A Deal for You if You Belong to JetBlue's TrueBlue

If you're a member of its TrueBlue, JetBlue's frequent flyer program, and if you register at http://www.jetblue.com/fifty, book roundtrip ticket before June 1 for itineraries commencing before June 15, you'll get a $50 voucher good toward roundtrip or one-way flights between September 5 and October 31. Up to four vouchers can be earned, so while those conditions won't be suitable for everyone, if you are flying soon and again in late summer or early fall, the discount can be significant.

JetBlue, though highly rated on many passenger surveys, has hit some turbulent air lately. Protracted and lingering flight delays and cancellations last February and the more recent resignation of the founding president have tarnished JetBlue's glowing image. Here's a way the airline is trying to polish it up again.

JeBlue currently serves more than 40 cities in the US and the Caribbean. Commencing on May 24 will be daily nonstops between New York's John F. Kennedy Airport (JFK) and Nantucket. MA (ACK), and Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (SDQ), and between Orlando (MCO) and Ponce, Puerto Rico (PSE). Those new routes begin before this promotion ends. In late June, JetBlue inaugurates daily nonstops between Boston (BOS) and San Diego (SAN), and weekly flights between Boston (BOS) and Aruba (AUA). A month after that, daily service begins between Salt Lake City (SLC) and both San Diego and San Francisco (SFO). You'll be able to redeem your vouchers on those routes. That JFK-ACK route might be seasonal (I don't know), but all others should be on the timetable when it's time to cash in those vouchers.
