Can I cancel my jetBlue flight?

 

Yes! Your options depend on the fare you purchased and how quickly you act.

24-Hour Risk-Free Cancellation

Regardless of the fare selected (including Blue Basic), you can cancel your reservation within 24 hours of booking for a full refund to your original form of payment, provided your travel was booked at least 7 days (1 week) prior to the departure date.

Cancellation by Fare Type (Post 24-Hours)

JetBlue has simplified its fee structure for most fares:

• Blue, Blue Plus, Blue Extra, and Mint: There are no cancellation fees. If you cancel before departure, the funds will be issued as a JetBlue travel credit valid for 12 months.

• Blue Basic: This fare is the most restrictive. Cancellations incur a fee of $100 (for travel within North America, Central America, or the Caribbean) or $200 (for all other routes).

• Refundable Fares: You can cancel anytime prior to departure for a full refund to your original form of payment.

Can I change my jetBlue booking?

Yes, JetBlue allows for flexibility across most fare classes.

• Standard Changes: For Blue, Blue Plus, Blue Extra, and Mint, there are no change fees; you only pay the difference in airfare. Blue Basic fares generally do not allow changes.

• Same-Day Switches: If you want to switch to an earlier or later flight on the same day, a flat fee of $75 applies (waived for Blue Extra and Mosaic members). This switch must be between the same city pairs and is subject to availability.

You can manage these updates via the Manage Trips page or the JetBlue mobile app.

Can I change the name on my jetBlue booking?

While JetBlue allows minor name corrections (such as fixing a misspelling to match a government ID), they do not allow for full name changes to transfer a ticket to another person.

How to get your money back using Gadobo

If you cannot fly and don't want your money to sit in a travel credit that might expire, you can still recover your funds through Gadobo.

Since JetBlue issues travel credits for canceled non-refundable flights, you can use that credit to book a flight for someone else. On Gadobo, you can list "ghost flights" (popular routes like JFK to LAX) and specify in your listing that you are selling a JetBlue credit. Once a buyer is interested, you simply use your credit to book the flight in their name.
