What’s New With JetBlue in 2025?

  • Introduction of JetBlue Lounges: JetBlue is set to open its first airport lounges, an 8,000-square-foot space at New York’s JFK Airport in late 2025 and 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

More Things To Keep In Mind With TrueBlue

Using TrueBlue points for JetBlue flights is straightforward. Here are some tips to get more value out of your points:

  1. Leverage Dynamic Pricing: TrueBlue awards often mirror JetBlue’s cash fares. Watch for fare sales or promotions—you’ll frequently see lower point requirements during sale periods.
  2. Look Out for Mint Deals: TrueBlue points can unlock discounted Mint seats during flash sales. Monitoring these can net you a premium travel experience at a fraction of the usual points cost.
  3. Combine Points & Cash: JetBlue allows you to use a mix of cash and points if you’re short on points. This can help you book flights sooner rather than waiting to accrue more points.
  4. Stay Flexible: Because pricing is dynamic, shifting your travel date by a day or two could drastically lower your points requirement.
  5. Check Partner Options: JetBlue has limited partner redemption opportunities (e.g., Hawaiian Airlines). Availability and pricing vary, so compare to ensure you’re getting a good deal.
