JetBlue Travel Credits
Travel Credit 101
Your JetBlue travel credit account is an online account (or bank) where you store and manage JetBlue travel credits. Think of it like a payment wallet you can use on jetblue.com or the JetBlue app.
If your email address isn’t linked to an existing account, a JetBlue account is automatically created the first time you’re issued a travel credit. You’ll receive a welcome email from no-reply@accounts.jetblue.com with a link to create your password. Use that link to finish setting up your account and access your travel credit.
The create password link expires after 30 days. If you haven’t received or can’t find the email, you can reset your password.
If you’re a TrueBlue member, your JetBlue travel credit should be linked to your TrueBlue account.
No matter which type of account you have,
- You’ll access your travel credit in the same place.
- Simply sign in to your account, select your initials or picture in the top right corner, and your total travel credit will be displayed under your name.
- If you would like to review your travel credit statement, select ‘See Travel Credit Statement’ from the dropdown menu.
- You’ll need to sign in with your email address and password each time you want to view or redeem your JetBlue travel credit.

How to link travel credits
Locate and link travel credits
To assist you quickly, please have answers to the following common questions.
- Was the travel credit issued in your name?
- Did you receive multiple emails about your travel credits, but the credits don’t appear in your account?
- If you have used multiple email addresses, your travel credit may be associated with a different account.
- Does your email address match your TrueBlue email address?
- To verify if they match, try logging into TrueBlue.
For travel credits issued in your name, we’ll need to locate the JetBlue travel credit account(s) and possibly link them to your TrueBlue account.
If a JetBlue travel credit account was created under another customer’s name, it cannot be linked to your TrueBlue account. However, you can still access the credit account and use the travel credits if you have the account’s unique sign in details.

Sign in with the email address where you received your travel credit welcome email. You'll find a link in that email to create your password. If you've forgotten your password, reset your password.
If you've used multiple email addresses with JetBlue, your travel credit may be linked to a different account. Check the inbox of the email used for the reservation where the credit was issued. If it's been more than 30 days since you received the welcome email, you'll need to reset your password.- If you were traveling alone, sign in to your JetBlue travel credit account to see the credit.
- If you were traveling with others, check the account of the primary traveler on the reservation.
- If you received an email stating you have a JetBlue travel credit but can’t locate the credit, your travel credit account and your TrueBlue account might not be linked. You can book without both accounts being linked. To do this, do not sign in to your TrueBlue account. Instead, sign in to your JetBlue account on the payment screen.
- If you want your JetBlue account linked to your TrueBlue account, contact us.

Credit expirations and open tickets
- No. Travel credits must be applied toward a new or existing booking by the expiration date, but you do not need to complete travel by that time.
- For new reservations, use our Best Fare Finder tool to see our full schedule of flights up to 331 days out from the current date.
- Credits are valid until 11:59pm Central Time on the date of expiration. Sign in to your JetBlue travel account and view the statement page to see each credit's expiration date.
- When using a travel credit, credits with the closest expiration date will be deducted first from your account.
If you cancel a flight that was originally purchased using a JetBlue travel credit, the travel credit keeps its original expiration date when it is returned to your JetBlue travel credit account. If a credit has already expired when the ticket is cancelled, it is not redeposited into your account.
Since travel credit expiration dates may differ, it's always best to sign in to your travel credit account and view the statement page to see each credit's exact expiration date.
- Travel credits/expiration dates cannot be extended.
- Flights need to be booked by the expiration date or applied to an existing reservation by the expiration date.
