It's always great to see when ridesharing apps develop relationships with other travel providers. It's a natural connection, given that frequent travelers probably use ridesharing apps more than the average person. Probably my favorite ridesharing partnership is between Starwood and Uber. The partnership was launched in June 2015, though unfortunately it was devalued somewhat earlier…

You also get 30 Jet Blue points for taking Lyft rides, but only those to/from airports.
I wonder if you can participate in both programmes at the same time.

The site is already saying that due to high volume levels the link cannot be completed.

You mean Lyfts?

Gotta grind thru the $15 monthly Uber AMEX credits then switch over to Lyft. Nice.

I wonder how this works with the JetBlue promo (which only awards miles to/from the airport).

I already linked my TrueBlue account to Lyft and it let me link my SkyMiles account. Would be great to get both.

I second all those who are asking how it works with the JetBlue promo. I'd obviously love to have both, but if I'm forced to choose I want to make sure I'm getting the Skymiles promotion over JetBlue's

When I look at the Lyft partner site, it is showing both JetBlue and Delta as currently enrolled, so someone will have to take a ride and let us know what happens.

Will hopefully also get the 1,000 bonus miles from Delta for using a new partner. Pretty sure this qualifies for that, especially since even Points.com transfers qualify for it.

I'm assuming you can't earn both Starwood points and SkyMiles at the same time? It's one or the other, right?

I asked Lyft, Delta, and JetBlue on Twitter earlier today if promos could be combined. FWIW, only Delta responded and said you could only earn points for one airline. https://twitter.com/delta/status/864908215242326017

Will this count as a partner activity for the current Delta promo (1k bonus points per unique partner activity)?

FWIW I registered/linked my accounts on 5/18 and took a Lyft on 5/20. The Delta Skymiles posted today (5/23) -- pretty quick in my opinion. That being said, I received miles only for the Lyft ride itself, no 1k partner promo miles.

Uhhh Lucky, you either missed your coffee or there's a tech issue because this just republished your Lyft/Delta partnership blog from 2017 (without any updates on this new 10x promo)...
