Update:

The offer mentioned below has expired and is no longer available.

JetBlue’s latest promotion allows you to purchase TrueBlue points and receive a 125% bonus, as long as you purchase by September 13, 2024.

Let’s take a look at the details of the promotion to see if it makes sense for you.

Offer Details

JetBlue is offering the opportunity to buy TrueBlue points with up to a 125% bonus through September 13, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. ET:

  • Purchase 3,000+ points and get a 125% bonus (1.43 cents per point)

You can purchase a maximum of 150,000 TrueBlue points per transaction, and members may not purchase more than a total of 200,000 points in a calendar year.

Should You Consider This Promotion?

Depending on the bonus, it rarely makes sense to purchase JetBlue points. That’s because JetBlue TrueBlue is a fixed-value rewards program, meaning the number of points you’ll need for a redemption is directly tied to the cash cost of the ticket.

In our experience, you’ll receive somewhere around 1.3 cents to 1.5 cents per point in value on your JetBlue redemptions. Given that, if you can purchase JetBlue points at 1.43 cents per point, and then redeem them for a higher value, you might be able to save yourself some money on your next ticket.

Additionally, If you’re very close to the number of points you need to make a specific redemption, and a small point purchase would put you over the edge, then purchasing points at these rates could provide solid value.

Remember that JetBlue is a 1:1 transfer partner of Chase Ultimate Rewards and Citi ThankYou Rewards, and a 1:0.8 transfer partner of Amex Membership Rewards. If you have points in any of these programs, you could easily top off your TrueBlue account without needing to buy points.

Hot Tip:

Here’s a look at some of the best ways to earn JetBlue TrueBlue points.

Final Thoughts

While this deal might not necessarily be a home run, it provides the opportunity to save yourself some money on your next JetBlue trip, depending on what redemption you have lined up. If you’re interested in the promotion, make sure you take advantage of it before it ends on September 13, 2024.
