The Jet Blue Travel Bank Overview [A 2022 Guide]

From this login screen, use the username and password provided to you via two separate emails sent when you initially received travel credits to access your account for the first time. Once you’re in, you’ll be able to see the balance and expiration date of each travel credit. Hold onto this login information for future use as this is how you will access your Travel Bank each time (if you don’t have a TrueBlue account).

If you have a TrueBlue account, the loyalty rewards program through JetBlue airlines, you can access your Travel Bank account through this. Just use your regular email and password combo to login and navigate to the Travel Bank section by clicking the dropdown menu next to your name on the dashboard and selecting “Travel Bank.”

Can I Transfer My JetBlue Travel Bank

Travel Bank accounts are non-transferable, but you may choose to use the credits in your Travel Bank to book flights for someone else. The name on a booking does not need to match the name on the Travel Bank account, but only the person for which travel credits were issued may book travel with said credits.

How Long do the Travel Credits Last

The deadline to use travel credits is typically 12 months after disbursal. They are valid for one year after the date they are issued, which is usually immediately upon cancellation, and you are able to see the expiration date for each credit through your Travel Bank account. As mentioned, credits will be put toward reservation costs in order of which ones are nearest their expiration dates.

Another nice thing to be aware of when it comes to the expiration date is that you do not need to actually travel before credits expire in order to travel on credit. As long as you book a reservation with credits that are still valid, you can fly at any time after the credits were set to expire. Something to be cautious about, however, is canceling flights booked with travel credit. This can be done, but your credits’ expiration dates will not reset—they will expire when they were originally set to expire.

COVID-19 Updates and Extensions

There are no current COVID-19 extensions for JetBlue Travel Bank credits. In the past, due to travel complications caused by COVID-19, JetBlue has extended the deadline for credits issued during certain time periods. We will update this section if any such extensions return due to the Omicron variant.

Final Thoughts

Overall, JetBlue’s Travel Bank is fairly user-friendly, but it has its limitations. The biggest of these is the fact that credits are issued per individual rather than per party, rendering them inconvenient when rebooking travel for more than one person. Otherwise, however, this Bank is straightforward to access and navigate and the travel credits are fairly typical.

If you’re turned off by the idea of Travel Bank of JetBlue’s travel credit program in general, try to avoid missing flights or canceling if at all possible and don’t choose credits over refunds or flights.
