Editor's Note
Editor's note: This post was updated with examples of the sale.
JetBlue Airways has been celebrating its 22nd birthday this week, with five days of deals. On Friday, it's giving travelers one more shot to book a $22 flight. If you've been feeling a little wanderlust, these deals make it possible to fly from New York's JFK to Boston; Jacksonville, Florida; or even Miami for just $22 each direction of travel for flights as soon as next week!
The carrier is also bringing back offers from earlier this week that offered 10% off Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort theme park tickets or savings on JetBlue Vacations.
To take advantage of these deals, go to jetblue.com/sale/birthday-promo.
Deal basics
Airline: JetBlue Airways.
How to book: Directly through the airline.
Travel dates: Feb. 15-April 27, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays only.
Book by: 11:59 p.m. EST on Feb. 11 for $22 flights.
Keep in mind, the lowest fares are Blue Basic fares which have restrictions including fees for seat selection and baggage. Even if you book a Blue Basic fare, however, you'll be able to change the ticket for a $100 fee.
Sample flights
We found incredible deals out of New York-JFK including lots of domestic trips beginning at just $22, but check out the international fares we also found: Aruba and Bermuda for under $100 one way.
How does Jacksonville for $22 sound?
You can fly from New York-JFK to Jacksonville (JAX) or Miami (MIA) for just $22 one way. If you'd rather have a ticket that is easier to change or cancel, main cabin fares are still a bargain at $51.60.
Or how about Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Washington, D.C. (DCA), for just $22? You could also fly to the Bahamas or the Dominican Republic from Florida beginning at $44.
You could also fly from cities like Boston (BOS), Chicago (ORD) or San Francisco (SFO) at great prices (like flights to New York for just $88). Here are just a few examples from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS).
Other deals
In case you missed it earlier this week, you can also book a flight on JetBlue.com and get access to 10% off Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort theme park tickets on Paisly.com, for purchases made by 11:59 p.m. EST on Feb. 14 for all travel dates.
Or save up to $600 off packages with round-trip flights and a cruise or round-trip flights and a hotel when you book a JetBlue Vacations package by 11:59 p.m. EST on Feb. 14, for travel Feb. 21-Dec. 31. Use "BIRTHDAY200" for $200 off when you spend at least $2,000; "BIRTHDAY400" for $400 off when you spend $4,000 or more and "BIRTHDAY600" for $600 off when you spend $6,000 or more. Note that minimum spending is inclusive of taxes and fees.
Maximize your purchase
Don't forget to use a card that earns points on airfare purchases, such as The Platinum Card® from American Express (5 points per dollar on airfare booked directly with the airline or through American Express Travel, on up to $500,000 on these purchases per calendar year), Citi Prestige® Card (5 points per dollar on airfare), Citi Premier® Card, Chase Sapphire Reserve (3 points per dollar on airfare), American Express® Gold Card (3 points per dollar on airfare when booked directly with the airline or through Amex Travel) or the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card (2 points per dollar on travel). Check out this post for more on maximizing airfare purchases.

Bottom line
If you want in on flights starting at just $22 each way, remember that this party ends at midnight (Eastern time). And don't worry, if your plans change, remember JetBlue's change policy is no fees for changes or cancellations (except on Blue Basic fares), so buy now, and you can always adjust the tickets later. If you are nervous, the main cabin fares are still set at great prices too.
