Update, 1/9: A week after this deal and after several have already traveled with changed tickets, it seems safe to say that the free changes made with this offer will be honored!

Congrats to everyone who got to make free changes while it lasted!


Originally posted on 1/2 at 6:59pm:

Similar to what Southwest used to offer, JetBlue is currently offering free changes with no difference in fare for any travel booked in January!

Officially they are waiving change fees for travel in January, but the website is also currently waiving the difference in fare on most routes. I wouldn’t contact JetBlue about this as that’s not officially being offered and will probably only apply online via the instructions below.

For example I was able to book a flight from Fort Lauderdale to Cleveland in January for $32.60:

 

And then JetBlue.com allowed changes to other Fort Lauderdale to Cleveland dates, even for $594 flights, at no extra charge:

 

 

You can use the JetBlue Best Fare Finder to find cheap dates to fly.

Don’t forget that AMEX airline fee credit typically covers JetBlue tickets that are less than $100. You can also deposit basic or regular economy JetBlue tickets into TravelBank funds right after purchase that are useable for anyone.

Once you have a flight booked for travel on any date in January, you can change to any other later date with no change fee or difference in fare.

  • You can’t change the route, you can only change the dates.
  • If you book travel in Basic economy, the rebooked flight will need to be in basic economy.
  • If you book travel in regular economy, the rebooked flight will need to be in regular economy.
  • If you book travel in MINT, the rebooked flight will need to be in MINT.

It doesn’t appear that you can change dates on award bookings online.

This will not work for codeshare flights on airlines like American.

For example, I tested booking $74 regular economy tickets from Boston to Cleveland in January:

 

And there was no fee to changing to $274 regular economy tickets from Boston to Cleveland in August.

 

 

Note that not all routes will work. For example in my testing I noticed that Newark to Fort Lauderdale, JFK to Fort Lauderdale, Newark to San Diego, and Miami to JFK did not work.

However sometimes the reverse route did work, as JFK to Miami and Fort Lauderdale to JFK worked!

Update: It appears that some routes will work on select dates or flight numbers. If your flight doesn’t have free changes, try another date and flight number in January.

I’d suggest booking tickets as one-ways as some routes only work in one direction. (In general I always suggest booking tickets as one-ways for maximum flexibility with changes and cancellations).

The good news is that as long as you book a flight that is more than 7 days from now, you can get a full refund within 24 hours of your purchase, even on basic economy. That means you can use trial and error to see what works for you. Just click on cancel itinerary if it doesn’t work for your route and you can request a refund.

The pattern I noticed is that when you click on Manage bookings on routes that do work, it will show this:

While on routes that don’t work, it shows this:

I also noticed that on routes where it doesn’t give free changes, it gives this warning when trying to change dates:

 

Finally, when you try changing on a route that doesn’t work it will state a total to pay instead of showing $0 like it does on working routes:

 

To make a change, just scroll to the bottom of your itinerary and you should see the option to “change itinerary:”

 

You can then change dates to turn a $48 JFK to Miami ticket in January into $560 JFK-Miami ticket before Pesach:

 

Or a $48 Fort Lauderdale to JFK in January into $598 Fort Lauderdale-JFK ticket after Pesach:

 

Or a $68 JFK to Orlando in January into $539 Fort Lauderdale-JFK ticket before Pesach:

 

Or a $94 JFK to LA ticket in January into $448 JFK-LA ticket before Pesach:

 

I wouldn’t expect this free change policy to last for long, so enjoy it while it lasts and try avoiding contacting JetBlue for help.

Don’t book any other non-refundable accommodation for your trip for a few days, while we wait and see if JetBlue will honor these tickets.

Post which routes work or don’t work for you and where you’ll fly!

    Would this work for point bookings?

    • Dan

      It doesn’t appear that you can change dates on award bookings online.

      • Jonathan Nissanoff

        Didnt work from LAX to CABO 🙁

    • Dan

      Just tried the outbound JFK-LHR and it did not work.
      Did not test the return, so comment if you do.

