"As we continue to engage with our cardmembers, JetBlue is focused on evolving our co-branded credit card benefits in ways that are both meaningful and relevant to how they travel and spend their time," said Ed Pouthier, vice president of loyalty and personalization, JetBlue. "These Premier Card enhancements, from companion passes to new lifestyle partnerships to more generous travel rewards, build on our commitment to listen to customers and give them even more value with their card during travel and in everyday life."
"We're proud to keep raising the bar with JetBlue for Premier cardmembers," said Doug Villone, head of cards and partnerships at Barclays US Consumer Bank. "These enhancements add more ways to get value – through companion pass statement credits, TrueBlue Travel statement credits, and a points redemption bonus – while helping customers progress toward Mosaic status. It's another great example of our long-standing partnership with JetBlue and our shared focus on delivering premium experiences, both in the air and on the ground."
New & Expanded Benefits
The JetBlue Premier Card, which launched last year, now introduces additional and enhanced benefits designed to deliver more utility, accelerate earnings and increase redemption value:
- JetBlue Premier Companion Pass Statement Credits: Travel is better together. Cardmembers can earn a companion pass (up to $500 value) after spending $15,000 in a calendar year and unlock an additional companion pass (up to $1,500 value) after $75,000 in annual spend. Simply book and pay for your companion's trip on your reservation, apply the pass, and receive a statement credit after you both travel.
- 25-Tile Bonus: Get a head start on status. Cardmembers will receive a 25-tile bonus after the beginning of each calendar year, putting them halfway to Mosaic 1 and the premium perks that come with it.
- TrueBlue Travel™ Statement Credits: Make more of every trip, beyond the flight. Cardmembers can earn up to $300 in annual statement credits when using the card for hotels, car rentals, cruises and more with TrueBlue Travel.
- 15% Redemption Rebate: Make your points go further. Cardmembers will receive 15% redemption rebate of their TrueBlue® points back on award flight redemptions, whether flying JetBlue or its partner airlines.
Benefits Cardmembers Know & Love
Premier cardmembers will continue to enjoy the benefits that already define JetBlue's premium card, including enhanced airport experiences, global lounge access, a free first checked bag, anniversary bonus TrueBlue points and more.
Premier cardmembers with eligible fares also receive complimentary access for themselves and a guest to BlueHouse, JetBlue's signature lounge experience designed to feel like a home away from home. Now open at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) Terminal 5, BlueHouse reimagines the traditional lounge with a warm, residential-inspired design rooted in the energy of New York City. With distinct spaces to work, relax and lounge, the space blends the comfort of a thoughtfully designed city apartment with JetBlue's signature hospitality.
JetBlue will continue expanding BlueHouse with a second location opening this summer at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) Terminal C. BlueHouse Boston will reflect a similar residential approach, thoughtfully designed to capture the character of Boston, while bringing its elevated airport experience to one of JetBlue's most important focus cities with a strong base of loyal customers and Premier cardmembers.
Additional Benefits Available
Through a new relationship with ClassPass, JetBlue is offering ClassPass credits coming later this spring. Premier cardmembers can enroll to receive up to 14 monthly credits to use on fitness classes and wellness experiences at studios, spas, salons, gyms and more nationwide.
Card Benefits Designed with Blue in Mind
The JetBlue Premier Card has an annual fee of $499 (and $150 for each authorized user), unchanged with the introduction of these upcoming benefits. Together, these updates underscore JetBlue's ongoing investment in a co-branded credit card portfolio designed to meet the needs of all customers with a range of travel preferences and everyday lifestyles as they earn their way to Mosaic status.
Cardmembers will receive the new benefits, and have access to updated reward rules, upon launch later this spring.
