Worth considering if you already want this type of card.
- Full annual fee:
- $99, charged in full — credits count only if you use them
- Major trade-offs:
- JetBlue has limited route network vs. major carriers Points only redeemable through JetBlue (no airline partners)
- Against a no-fee alternative:
- We'd choose the $0-fee option. Citi Double Cash nets as much as JetBlue Plus Card on this spending, with no fee to earn back. (The sample household; run your own numbers.)

Detailed methodology
Net annual value = rewards on a spending profile at typical point value − the full annual fee; credits count only if you tell us you use them; a welcome offer counts once, in year one, only where the profile meets its requirement. Same math as Find a Card. Methodology v2026.09.4.
