Seats.aero Adds Support for JetBlue ‘Move to Mint’

Seats.aero is a rewards tool that can help you search dozens of award programs at once, showing you the cheapest prices for using points and miles to get from where you are to where you want to go. Additionally, you can compare multiple airports, such as flying from the “East Coast” to “major airports in Europe” across numerous dates simultaneously, providing a handy way to shop for those with flexibility in their travels.

Seats.aero also has other useful tools, like finding the best deals in a particular program — like American Airlines AAdvantage or United Airlines MileagePlus — or hunting for elusive first class awards in ANA first class or Qatar Airways Qsuites.

Now, Seats.aero can help you use Move to Mint awards with JetBlue TrueBlue. Mosaic elite members will appreciate this flexibility, helping them maximize these awards by easily sorting the results. Options include filtering by origin and destination, airport, flight date, how many certificates are needed, and how recently the award space was found.
