JetBlue TrueBlue Now Lets You Book Condor Flights With Points

(UNITED STATES) JetBlue TrueBlue members can now use points to book Condor flights, including transatlantic business class awards starting at 54,000 points one-way, after the airlines expanded their partnership effective August 26, 2025. Bookings are live on JetBlue’s website and mobile app, cover economy, premium economy, and business cabins, and carry no carrier-imposed surcharges, a rarity on routes between the United States and Europe.

Condor’s U.S. and Canadian gateways now plug JetBlue customers into more than 70 European destinations via Frankfurt, broadening access well beyond JetBlue’s own map. The list of North American gateways feeding Frankfurt includes New York–JFK, Boston, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Las Vegas, Portland, Anchorage, Toronto, Vancouver, and Calgary, as published by Condor today.

While JetBlue and Condor have cooperated since 2015 through interline connections, this marks the first time TrueBlue points can be redeemed on Condor flights and a major expansion of the partnership. It also fills a practical gap for U.S. travelers who want one-way awards to Europe without the extra cash that many programs add as fuel or carrier fees.

JetBlue lists entry-level award rates that are hard to match: 54,000 points one-way for East Coast–Europe business class and 19,000 points each way in economy, with pricing dynamic by route and date. Importantly, no carrier-imposed surcharges apply; members pay only standard taxes and fees collected at ticketing.

How to book and earn with TrueBlue on Condor

1. Start at jetblue.com or in the JetBlue app, toggle “Use TrueBlue points,” and enter your origin and destination. Condor flights appear alongside JetBlue options, with cabin type clearly labeled.
2. Select your dates and cabin. Award pricing is dynamic, but current floor levels are 19,000 points in economy and 54,000 points in business class one-way on many East Coast–Europe routes.
3. Confirm there are no added fuel or carrier surcharges. You’ll pay only government taxes and standard fees at checkout.
4. Add your JetBlue TrueBlue number to earn points on paid Condor fares—either during booking or later by managing the reservation.
5. Eligible awards cover business, premium economy, and economy on Condor-operated flights, including onward connections across Europe via Frankfurt.

If booking a cash ticket on Condor.com, still add your TrueBlue number to earn credit in the JetBlue program.

Members report that award space is broad across many dates, and industry watchers say Condor often releases more premium seats than larger European brands. That improves the chances of finding two or more business class seats on the same flight, even during school holidays.

“Expanding our loyalty partnerships is a key part of how we deliver greater value to our customers… TrueBlue members now have more ways to turn their loyalty into meaningful travel experiences,” said Edward Pouthier, JetBlue’s Vice President of Loyalty and Personalization.

David Carlisle, Director Network Planning & Partnerships at Condor, called the move “meaningful value for our guests by offering another attractive frequent flyer option — one that complements our existing partnerships and is especially relevant for transatlantic travelers.”

Why this matters

• The partnership extends JetBlue reach to 70+ European destinations via Condor’s Frankfurt hub.
• No carrier surcharges means lower out-of-pocket costs compared with many transatlantic award options.
• Entry-level awards at 54,000 points (business) and 19,000 points (economy) create clear targets for planning and points transfers.
• Condor’s long-haul fleet refresh (including the A330‑900neo with an updated business cabin) adds comfort to the value equation.

Analysts note that many U.S. cardholders can move points into JetBlue TrueBlue from major credit card programs including Chase, American Express, and Capital One, making these awards accessible to travelers who don’t regularly fly JetBlue.

Useful scenarios and practical benefits

• Families managing international moves, students heading abroad, or workers traveling for visa appointments can reduce out-of-pocket costs with one-way awards.
• Booking one-way trips without surcharges helps when plans are staggered (e.g., leaving and returning from different countries).
• Condor’s generous premium inventory often increases the odds of finding two or more business class seats on the same flight—helpful for families wanting lie-flat rest on overnight legs.

Routing, connections, and baggage

Because Condor funnels most long-haul traffic through Frankfurt, itineraries booked with JetBlue TrueBlue points can include same-day connections to dozens of cities across Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and beyond on a single ticket. That keeps checked bags moving through to the final stop and simplifies irregular operations compared with separate tickets.

Current North American gateways feeding Frankfurt on Condor include:
– New York (JFK) and Boston (BOS) on the East Coast
– Miami (MIA)
– Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), and Seattle (SEA)
– Las Vegas (LAS), Portland (PDX), and Anchorage (ANC)
– Toronto (YYZ), Vancouver (YVR), and Calgary (YYC)

Multi-city and longer itineraries may price above the floor levels because of distance and demand. Still, the absence of surcharges holds the total cost down compared with programs that add hundreds of dollars in extra fees to similar awards.

Booking tips and tricks

• Search several months ahead and keep flexible dates, especially for summer travel. Pricing is dynamic and can shift day-to-day.
• Check multiple days in a week to surface lower rates.
• For families, use points pooling to combine balances under a pool leader and top off for business class at 54,000 points.
• Card transfers into JetBlue are typically irreversible; search award space before moving points and transfer only what you need.
• Save screenshots or emails that show quoted points and taxes at the time of booking.
• Confirm refund and change rules for awards before finalizing the reservation.
• Keep confirmation numbers for both airlines; codes sometimes differ between systems.

Earn rules and paid fares

TrueBlue members can earn points on paid Condor flights by adding their TrueBlue number at purchase—either on JetBlue’s site or Condor’s. Credit is based on fare class and distance flown, per the airlines’ program rules.

Important reminders and resources

• Before booking, confirm entry and visa rules for your destination using official sources such as the U.S. Department of State’s country pages; Germany’s page is a useful starting point for Frankfurt connections at travel.state.gov.
• JetBlue’s TrueBlue support line: 1-800-JETBLUE (1-800-538-2583).
• Condor’s U.S. customer service: 1-866-960-7915.
• Booking and program details: jetblue.com and condor.com.

Market impact and outlook

Industry observers expect the tie-up to pressure competing programs to sharpen transatlantic pricing. There is no announced end date for these awards, and both airlines indicated the partnership may continue to grow.

This launch follows JetBlue’s recent loyalty tie-ups with carriers such as Icelandair, Etihad, and Qatar Airways, reflecting a strategy to extend reach through partners while its own European schedule remains modest.

For many U.S.-based members, Condor flights will be the simplest path to Europe using JetBlue TrueBlue points. With 54,000 points as the headline entry point for East Coast business class, lie-flat seats become a realistic redemption for people who collect TrueBlue points through flying or credit card transfers.

Final takeaway

Members ready to try the new option can start a search today, compare cash and points prices, and decide which mix makes sense for their budget. With Condor flights now searchable in the JetBlue system, the process is quick and the results are easy to compare.

For now, the message is simple: check JetBlue, search Condor flights with points, and compare cabins. If the date aligns and pricing sits near the floor, locking in early can make a complex trip feel manageable.
