How to find and book JetBlue Mint flights to the Caribbean using Qatar Avios

Описание: Nick found a great deal using Qatar Avios to fly JetBlue's lie-flat business class "Mint" to the Caribbean, which left Greg wondering...how did he find availability?

In this video, Nick shows Greg how to use ITA Matrix to find the award availability for this kind of flight sweet spot.

00:00 - Start
0:40 - Make sure you have a route in mind that has Mint service. (Just google "JetBlue Mint Routes" for instance.)
0:57 - Visit Matrix.itasoftware.com and do a one-way search with your route details. (JFK to AUA (Aruba) is an example)
1:30 - Check the "Show Advanced Controls" button
1:40 - Add the routing code "C:B6" (which limits the "Carrier" to JetBlue)
2:28 - Add the extension code "F BC=I" (which sets the fare class to Mint)
3:03 - Select "See calendar of lowest fares"
4:10 - If a price shows up on the calendar, that means there's availability on that date. So then you can find this same result by searching Qatar's site for award availability and matching the details.
5:34 - If you the "award search" option isn't showing up on Qatar's website, try using the Qatar Airways app.
6:32 - Find the flight that matches what you'd pulled up on ITA Matrix, and confirm that business class is available.
