Airfare deals are typically only available on limited dates. We recommend that you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz or Expedia, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. However, if you’re using the American Express Platinum Card, you’ll need to book directly with the airline or through Amex Travel portal to get 5x MR points. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz or Expedia’s courtesy cancellation if you’re unable to get the time away from work or family.
JetBlue has a great deal from New York City to the Dutch Caribbean island of Curaçao (CUR). While you can't use this deal to escape the snow anytime soon, you can take-off for a beach vacation starting in just over a month.
If you've got JetBlue TrueBlue points, you can apply them to this itinerary to get a round-trip for just 10,600 points +$61 in taxes. If you're short on points, check out the JetBlue Plus Card, which you can use to get 30,000 points for spending just $1,000 in the first 90 days. That's almost enough points for three round-trips to Curaçao on this deal.
