My daughter and I had a United credit we used for 2 of the one ways. Award availability was open at 11K for each one way, so we grabbed those. Barclays card includes just about free suitcase for everyone on the itinerary. I kept 2 separate browsers open when booking from each account as JetBlue limit is 7 on one itinerary and was afraid the price might go up after one booking. Jetblue has this pooling option ( ) that allows me to take her leftover points, add 6K UR points from Chase onto my account to get the last ticket. That still left us 3K points short on each account. My wife and I each got a card which gave us 61K points each. Barclays had on offer for 60K points after $1K spend ( ). They wanted 12800 TrueBlue points for each one way, so we needed 128K for 10.
