Quick Thoughts

The JetBlue Plus offer was previously 50,000 points after $1,000 in spend.  This offer is significantly better, as it raises the bonus to 80,000 points after the same $1K in spend (and after paying the annual fee). This is the best offer we’ve seen in a while for the JetBlue Plus card; there was a 100,000 mile offer last year, but that required $6k in spend to reach the bonus, making this a more appealing offer in my opinion.

I know several folks who fly JetBlue often and spend quite a bit on this card in order to obtain Mosaic status. There is also a 5,000 point yearly anniversary bonus as well as a 10% rebate on reward redemptions and a free checked bag, so it can be worthwhile to keep the card for folks who use the airline frequently. For the rest of us, it will most likely be banished it to the sock drawer after making the initial $1,000 spend and then cancelling it after twelve months when the annual fee comes due.
