JetBlue and American Airlines Add More Reciprocal Benefits
JetBlue and American Airlines have announced new reciprocal benefits for their customers. AAdvantage and TrueBlue Mosaic members will be able to enjoy more perks when traveling on either airline. This is the latest round of added benefits made possible by the airlines’ Northeast Alliance (NEA).
JetBlue Mosaics and American AAdvantage status members are now eligible to enjoy an expanded list of perks that include:
- Space to Stretch Out
- JetBlue Mosaics are now eligible for complimentary Main Cabin Extra seating on all American-operated flights based on availability at time of check-in. Main Cabin Extra amenities include extra legroom, early boarding and dedicated overhead bin space.
- AAdvantage status members are now eligible for complimentary Even More® Space seating on all JetBlue-operated flights based on availability at time of check-in when checking in at JetBlue kiosks or on jetblue.com. This benefit will be available via the JetBlue app in the coming days. Even More Space amenities include up to 7 inches of additional legroom, early boarding, early access to overhead bin space and access to expedited security lanes at select airports.
- Convenience at the Kiosk
- JetBlue Mosaics can now enjoy the convenience of tagging up to two complimentary checked bags at American kiosks and dropping them at designated drop-off counters. This benefit will also be available for up to eight other customers traveling on the same reservation.
- Same-Day Confirmed Changes
- JetBlue Mosaics continue to benefit from complimentary same-day changes on American-operated flights.
- AAdvantage status members Platinum Pro and higher can now also enjoy same-day changes when traveling on JetBlue-operated flights.
These benefits are the latest round of improvements made possible by NEA, a partnership first launched in 2021. In the future, JetBlue TrueBlue customers will also be able to redeem points for flights operated by American. As announced last year, loyalty program members are eligible to earn points on either carrier. The accrual agreement covers American flights operating with the JetBlue code within the carriers’ Northeast Alliance, as well as on all other American flights operating anywhere in the world. At the same time, American’s AAdvantage members can accrue miles on all JetBlue flights within and beyond the Northeast.
In summer 2022, the NEA expects to offer nearly 500 daily departures from New York’s three major airports and 200 daily departures from Boston.
