JetBlue offers 3x miles on each $1 spent on Amazon through their shopping portal. On April 1, 2017, they added an exclusion on earning miles for the purchases of Amazon gift cards. Around July 11, that exclusion was no longer showing.
The exclusion is now showing again as before.Â
It’s unclear why the exclusion was removed for a couple of weeks. We also don’t know exactly when it came back (the last Way Back entry is July 15), but I do recall checking once, maybe a week ago, and it was not showing any gift card exclusion. The exclusion probably came back within the past day or so.
It remains to be seen how JetBlue will deal with this. They should award miles for Amazon gift cards purchased during those couple of weeks that the exclusion was not there. We’ll see. It usually takes about a month for miles to show – let us know in mid-August whether your gift card purchases earned miles or not.
