Our Verdict

Shame that it doesn’t apply to existing bookings and your won’t get your points back until after the promo period is over (so no using points you received from the rebate to get the rebate again). Barclaycard JetBlue Plus also offers 10% back in points so combining these should get you 25% back in points. Keep in mind that the cost of JetBlue award flights is tied to the dollar cost of the flight (you can read about the valuation of points here). We will post any JetBlue sales we come across during this promotional period so people can make the most from it.