      • Yandmk

        I tested Gatwick to JFK RT and LHR to JFK RT and none of them worked 🙁

  2. Yed

    How about the AA codeshare JFKTLV route?

    • Dan

      No, it won’t work for codeshare flights.

  3. AG

    Please use this comment section to tell us which routes work which don’t thank you. @dan it’ll be helpful to pin a wiki based on the comments thank you again

    • Dan

      You can start a DDF thread and Wiki if you’d like and put the link here.

  4. chaya

    just saved 150 on a previous booked flight for this week !! per passenger thanks

  5. dave

    do the tickets need to be booked on B6 or can they be booked on other sites and then changed on B6

    • Yochai

      Worked for me when I booked through chase.
      JAX-EWR didn’t work, JAX-LAX worked.

      • Yochai

        Needed JAX-EWR, but wasn’t working. JAX-JFK didn’t either, finally JAX-LGA worked and was able to change to EWR.
        It appears all NY area airports are changeable as long as you get the right airport to change FROM.

    • CB

      Sorry, it does work. I was doing mistakenly

  6. Dan_and_jj_fan

    Just saved $$$$$$$$$ to Caribbean during February school vacation week. Bought for $270 each, rebooked for $1427 value !!! x 4 tickets. thank you Dan and JJ!

  7. DanM

    I tried on Punta Cana to NYC with a Blue Basic fare. It did not work. Do you think it would work with a Blue fare?

    • Dan_and_jj_fan

      We did Blue Basic and it worked.

      • DanM

        Turns out I made a mistake! I didn’t realize the originally booked flight had to depart in January. I redid it and it worked! Thanks Dan!

  8. Moes

    When do we know if it will be honored?

    • Dan

      If you don’t hear anything within ~3 days, you can assume it will be honored.

      • Yoni

        Issue is that by then you can’t cancel if they don’t honor the change. You’ll be “stuck” with random January flights if you’re intention was to only go pesach…

        • Dan

          No, they would have to offer a refund if they won’t honor it.

  9. Cammie

    SFO to Las Vegas February 8-16 does not work.

    • Dan

      I’d suggest doing this as 2 one-ways as some routes only work in one direction.

  10. Audrey

    Does it have to be at the same time? It looks like yours was.

  11. Rafael

    Are tickets to Tel Aviv working?

    • Dan

      No, it doesn’t work for partner flights.

  12. dave

    plus it seems that on partner such as AA this whole this doesn’t work

  13. LM

    It does not work for Fort Lauderdale to JFK, or at least not for the flight in January that I booked. Can you advise which January flight you booked that you saw this deal working?

    • Dan

      Hmm. I wonder if the flights that work are far more granular than I assumed.
      It may indeed vary by the exact date and flight number, with some working and some not.

      We need more data points. But trial and error is the way to go.

  14. Ml

    Can you change from a stop over to a direct route between the same 2 end cities ?

  15. Zs

    Would this work with partner airlines booked on JetBlue.com?

  16. Mendy

    The city pair or dates selected do not fall within the approved change window. Select ‘Review Search Criteria’ to return to the previous page and make a different selection, or ‘Proceed with changes’ to continue and incur any fare increase.

    • Mendy

      Am i doing something wrong? Im trying to switch my orlando flight to pesach. Does that message mean i cant?

      • Hustler

        i’ve got that message too. the only way to know is to select the flight and see if it increases. it worked for me even with that message

  17. Ruch

    Can I do this on blue basic fares too?

  18. Adam

    Worked beautifully. Thank you.

  19. ralph

    doesnt work from DTW to BOS I tried changing to date in Oct. their charging me crazy $

  20. Abebee

    Just booked 7 RT JFK-MCO (originally jan 25-26) total $960 changed to pesach april dates over $6000 in savinging.

    Thanks Dan!

