How to Transfer Capital One Miles to JetBlue TrueBlue (2026 Guide)
Capital One's transfer partnership with JetBlue TrueBlue comes with a blunt catch: you lose 40% of your miles in the conversion. It's weaker than Amex's 5:4 ratio, but the transfer is instant.

The short version
Capital One miles transfer to JetBlue TrueBlue at 5:3, instant. Dynamic pricing that works well for JetBlue Mint.
The 5:3 Ratio, Explained
Every 5 Capital One miles become 3 TrueBlue points — a straight 40% reduction. Amex transfers to the same program at 5:4, keeping 80% of value instead of 60%. If you hold both, Amex is the better source.
Transfers post instantly, so there's no multi-day wait to find out whether the transfer was worth it.
Why JetBlue's Dynamic Pricing Changes the Calculus
TrueBlue points required for any flight move with the cash fare. A rough rule of thumb: TrueBlue points are worth about 1.3 to 1.5 cents each toward JetBlue flights.
When the 5:3 Ratio Is Still Worth It
The 40% haircut matters most on cheap awards. It matters least on Mint business class, where cash fares run $600 to well over $2,000 one-way.
