SHELTON, Conn., July 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SSI recently partnered with JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ: JBLU) to allow members of the airline's TrueBlue^TM loyalty program to join a new business research panel from SSI called the Points for Surveys™ panel (www.pointsforsurveys.com). Points for Surveys members, part of SSI's B2B inSSItes^TM business sample will earn TrueBlue points for sharing their opinions.

"At JetBlue, we are always looking at ways in which we can enhance our TrueBlue customer loyalty program. We chose to partner with SSI because its unique partnership model provides exceptional value to our members," said Kelly Roe, JetBlue's director of loyalty and partnerships.