    • Fawn Zakheim

      Did you book them each 1 way and each separately or you booked 6 together round trip?

    • Leah

      Which flight MCO – JFK on Jan 26?
      Not working for me on the flights I tried so far that date..

  21. Al

    Just did this for an aruba to jfk flight during yeshiva break! Switched from the earlier to the later flight. Was supposed to be 640$ Change difference each ticket. Did it for Free!!
    Thanks

  22. necjak15

    works for EWR to MCO. thanks!

  23. Yoni

    Issue is that it’ll take about 3 days to confirm they’ll honor all these tickets, by then you can’t cancel if they don’t honor the ticket change… You’ll be “stuck” with random January flights if you’re intention was to only go pesach…

    • Dan

      No, they would have to offer a refund if they won’t honor it.

  24. Yoely

    What are the chances this is honored?

  25. Josh

    HPN- FLL and FLL-HPN do not work

    • CML

      I booked out of Newark and it let me change the airport from Newark to HPN

  26. Yossi170

    I think it’s dead, I booked 5 tickets and successfully change it, (thanks Dan), I tried doing the same and it didn’t work anymore

    • Dan

      It may only work with specific dates or flights in January.

  27. dan not Dan

    I tried 3 different combos and could not get it to change date without face adjustment.

  28. Rsam

    Until when can I change the flight for free with no change fee?

    • Flyin-High

      FLL – EWR worked for me, 10 minutes ago.

  29. Michal

    Does this work with flights operated by American Airlines booked through JetBlue?

  30. Chaim

    When I try to click on Manage my Trip, I’m getting this message; “There was an error processing your request, possibly due to another update that is in progress. If you continue to receive this error, please contact 1-800-JETBLUE for assistance.”

    • Chaim

      Tried again an hour later and it worked! FLL-JFK

  31. mmmmmh

    I just got a cancellation for my booking (within 10 minutes?)

    • Barry

      did you already have a flight booked on the flight you changed to?

    • mmmmmh

      They said due to duplicate booking (I did not cancel my original flight in case they canceled this)

  32. Sam

    Fll-Bos and Mia-bos did not work

  33. Sk

    I booked from lga to ffl and each time I try to change it to pesach dates, it’s not working! The price is increasing.

    • Dan

      Try other airports or other dates/flights in January.

      • Sk

        Any suggestions on which dates might work? Thank you in advance!
        Trying different dates as well right now!

    • CML

      it shows that you need to pay and then on the side it waives the fee it also confused me

  34. Rsam

    It is now giving me a change fee. before it showed me $0 change fee but doesn’t seem to be the case anymore

    • Dan

      Did you already make a change on the itinerary?

      • Rsam

        Ya I was able to with the first itinerary which showed up as $0 but after when I booked a second itinerary for the same route there was a change fee

        • Dan

          Did you book a different date or flight number?

          • Rsam

            No, exactly the same. Seems to be they may have stopped maybe just for that route? Did round trip JFK-MCO

          • Rsam

            Ok just realized I booked feb and trying to change, the other was for January! Ok I’m trying again thanks Dan!

  35. DansTheBest

    @Dan – any thoughts on doing this multiple times – meaning for multiple itineraries? Or should we not push our luck and see how this goes?

    • Hustler

      if you book on same date jetblue may cancel as there is multiple bookings with same pax info

  36. DS

    Do lap infants get any luggage allowance on Blue?

  37. CML

    just booked chal hamoed Pesach EWR to MCO and MCO to EWR, I changed the flights and I even was able to change the airport to HPN – Westchester which is closer to where I live.

    • Zvi

      What dates on January did you use?

  38. MG

    Just worked on FLL-EWR. Problem is I rebooked the same flights i had booked 3 months ago for more. How long should i wait now before canceling the original flights, in case they dont honor these?

    • Sk

      Rebooked for pesach? Which flight #? Thanks!

