Save On JetBlue Flights With Amex Offers (Targeted)

The Amex Offers program sometimes offers savings or bonus points on flight purchases, which can represent a great deal. We’ve just seen a new offer introduced that can save you money on the cost of a JetBlue purchase — this could be a good opportunity.

Spend $200+ with JetBlue, save $50

A new targeted Amex Offers deal has just been rolled out, which offers a $50 statement credit when you spend $200+ on a JetBlue flight. This is valid for purchases through August 6, 2024.

That’s the equivalent of up to 25% back on a JetBlue flight (if spending exactly $200), which is awesome. There are some basic conditions to this offer that are worth being aware of:

• You need to spend $200, but it can be in multiple transactions
• You have to make your purchase directly with JetBlue, either via jetblue.com, the JetBlue mobile app, or JetBlue’s call center
• If you make a flight purchase, the flight must originate in the United States, and be charged in USD
• You need to be charged for your flight purchase by August 6, 2024, but there’s no need to actually travel by then
• The offer is valid for purchases with JetBlue and JetBlue Vacations, including inflight purchases, baggage, pets, cancelation and change fees, and business and group travel

Keep in mind that JetBlue no longer has change fees on everything except Blue Basic fares, so you could always book a $200+ ticket, and if your plans change, that balance would stay in your JetBlue Travel Bank.

This offer appears to be on the Amex Platinum

It would appear that this offer is specifically available on the personal version of The Platinum Card® from American Express (review), in celebration of the card’s 40th anniversary. That works out great, because the card offers 5x Membership Rewards points on airfare (up to $500,000 of flight purchases per calendar year, and then 1x). I value Membership Rewards points at 1.7 cents each, so to me that’s the equivalent of an 8.5% return on spending right there.

When you add up both the $50 statement credit and value of the 5x points, you’re potentially looking at getting ~34% back on $200 worth of JetBlue spending. I continue to be so impressed by how much value Amex Offers adds to Amex cards, as in many cases these offers alone more than justify the annual fees on cards.

Bottom line

There’s a new targeted Amex Offers deal that can save you $50 on a JetBlue purchase of $200 or more. This is an excellent deal, and when you factor in the statement credit and value of points, this can potentially get you quite a bit off a JetBlue purchase.

If you have any upcoming travel to plan, be sure to check your Amex account to see if you’re eligible for this offer. It seems like this offer is primarily available on the Amex Platinum Card.

Were you targeted for this offer, and if so, do you plan on taking advantage of it?
