JetBlue Business Credit Card from American Express Review

The JetBlue Business Credit Card from American Express is designed for those who travel frequently with JetBlue Airlines and would like to take advantage of the airline reward program.

Through the reward program, cardholders earn one Award Dollar for each dollar spent on the card. Two Award Dollars are earned for each dollar spent on JetBlue flights, gas, wireless phone charges, car rentals, and office supplies and equipment. It is important to understand that 200 Award Dollars are equal to one TrueBlue® point, and 100 TrueBlue® points are equal to one round-trip flight. Cardholders will earn 50 TrueBlue® points with the first purchase, which is worth 1/2 of a free flight. There is no limit to the amount of Award Dollars that can be earned, but TrueBlue® points expire one year after they are earned if there is no point earning or redemption activity, and TrueBlue® awards expire one year after they are issued.

In addition to the reward program, cardholders can expect common benefits offered by American Express, such as various emergency assistance services, purchase protection, extended warranty services, and travel accident insurance.

The annual fee of $40 is reasonable as compared to other airline reward cards. There is a 3.99% introductory rate for six months that applies to balance transfers, and the interest rate is above average for purchases and balance transfers once the introductory rate expires.

Therefore, those who can afford to pay in full each month after the introductory rate expires (to avoid finance charges) and plan to take advantage of the reward program will benefit most from what the JetBlue Business Credit Card from American Express has to offer.