      • MG

        Yeshiva week. Return flight on 1/31. FLL-EWR 8:55pm. But it turns out it didnt accept my change. Did not tell me why. It showed 0 fee for the change, but when i processed it gave me an error. Could it be because 4 of the 5 passengers were already on the flight?

  39. weinberg

    just booked ewr to mia random dates in january 80$ round trip and switched it to pres weekend [600$ round] for free in februrary!!!! it worked ty @dan

  40. Thank u

  41. yossi170

    Thanks Dan!! Saved $6,000 bucks!!!

  42. Joey

    I just Booked for January 15 and I’m trying to make the change but it says that I have to call because it has not been operated by jet blue even though I booked it directly from jetBlue site

    • Thank u

      Just cancel bec they will not honor the change if operated by a different airline. I’m on hold still trying to cancel my flight. Meantime I booked out of a different airport (Newark) and it worked. Still waiting to cancel original flight operated by AA even tho booked directly on Jet blue.

  57. Dave

    Worked fine..
    Just checked my status and it says ITINERARY CANCELLED.
    No email though saying it was cancelled though

    • Dan

      Do you have a duplicate booking for the same day?

  58. SG

    I’m confused, can I cancel for 24 hours on a basic blue flight?

  59. Shmoe joe

    Save even more … much more…. By staying home

  60. Jacob

  62. Aron

    I have a flight from Cun-jfk Thur the 27th I can extend my trip till Sunday the 30th for the same price with this but what will happen to my original tickets if they don’t honor this. I paid a lot less then what price is now for original ticket

    • Dan

      Don’t cancel the original tickets yet?

      • Aron

        So your saying I shouldn’t make the change to Sunday yet?

          • Aron

            Sorry not understanding. I already have my itinerary for the 27th booked for $117 from a month ago tickets for same itinerary is $500 now. I’m looking to extend trip to the 30th which it will let for free.
            How can I book both?

          • Dan

            Are there no cheap dates available in January?

          • Aron

            Ah I got what your saying yes they have other cheap flights in January I will do it like that and if all works out cancel original itinerary. Thanks

          • Barry

            when i tried booking the same itinerary i already had, it auto-cancelled the new one

      • Aron

        So your saying I shouldn’t change itinerary yet?

  63. Lm

    I was able to book jfk-puj successfully and saved $3k but now a few minutes later I got an email that “itinerary was cancelled”….. any ideas?

    FYI- I already had a separate booking for those Pesach dates.

    • Dan

      Duplicate bookings on the same date will trigger an automatic cancellation.

        • Dan

          Not sure how sophisticated their systems are.
          United checks for overlapping times to see if it’s possible to catch both flights and then auto cancels if it’s not.

          • Sruly

            My double (same date) booked flights did not auto-cancel.

          • Lm

            Is this still true? Mine cancelled using my TrueBlue account and then again even without true blue account added to itinerary

          • Lm

            Any work around? I don’t want to cancel my original flights as they went up so much since I originally booked

          • w

            united and jetblue flag duplicate bookings for same day flights , even ifthey have different names on the reservation?

          • Dan

            Of course not.

          • Can’t cancel after change

            Same day bookings from different airports (same destination) but times don’t overlap. Will that trigger a cancel?

  64. Eli

    Jkf to pbi worked before
    Now pbi to jfk ain’t working

  65. George

    If I want to change the days again closer to my actual trip, will that be doable without changing the price?

  66. Yonah

    • Bert

      Booked 14 tickets, saved me a ton of money. Thanks, Dan!!!

    • OMG!

      Jetblue canceled tomorrow’s flights to Cancun 🙁 🙁

  84. Bert

    Did not work JFK- Cancun. Only from newark. Tested a whole bunch of ways 🙂

  85. David

    Booked for my whole fam from EWR-MCO, was a Fee Waiver ticket and changed successfully to week before Pesach. That flight should have costed me $2211.60 for 6 tickets but only costed me $471.60 – Thank you Dan!!
    Way home was more complicated, MCO-EWR didn’t work, so I booked MCO-LGA which did give me Fee Waiver, then when changing it, I was able to change the airport as well back to MCO-EWR. Ended up booking MCO-HPN on 4/24, should have costed $3972 for 6 tickets, paid $561.60 – Thank you Dan!!

