Rather than holding each individual family member's points individually, they can now be combined into a "family pool" and used by any member.

I signed our trio up last night .

I saw that too, but haven't checked into it yet. Maybe I'll do that this morning.

Just heard about this... sounds like it could be a good deal - just hoping that this doesn't mean that they are going to raise points requirements through the roof to compensate...

I signed up and combined all our points last night. I'm really excited that you can pool them now! Hopefully this should make redeeming points a lot easier.

Interested in this. So if I get it right, if my wife, myself and four kids are flying in November, I can get points for my flight plus theirs under my account right? I'm the only one with a JetBlue account. Seems they all need to have separate emails though?

Under the program, as the "Head of the Household", you would set up your Family Pool within your TrueBlue account. Then you would add your other family members to your Family Pool, including their TrueBlue numbers (so yes, they should each have their own account and their own email address). Your family members will then receive an "invitation" to join your family pool, and then can opt to have all future TrueBlue points deposited to the family pool rather than to their own separate TrueBlue account.

It was really quite an easy process for us (but we all had our own TrueBlue accounts already established). Points were transferred instantly into the family pool, so there is no wait to have all your points combined.

DH, DS & I also all had TrueBlue accounts, and I created our Family Pool yesterday. Easy Peasy, and the points showed up instantly as well. Wish they had done it a month ago, though, as I just paid to transfer some points from DS's account to mine for a flight in December
