You were right. Its not a card that I need a high limit on, its strictly for flights.
So in that case, its good and the rewards and points are worth the fee in my opinon. Being I only use this airline, and other family members do too. I'll book all there tickets and get the points lol.
Congratulations on getting the card.
For clarification, if you do not have a Jet Blue credit card, but are a Jet Blue FF Account holder, and you book Jet Blue flights on line, are you saying you get 3 JB points for that on line purchase?
And regarding this, no, one of the main advantages with a co-branded card is you can use it for regular spend when you need to round up points to reach some 10,000 or 25,000 threshhold when you are short miles or points from just using the brand. The 2 points per dollar on certain types of spend, you'll want to keep that in the back of your mind when it comes time to build more JB points.

When you have a true blue account at jetblue.com, you receive 3 points per dollar on flights with BLUE. With BLUE PLUS, its 4 points per dollar, with BLUE FLEX its 5 points per dollar.
So, I was told that you still get those points ON TOP of what you get for having the jetblue master card.
So for example, if you book a normal blue flight online, and use your JB card, you will receive either 6 points for the NON annual fee card, or 9 points per dollar on the annual fee card. That goes even higher if you book with plus or flex
Booking a jetblue getaway gives you 6 points per dollar booking online, on top of your 3 or 6 you get from the cards.
That is why you can rack up some serious points with this card
And yes, you are correct, when I go on vacation I am gunna put it all on this card and get the points ( of course I will pay it off in full because of the pretty bad APR I received )
Now this is all based on what I was told my the rep at barclays, jetblue, and by like one or two other websites that had reviews.
Trying to find this is in my paperwork somewhere. I figured you just got either the 3 or 6 points straight out.

Ok, I'm thoroughly confused now. Let me take a run at explaining what I think I see in the research:
1) As a member of True Blue, I can earn 3 points per dollar when I buy a Jet Blue ticket, regardless of where I buy it and regardless what CC I use to buy it. Baseline 3 points, right?
2) If I book this ticket on the Jet Blue site, I get an additional 3 points, regardless of how I pay for it, so 6 points total for booking through Jet Blue.
3) I'll leave out the variations on seat type. It makes my head hurt.
4) If I use the new no AF Jet Blue Barclays card, I will earn another 3 points when buying a Jet Blue flight. So if purchasing a JB flight through the JB website, this counts up 9 points by using the Barclays card, right?
5) If I use the new AF Barclays Jet Blue card, I will earn 6 points on top of the base, so if booking through the JB Website, I get 12 JB points on that purchase?
