JetBlue just dropped a once-in-a-generation promotion that has the points and miles community buzzing. As part of its 25th birthday celebration, JetBlue has launched the “25 for 25” promo, offering up to 350,000 bonus TrueBlue points and a staggering 25 years of Mosaic 1 elite status. Whether you’re a casual JetBlue flyer or a mileage-running maniac, this is a deal worth dissecting.
What Is JetBlue’s “25 for 25” Promo?
From June 25 through December 31, 2025, JetBlue TrueBlue members can earn major rewards based on the number of unique JetBlue destinations they fly to. Here’s how it breaks down:
- ✈️ Fly to 15 destinations – Earn 150,000 bonus points
- ✈️ Fly to 20 destinations – Earn 200,000 additional points (total 350,000)
- ✈️ Fly to 25 destinations – Earn 25 years of Mosaic 1 status
No registration is required. Just make sure your TrueBlue number is on the reservation before flying.
How Do You Qualify?
To earn each reward tier, you’ll need to fly JetBlue-operated flights (excluding Blue Basic) to unique destination airports. A few key points:
- Each airport counts once, even in cities with multiple airports (e.g., JFK, LGA, and EWR all count as separate destinations).
- Return flights to your home airport only count the first time.
- Connecting airports also count as unique destinations, even if you’re just passing through.
- Eligible fares include Blue, Blue Extra, Mint®, award flights (non-Blue Basic), JetBlue Vacations, and Cash + Points.
Why This Promo Is a Big Deal
Let’s talk value. JetBlue points are generally worth about 1.3 cents each, meaning:
- 150,000 points = ~$1,950 value
- 350,000 points = ~$4,550 value
That’s a massive return—especially if you can craft creative itineraries or mileage runs to hit those destination milestones cheaply.
And then there’s the Mosaic 1 status—25 years of elite benefits, just for flying to 25 unique airports. Even though it’s JetBlue’s entry-level elite tier, it includes:
- Two free checked bags (for you and companions)
- Free alcohol onboard (21+)
- Same-day flight changes (non-Blue Basic)
- Extra legroom and preferred seats (pending availability)
- Priority boarding, security, and check-in
- 3x points on JetBlue flights
- A complimentary Heathrow Express Business First upgrade
- Annual perks like IHG Platinum, 15K-point bonuses, and Mint Suite priority
Is It Worth Going for 25 Years of Mosaic?
Here’s the thing—25 years of Mosaic 1 sounds amazing on paper. But will JetBlue still be around in 25 years?
With recent financial struggles and route cuts, the airline’s long-term future is a bit murky. However, JetBlue still has valuable assets and, if acquired or merged (think: United or Alaska), those benefits could carry over. Historically, some airlines (like United) have honored lifetime status post-merger.
Still, you don’t earn any annual Tiles from this promo—so if you want to move up to higher elite tiers (Mosaic 2-4), you’ll need to start from scratch.
Planning Your Strategy
If you’re based in a JetBlue hub like New York, Boston, or Fort Lauderdale, this promo is especially appealing. With 113 destinations in JetBlue’s network and award flights counting, you can potentially string together inexpensive one-ways and short-haul awards to hit 15, 20, or even 25 airports by year’s end.
Use JetBlue’s route map and destination list to start planning. Consider mixing in:
- Round trips into different NYC or LA airports
- Short hops between Northeast cities
- Mileage runs with layovers that count as unique cities
And don’t forget: travel must be completed by December 31, 2025, and points/status post within 2–3 weeks of completion.
Final Thoughts
This is hands-down one of the most creative and lucrative promotions we’ve seen from a U.S. airline in years. If you already have JetBlue travel planned—or you’re looking for an excuse to travel more—it’s worth considering a path to at least 15 or 20 unique destinations.
350,000 bonus points is a fantastic return, and 25 years of elite status (even a basic one) is practically unheard of.
So… will you go for it?
