The JetBlue Premier Card is JetBlue and Barclays' contribution to the growing premium airline cobranded card market. However, it falls short of the mark with a steep annual fee, mediocre perks and disappointing earning rates. Card rating*: ⭐⭐½
Typically, I can see the purpose of applying for a carrier's premium credit card if you're an airline loyalist or frequent traveler. However, I believe that everyone but die-hard JetBlue fans should seriously question whether the JetBlue Premier is really the right product for them. The card recently underwent a refresh, but the perks it added don't significantly move the needle for me.
While it offers good perks for frequent JetBlue flyers, getting outsize value out of its $499 annual fee every year may prove too challenging to be worth it.
