JetBlue Adds Points Redemption to Japan Airlines Partnership
JetBlue today announced the expansion of its partnership with Japan Airlines to include TrueBlue point redemptions. TrueBlue members can now use their points to book qualifying Japan Airlines-operated flights directly on jetblue.com.
TrueBlue points can already be used to book Hawaiian Airlines, Icelandair, Qatar Airways, and TAP Air Portugal. And now for the first time JetBlue’s TrueBlue members can redeem points for travel with an airline partner in East Asia.
“We’re excited to expand the TrueBlue experience by growing our network of trusted airline partners, giving our members even more ways to redeem points,” said Edward Pouthier, vice president of loyalty and personalization, JetBlue. “With Japan Airlines redemption options, we’re opening the door to more destinations for our customers to travel where they want, how they want.”
With access to Japan Airlines’ renowned service and premium cabins, TrueBlue members can now explore a range of destinations across Japan and East Asia—including Tokyo, Osaka, Okinawa, and Hokkaido—using their points.
AwardWallet reported earlier this morning about the cost of these flights, and there are some good deals to be found. Los Angeles to Osaka for example, will cost you 64,000 points one-way in business class. London to Tokyo in business class is priced at 79,900. From the East Coast you can fly economy New York-Tokyo for 39,900 points one-way.
The partnership will also allow JAL Mileage Bank members to redeem their miles for select flights across JetBlue’s network, including those to Latin America, the Caribbean, Canada, and cities along the U.S. East Coast.
