Good morning everyone, happy Thursday! I logged into my JetBlue account last night and saw a huge increase to my JetBlue TrueBlue points balance. After looking at my account activity, I saw the 50,000 bonus JetBlue TrueBlue points, thanks to the JetBlue Points Match promo that ran a few weeks ago.
A few weeks ago, I status matched from Virgin America Gold to JetBlue Mosaic, so I received a few extra JetBlue TrueBlue points after taking my roundtrip SFO-LAS JetBlue flight. My new JetBlue account balance is 51,818, which is worth roughly ~$777 in JetBlue flights (1.5 CPP valuation). Anyone have any good redemption options for 50,000+ JetBlue TrueBlue points?
In case you were wondering, here is a timeline of events. I sent an email to JetBlue with my Virgin America account balance on June 25.
I received a response from JetBlue on June 27.
I immediately booked my roundtrip JetBlue flight after receiving the email on June 27. I found a good deal on a SFO-LAS JetBlue flight on July 16.
On July 16, I did 2 meetups at the SFO Centurion Lounge and LAS Centurion Lounge with a few friends as we completed the JetBlue roundtrip flight requirement.
On July 20, the base points and bonus JetBlue TrueBlue points posted to my JetBlue account. I am very surprised that the bonus JetBlue TrueBlue points posted much faster than the 4-6 weeks stated in the confirmation email from JetBlue. If you completed your roundtrip JetBlue flight by July 16, you should have received your bonus JetBlue TrueBlue points.
If you have any questions about the JetBlue points match promo, please leave a comment below. Have a great day everyone!
Similar story here. Sent registration email 6/25, albeit in the evening. Got confirmed 6/29. Immediately booked a 7/16 round trip. Got credited for trip, and match, yesterday 7/20 evening.
Awesome, thank you for sharing your data point. I hope you enjoyed your mini vacation / mileage run on JetBlue. What do you plan to do with your JetBlue bonus miles?
