Low-cost carrier JetBlue has announced that its TrueBlue loyalty members can now earn and redeem points on selected Cape Air-operated flights.
JetBlue’s customer loyalty benefits with US commuter airline Cape Air further expands a partnership that was first formed in 2007 – the very first airline codeshare agreement for JetBlue.
The expanded partnership allows for single-ticket booking, one-stop check-in and baggage transfer, enhancing the travel experience for both JetBlue and Cape Air customers.
Cape Air operates over 250 daily flights to 32 cities in the US and the Caribbean, complementing JetBlue’s growing leisure network in New England and Puerto Rico.
JetBlue says it plans to add 20% more seats in New England this winter, along with expanding services in Puerto Rico and introducing premium ‘Mint’ services on select routes.
Chris Buckner, JetBlue’s vice president of loyalty and partnerships, said: “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 programme.
“Whether travelling 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.”
Lisa Shivdasani, Cape Air’s senior vice president of airline partnerships and commercial, said: “For 17 years we have grown our partnership with a shared vision to connect and delight customers in the communities we serve.
“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.”
