JetBlue and YOTEL have just announced an intriguing collaboration. While I’d say this is pretty niche, there’s definitely some value to be had if staying at a YOTEL property, though I wish the execution were a bit better.

'Now, unfortunately there are some major terms to be aware of when it comes to this collaboration:'
'TrueBlue points will be awarded within 30 days of an eligible stay'
I agree it is a term, but is it major? Doesn't really seem that unheard of for this sort of partnership...
Would be nice to see JetBlue offer YOTEL rooms to mint passengers at LHR / LGW as an arrival lounge alternative. Doubt this would happen given YOTEL‘s small size but would be nice. American used to do this with a hotel at Stansted airport.
Agree the access instead of the lounge would be a great offer. They could expand it to airport locations and members get the discount and points. Why not? The only reason not is if the hotel company's structure is different for those locations.
Agreed. I would also say that this restriction "Space available upgrades and late check-out are subject to availability" is pretty much universal to every hotel loyalty programme ever.
I stay at Yotel's quite a lot and like the brand.
Seems just about worth creating a JetBlue account to get the free snack.
Even though I'll never use the account, since I'm European.
Are any of those “Major terms” really “major”?
Agreed this isn’t groundbreaking, but I don’t get the negativity.