    • S.s.

      David- you booking was a blue basic?

  90. BothofUs2

    Booked 4 persons RT ORD-FLL, and successfully switched all tickets to late June/early July. Booked as one way tickets both directions, done as 2 family members x 2 reservations each way, so 4 PNR’s total. Total cost would have been $2260, but this technique allowed us 4 to travel “all in” for $528. Thanks Dan for finding this and sharing, crossing my fingers they honor it !!!

    • Barry

      It would have been nice if would have shared what flights you were able to find that had it

  103. MD

    I rarely comment here, but wanted to share a thank you – my sons bar mitzvah is erev erev pesach and needed to be in NY for that day and fly back home right away. Tickets were around $6-700 round trip each and this cut them to $100 each. Thank you for sharing this.

  104. Meryl

    Booked EWR-MCO (and return) and so far it worked. My only issue is that one way there are only upgraded seats open. I don’t want to call and tip them off but how can I get seats together without having to upgrade?

    • Daniella

      Hi what date did you do the original ticket? Thanks!

  105. Nechama

    Thank you Dan, booked tickets to Cancun for Pesach and saved $10k on tickets BH!

  106. Stephanie

    Thank you so much Dan!! Any recommendations for car rentals in Orlando at a good price?

  107. SK

    Booked Newark to Cancun and it worked. Saved me 6k for Peasch tickets! Let’s hope they honor!

  108. Zippity

    Can I apply for the jet blue card now to get free checked bags if I didnt use the card to pay for the tickets, and still get the free checked bags for me and companions?

    • Danfan5773

      Yes. Just need to add ur true blue # associated with ur card and for the system to recognize ur card should be open 7 days

  109. Menashe

    Can you change *to* an American Airlines codeshare flight?

  110. Yosef

    I booked one of the examples and tried to switch.
    It said “Fee Waiver”.
    Still trying to charge me now.
    Dead?

  111. Can’t cancel after change

    I booked and then changed to April. Then tried canceling (within 24 hours) and they are not allowing a refund

    “ Since this ticket was exchanged to another flight the 24 hour Department of Transportation refund policy does not apply. It is for new, unchanged bookings only that are over 7 days from the booking date.”

    Dan Any tips how to get the refund?

    • Ezi

      Didn’t have any issue … booked and cancelled a bunch of itineraries. Even after changing to April dates .

      • gazz88

        me too . no issues . i made 4 seperate bookings before finalizing one and canceled the rest

    • Yochai

      I’ve had luck in the past by texting them. But it’s definitely easier to book through Priceline/Expedia

  112. Alfique

    It worked for me last night and today up until 10am. Now the newly purchased Jan flight shows the difference in fare if tried to change to March. Well, it worked for quite a bit. Thanks, Dan!

    • Juniper

      This was my experience. Booked and changed one flight earlier this morning. Then booked the return, but the system shows a fare increase when I try to change it.

  113. Yochai

    Confirmed dead!
    Was fun while it lasted…

  114. Adam

    Dan – please let us know if you hear if JetBlue is not honoring these tickets for some reason.

    • Dan

      I’m not planning on asking them. If we don’t see mass cancellations by Wednesday/Thursday, I’d assume that they will honor this.

  115. Barry

    Thanks Dan
    That one was a time-consuming one but at least I did get some of my family on a really good flight home from yeshiva break

    I had the whole family booked and ready to pick a full iteinerary.. but couldn’t pick when we wanted to go

    FYI when the kids get older trips get a lot more complicated

  116. mendel

    i tried at 11 and it was dead already

    • Dan

      Already?
      The average life span of a smoking hot deal is measured in minutes.
      This lasted over 15 hours!

