JetBlue has announced that members of its TrueBlue loyalty program can now earn and redeem TrueBlue points on select Cape Air-operated flights when booking travel on jetblue.com or through the JetBlue mobile app.
JetBlue’s customer loyalty benefits with Cape Air further expands a partnership that was first formed in 2007—the very first airline codeshare agreement for JetBlue. Cape Air, one of the largest commuter airlines in the U.S., currently serves 32 cities in the U.S. and the Caribbean and offers more than 250 daily flights as well as group charters. Over the years, the partnership between the two airlines has grown to deliver seamless connections between New York, Boston, and San Juan, Puerto Rico to destinations across the Northeast and the Caribbean all on one reservation.
“As our first airline partner, we couldn’t be more excited to expand our partnership with Cape Air to offer our customers the ability to earn and redeem through our TrueBlue loyalty program,” said Chris Buckner, JetBlue’s Vice President of Loyalty and Partnerships in a media announcement. “Whether traveling to one of our beloved focus cities like Boston, New York or San Juan, or connecting to world-class beach destinations in the Caribbean, we continue to provide customers with more ways to be rewarded for their loyalty and make the most of their travel experience.”
“For 17 years we have grown our partnership with a shared vision to connect and delight customers in the communities we serve,” said Lisa Shivdasani, Cape Air’s Senior VP of Airline Partnerships and Commercial. “With our expanded partnership, we are excited to offer even more value to those who live, work, and play in some of the most beautiful vacation destinations in the world.”
As part of this partnership, planners can conveniently shop for eligible flights operated by Cape Air in the Northeast and Caribbean, redeem TrueBlue points for these itineraries and earn TrueBlue points by adding TrueBlue numbers directly at jetblue.com or the JetBlue mobile app. Both JetBlue and Cape Air customers purchasing a codeshare itinerary continue to enjoy benefits from having a single ticket that includes flights operated by both carriers, as well as added convenience on their day of travel like one-stop check-in and baggage transfer.
As a result of the partnership JetBlue will add 20 percent more seats in New England this winter and add Mint flying, the airline’s premium travel offering, on more routes. Over the coming months, JetBlue also will add flights not just at Boston Logan but also in Hartford and Providence.
In addition, this winter JetBlue will average over 40 daily departures and serve up to 18 destinations from San Juan, Aguadilla and Ponce. Cape Air’s service, which offers six additional destinations beyond San Juan including Culebra, Mayaguez and Vieques, Puerto Rico, and Tortola/Beef Island, British Virgin Islands, complements JetBlue’s investments to increase connectivity to and from Puerto Rico, including adding more destinations within Latin America, the Caribbean and in the U.S. East Coast.
