JetBlue has a simple elite status program – one level and it is called Mosaic status. While it may not be the same kind of status that you are used to with other programs, it is still elite status and can help you with your travel on JetBlue! Now, they are again offering a match and a challenge!
Match to JetBlue Mosaic Elite Status in Minutes
As status goes, this is not something that many people may get excited about, but if you have travel on JetBlue coming up, you might as well get it! Here are some of the things I like about what they offer their Mosaic members (see this page for all the details):
- Change and cancellation fees will be waived for Mosaic members and others on their itinerary
- Cut down on the time it takes to get to your gate with complimentary access to an expedited security line
- Early Boarding – Be among the first to board and get early access to overhead bin space
- 2 Bags Free – The Mosaic member and others on their itinerary can check both the first and second bags for free
- Earn additional 3 points per dollar on your JetBlue flight for a total of at least 9 points per dollar when booked on jetblue.com

If you do not have elite status with another airline, you can still challenge for Mosaic elite status. This is helpful if you want to get some elite status and possibly match it to another airline at a later time. Here is what you need to do to fulfill the challenge:
- Register from now until May 31, 2016
- You will have 90 calendar days to earn 3,750 base flight points
- Status earned through the challenge will give you Mosaic through 2017
- Base flight points are the 3 points per $1 you earn on the base fare of your JetBlue-operated flight (so a total of $1,250 on airfare)