  117. simon

    I Was having trouble cancelling certain itineraries that I had booked and I needed to call Jetblue. After 78 minutes on hold, the agent cancelled it. If your sesssions are timing out when trying to cancel. you need to call.

  118. malki

    thank you for that amazinbg deal, can we know how many days it would take for use to say that it is safe that jetblue will for sure honor them ?

    • Dan

      If we don’t see mass cancellations by Wednesday/Thursday, I’d assume that they will honor this.

  119. Jetblue question

    How can I get a free carry on with jetblue? Are they strict about charging?

  120. willie

    ya just tried jfk-mco-dead
    I missed a good one

  121. Chanie

    I had to change a ticket today for same day,but different time and they made me pay the approx $100 fare difference.Is there anything i can do about it now,or is it too ate?

  122. mutty

    i booked ticket with amex travel and made change with jet blue online and called today added infant. now nothing is coming up on jet blue .com this means they canceled it?

    • Dan

      Did you have multiple reservations that day?

      • Mutty

        No. Only this one nothing is opening on jetblue.com. I’m trying to reach them

  123. Embarrassed

    I spoke to JetBlue about this, and a higher up is supposed to get back to me.
    This is not okay!
    It’s akin to someone leaving $5 on a table next to mine by mistake and me just stealing it as opposed to returning it.
    You guys ought to be ashamed!!
    God gives exactly what we need. Trying to publicly steal, will not have an effect on what were ultimately supposed to earn.

    • Dan

      Oh please. Several airlines have offered free changes like this from time to time.
      Sorry you missed the deal!

    • Stop crying that you missed out

      @Dan this is what I think happened. I think this low life couldn’t figure out how to get the deal so instead of accepting the fact that they missed out, they decided to cry about it and bring everyone down with them.
      But I do appreciate the effort, they were probably waiting on hold with Jet Blue for hours. Serious dedication.
      Keep it up Dan, you’re the man.

    • Donald

      “Embarrassed” Just answer one question for me please. Do you wear a mask when you’re driving in your car? If so, is it 1 or 2 masks? And, is it a kn95 mask when you’re alone in your car?

  124. Josh

    Just received cancellation for my flight from EWR to Vegas was cancelled. My flight from Vegas back to EWR still valid as of now

    • deals

      What did it say cancellation reason?

    • Dan

      Did you have a duplicate booking that day?

  125. Grateful

    @DansDeals could we assume that tickets are honored? (Should I start looking into hotels etc..)

  126. Nomis

    If the original flight booked was $100, and I changed for free to a $745 flight, is my ticket now considered to be worth $745? For example, if I want to now change to another $745 flight, will it be considered equal value, or will I need to pay an upcharge from $100?

    I know we may now “know” but curious of any thoughts.

    Thank you Dan! This was incredible for my family and I!

    • Nomis

      I just attempted. The value is the original value of $100. So yes, there will be a drastic upcharge.

    • curioys

      plus 1 anyone know the answer to this question? curious

  127. segway

    Thank you again Dan. We never would have paid the $1500 r/t fare for Feb vacation … but we got it for $210 each.

  128. Elli

    Good for you Dan! I’m happy you have real results to show for all your followers. I personally didn’t get this deal, just the point of people who don’t jump into these deals with the logic of “its anyhow getting cancelled”

  129. Abie Silvers

    It didn’t work. I did jfk to FLL in January and then changed it for Passover to April and they want me to pay the difference in fare.

    Did I do something wrong Dan?

    • Dan

      “Update, 1/3 at 10:45am: DEAD!”

      • Abie Silvers

        Thanks! I saw that it said posted again today at 1/9 so I thought it was happening again.

  130. todah

    anyone know what it would cost for a name change on jet blue flights? or is there no such thing

  131. Eli

    Reading this on my flight while we taxi FLL-EWR
    Thanks Dan

  132. OMG!

    Jetblue canceled tomorrow’s flights to Cancun 🙁 🙁
