What is JetBlue TrueBlue?

TrueBlue is JetBlue's unique frequent flyer program, designed with a customer-centric approach and emphasizing simplicity and flexibility when earning and redeeming points. Unlike traditional programs, TrueBlue awards points based on dollars spent rather than miles flown, allowing for a more transparent accumulation process. Points are earned for flights, with the airline, and with various partners, including hotels and car rentals, and can be redeemed for any seat on any JetBlue-operated flight without blackout dates. The program also features tiers such as Mosaic, which offers additional benefits including expedited security, early boarding, and waived change fees, enhancing its appeal to frequent flyers.

TrueBlue stands out for its no-expiration policy on points and the ability to pool points with family and friends, making it a highly flexible option for travelers. Its integration with Amazon purchases and partnerships with other airlines for point transferability further enriches its value proposition in the competitive landscape of airline loyalty programs.

What's new with TrueBlue in 2025?

JetBlue's TrueBlue program is undergoing several significant changes in 2025, affecting Mosaic members across all tiers. Here's an overview of what's new:

Introduction of JetBlue Lounges: JetBlue is set to open its first airport lounges, with an 8,000-square-foot space at New York's JFK Airport in late 2025, followed by an 11,000-square-foot lounge at Boston Logan Airport. Access will be complimentary for Mosaic 4 members, transatlantic Mint customers, and holders of a forthcoming premium JetBlue credit card. Day passes will also be available for purchase, subject to availability.
Changes to Blue Basic Fare Benefits: Effective March 1, 2025, Mosaic members traveling on Blue Basic fares will no longer be eligible for complimentary Even More Space seats, preferred seat selection, or same-day flight changes. This adjustment encourages members to book higher fare classes to fully utilize their elite benefits.
Enhanced Move to Mint Upgrades: Mosaic 4 members will have increased opportunities to earn Move to Mint upgrade certificates. After reaching 250 tiles, members will receive an additional two certificates for every subsequent 100 tiles earned, with no cap on the total number of certificates. This change allows frequent flyers greater access to JetBlue's premium Mint service.
Discontinuation of BLADE Airport Transfers: The partnership offering Mosaic 4 members complimentary BLADE helicopter transfers between Manhattan and JFK or Newark airports will end in 2025. Members with existing BLADE credits expiring in 2025 should transfer them to their BLADE accounts by December 31, 2024, to avoid forfeiture.

International flights, including Europe, can jump to 20,000-40,000 points for economy During peak times or for premium cabins (Mint, Business Class) expect redemption costs to approach the cash price.
