Connor's Recommendation

Frequent Alaska flyers should definitely go for either the personal or business card. For maximized welcome bonus flyers could go for both

Frequent Jet Blue flyers should go for the personal and business. Can always downgrade the personal to the no annual fee card at a later date

Chase, Amex and Citi can transfer points to JetBlue
