Smart Recommendations

Best Time to Book

Book JetBlue award flights for travel to Florida from the Northeast between late January and early March, as this is typically when availability spikes and demand is lower, especially for routes like New York (JFK) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL).

Sweet Spot

You can fly from Boston to San Juan for 20,000 JetBlue TrueBlue points, which typically costs around $400 in cash.

Routing Trick

Book a JetBlue flight from New York (JFK) to San Juan (SJU) with a layover in Fort Lauderdale (FLL), allowing you to redeem 20,000 miles instead of the typical 25,000 miles for a direct flight.

Avoid These Fees

Avoid JetBlue Airways flights on routes to or from the Caribbean, as they often impose high fees such as a $150 change fee and up to $200 for certain cancellations, significantly diminishing the value of using miles.
