Through the end of 2024, JetBlue TrueBlue and Mosaic members can earn tiles for perks and status by contributing to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). SAF is a biofuel that’s safe for use in existing aircraft and infrastructure and reduces lifecycle emissions by about 80% compared to traditional fuels. Since 2020, JetBlue has doubled SAF use year-over-year, via three producers at San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Soon, the airline will bring a steady supply of SAF to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK).

Through December 31, 2024, TrueBlue and Mosaic customers can earn 1 tile for every $100 spent toward SAF. They can also combine these contributions with other qualifying travel to reach their next tile.

Sara Bogdan, Managing Director, Sustainability at JetBlue, said: “As we enter our sixth year of flying with SAF, we are now making it even easier (and rewarding) for customers to join us in our efforts. Whether you’re celebrating a great year of travel, or planning ahead for next year, we’re inviting you to partner with us to help address the carbon emissions caused by flying through contributions to sustainable aviation fuel.”

Here’s how the program works (via JetBlue):

  • 89.69% of the Contributions will be allocated towards JetBlue for the purchase of SAF and/or blended SAF products.
  • A service and technology fee, equivalent to 10.31%, will be paid to Chooose. This fee is included in the total Contributions and does not contribute towards the purchase of SAF.
  • TrueBlue members can earn up to 10 tiles with SAF contributions (up to a limit of $1,000).
  • TrueBlue members can combine SAF spend with other qualifying JetBlue travel spend to reach their next tile.
  • Contributions are non-refundable.
  • Tiles earned will be administered by the end of January 2025.
  • Status and perks earned will apply until the end of 2025.

Personalized experiences beat loyalty points for most travelers, says survey
Today's travelers no longer seek transactional loyalty
Arizona Biltmore

A recent survey commissioned by Mews and conducted by Talker Research suggested a new era in personalized travel. The study polled 2,000 Americans ages 18+ who have traveled in the last 12 months, and found that nearly 68% of travelers now say they'll stay loyal to hotels that deliver standout, personalized experiences, leaving traditional, points-based rewards behind. The survey's findings suggest that today's luxury travelers embrace personalization, preferring tailored experiences over an outdated points-based reward system. This study highlights the changing needs of travelers who no longer seek transactional loyalty. Instead, today's travelers want genuine recognition.

The poll of 2,000 American travelers found that only 24% of Americans say hotel rewards are the most valuable (behind grocery store rewards, credit card points, gas rewards, and airline miles). Additionally, 82% of current hotel loyalty members cited frustrations with traditional programs, including points expiring too quickly (28%), blackout dates (24%), and difficulty earning meaningful rewards (23%). These challenges drive travelers, especially younger and affluent segments, to seek alternatives.

JetBlue is leaving this Florida hub
Miami, Florida

This past Saturday, JetBlue announced it will cease flying out of Miami International Airport (MIA). The decision was purely logical, as the airline had noted subpar financial results. The change shouldn’t be too disruptive, as JetBlue only flies once or twice daily between Miami and Boston. However, travelers still have all summer to jet between the two East Coast destinations, as the switch doesn’t take place until September 3.

JetBlue will focus more on Fort Lauderdale
