The JetBlue Plus Card is now offering a welcome bonus of 60,000 TrueBlue points after just $1K in purchases in the first 90 days. That’s a huge offer for just $1K spend. Based on our conservative Reasonable Redemption Value of 1.33c per point, that’s about $800 worth of airfare for $1K spend, and you may do slightly better depending on your redemptions. That’s a great deal for low spend.

Quick Thoughts
As noted at the top, the key here is that it’s a big return for very low spend. If you live in a city served by JetBlue and can find a halfway decent use for points, this could be a really nice signup bonus given the low bar of entry. While JetBlue doesn’t have the wide network of partner flights enjoyed by legacy carriers in airline alliances, you can reasonably expect to get 1.33c per point. According to Greg’s work, you’ll likely get more like 1.43c each, but we adjusted airline miles downward in May of 2019. If you do get closer to one and a half cents per point, you’re darn near even in terms of the value of the welcome bonus compared to required spend.
