Airline guides / JetBlue
JetBlue price dropped after you booked? Get the difference back.
Based on JetBlue's published policies, checked 2026-11-07.
Changes: No change fee on Main, EvenMore, BlueFirst and Mint fares. You only pay (or get back) the fare difference.
What you get back: a JetBlue travel credit. It lasts 12 months from when you first bought the ticket, and anyone can use it for travel.
Basic economy: Base fares cost $150 per person to change, which usually wipes out the savings.
Step by step
- Sign in to your TrueBlue account so any credit is saved to it.
- On jetblue.com or the app, open Manage Trips and find your booking.
- Choose to change your flight and pick the exact same flights on the same dates and fare. If they aren't offered, cancel (the value becomes travel credit) and rebook the same flights right away with that credit.
- Check that the new price is lower, then confirm. The difference becomes JetBlue travel credit.
Booked within the last 24 hours?
Booked at least 7 days before departure? You can cancel with no penalty within 24 hours of booking, then rebook at the lower price.
Paid with TrueBlue miles?
TrueBlue award bookings on non-Base fares can be changed with no fee. JetBlue doesn't say whether points come back when the price drops, so check the change screen before you confirm.
Watch out for
- Do it online. Phone or chat changes add a $25 fee per person.
- Expired credits can't be extended or returned, and repricing doesn't restart the 12-month clock.
- Credits can't pay for extras like seats or bags.
