JetBlue Premier Card Adds New Benefits + 100K Bonus

The JetBlue Premier card is now offering 100,000 points after spending $5,000 in 3 months. That’s up 20,000 points over the previous offer with the same spending requirement. The card has also added several new benefits. Cardmembers now receive a 25-Tile bonus each year, putting them halfway to Mosaic 1 status, along with a 15% rebate on TrueBlue award redemptions. The $300 travel credit has improved and can now be used on any purchase through TrueBlue Travel with no minimum requirement, a massive improvement over its previous limitations. Cardholders can also unlock companion passes with $15,000 and $75,000 in annual spend. These changes are now live and represent a meaningful upgrade for a card that previously offered limited value relative to its $499 annual fee. If you live on the East Coast and fly JetBlue even a few times per year, this is a card worth considering.

JetBlue Adds China Airlines as Redemption Partner

JetBlue has added China Airlines as a new partner, allowing TrueBlue points to be redeemed for flights on the airline. You won’t earn JetBlue points on China Airlines flights, however. Availability from North America is currently limited, with routes like New York to Taipei pricing around 39,000 points one-way in economy, which is a decent redemption. JetBlue Premier cardholders now receive a 15% rebate on award redemptions, including partner flights, which improves the value of these bookings.
