I knew this would ramp up 😉

In a Status Challenge that is quite (very!) similar to the Alaska Airlines status match for Delta elites, JetBlue is out with its own that will match you uo to Level 4 Mosaic based on your current Delta status.

JetBlue writes:

For a limited time¹, Delta SkyMiles Medallions can join the JetBlue family with an exclusive offer to match their status to Mosaic. Once your status is matched, it will be valid until 12/30/23, and you can then keep that status through 2024 by completing a challenge. Make the most of your Medallion with Mosaic status—and the all-new perks we launched this year—as follows:    

Delta Silver Medallions will be matched to Mosaic 1

As a Mosaic 1, you’ll receive the following Signature Perks:

• First 2 checked bags free  
• Mosaic Boarding  
• Even More Space at no extra charge during check-in  
• 24/7 dedicated phone line and priority chat   
• Free Same-Day Switches  
• Priority Security  
• Free Beer, Wine & Liquor on-board  

Plus, you’ll enjoy Mint Suite® Priority as your pre-selected Mosaic 1 Perk You Pick.

Delta Gold Medallions will be matched to Mosaic 2

Delta Platinum Medallions will be matched to Mosaic 3

As a Mosaic 3, you’ll receive the following Signature Perks:  

• All of the Mosaic 1 & 2 Signature Perks     
• 4 Move to Mint certificates, allowing you to book in back and move to Mint at no extra charge  

Plus, you’ll enjoy the FoundersCard Blue Membership as your pre-selected Mosaic 3 Perk You Pick.

Delta Diamond Medallions will be matched to Mosaic 4

As a Mosaic 4, you’ll receive the following Signature Perks:

• All of the Mosaic 1, 2 & 3 Signature Perks     
• 2 additional Move to Mint certificates
• Credits for 4 one-way Blade Airport helicopter transfers between Manhattan & JFK or EWR

Plus, you’ll enjoy 15,000 TrueBlue Points as your pre-selected Mosaic 4 Perk You Pick.

All status and perks are valid through 12/30/23, and keeping your status through 2024 is as easy as successfully completing this challenge.

This challenge can be completed in one of two ways: 

• Have a JetBlue Plus Card or JetBlue Business Card by 12/30/23
• Earn and receive the following number of tiles between the date you receive your matched Mosaic status and 12/30/23
  • Silver Medallion = 6 tiles to keep Mosaic 1
  • Gold Medallion = 12 tiles to keep Mosaic 2
  • Platinum Medallion = 24 tiles to keep Mosaic 3
  • Diamond Medallion = 30 tiles to keep Mosaic 4

Summary

What’s different compared to the Alaska challenge is that they are not going to take into account your status earned on Delta for next year. With Alaska, they are bumping you an extra tier if you have the status earned for next year, with Platinum matching to Alaska’s top tier. With JetBlue it is only based on this years status and you’ll match to the equivalent tier (so only Delta Diamonds get top tier Mosaic 4).

But ripping a page from the exact same playbook, you can forgo the challenge and keep the status through Dec 2024 is you simply have or open a JetBlue credit card (personal or business).

Given that Alaska isn’t interested in my business since I matched to them 6 years ago, I will likely give JetBlue’s match a try – even though I’ll have to open a credit card I don’t otherwise want.
