a fee to have the card but it has paid for itself many times for us.
