The aircraft was showcased on Tuesday at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), where U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy joined JetBlue CEO Joanna Geraghty and an all-veteran JetBlue flight crew to recognize the airline's tribute to veterans and active-duty service members whose service has helped safeguard the freedoms celebrated throughout the nation's 250-year history.

The aircraft now serves as a flying tribute to America’s historic anniversary while continuing to recognize the service, sacrifice and dedication of the United States’ service members. As part of the tribute, JetBlue is also unveiling a limited run of 1,776 trading cards featuring the special livery. “As we mark America’s 250th anniversary, JetBlue is proud to celebrate the spirit of service, community and connection that has shaped our country,” said Joanna Geraghty, chief executive officer, JetBlue. “Our ‘Vets in Blue’ aircraft has long served as a tribute to the veterans and service members who inspire us, and adding this special 250 design gives us a meaningful way to honor this historic milestone. From the onboard video to the volunteer work our crewmembers will take part in, we’re honoring the people who have defended our nation and continue to protect the ideals that move us forward.” "I'm proud to see JetBlue join in on celebrating America’s 250th anniversary," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. "JetBlue's patriotic plane embodies the great American spirit and reminds passengers our nation is worth celebrating." Bringing the Celebration Onboard
Continuing the celebration of this milestone in the nation’s history, JetBlue also announced a series of special initiatives to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States, including a limited-time inflight video showcased onboard all JetBlue flights and a veteran-focused service initiative. The special inflight video honors the United States and its 250-year history, as well as the nation’s veterans and the airline’s own crewmembers. Narrated by JetBlue’s chief operating officer and U.S. Navy veteran, Warren Christie, the video will be available onboard all JetBlue flights throughout July. Customers will also be greeted with a welcome screen featuring the airline’s “250” design. Combined, these will give customers the opportunity to reflect on the country’s anniversary and recognize the people who continue to move the nation forward while traveling across JetBlue’s network. Crewmembers in Action
This month, JetBlue crewmembers will participate in a volunteer initiative supporting veterans, extending the airline’s commemoration of America’s 250th anniversary into the community. As part of JetBlue’s longstanding support for U.S. military veterans, the airline’s crewmembers will assemble care packages for veterans, including sock bundles and personalized notes of appreciation, to be distributed to local VA hospitals across JetBlue’s network. This volunteer project provides a meaningful way for JetBlue crewmembers to honor veterans while recognizing the service and sacrifice that have helped shape the nation’s history. “Service is at the heart of JetBlue’s culture, both to our customers and our communities,” said Geraghty. “This volunteer initiative gives our crewmembers a meaningful way to show gratitude to our veterans, carrying the spirit of America’s 250th anniversary beyond the airport and into the communities we serve.” JetBlue’s ‘Vets in Blue’ crewmember resource group will also activate local volunteer opportunities throughout the airline’s network. Veterans Take Flight
JetBlue is proud to celebrate all of its crewmembers with military service, whose leadership, honor and dedication continue to strengthen the company’s culture throughout its operation. JetBlue supports veterans and military families through a variety of initiatives, including: Vets in Blue, JetBlue’s crewmember resource group, which fosters community, support and engagement among veteran crewmembers and allies. The Gateway Rotor Transition Program, which provides U.S. military-trained helicopter pilots a pathway to become JetBlue first officers through fixed-wing instruction and flight-time building opportunities. An annual military hiring event at JetBlue University, hosted in partnership with Vets in Blue and external military organizations, that welcomes active-duty service members, veterans and their families to explore career opportunities across the airline.

Airlines Poised to Benefit from Lower Fuel Costs, but Cheaper Tickets May Be Slow to ArriveJune 22, 2026 6:40 AM
IH Market News Airlines could see a substantial reduction in fuel expenses following the decline in oil prices triggered by the interim peace agreement between the United States and Iran. However, passengers should not expect ticket prices to fall immediately, as constrained capacity may allow carriers to retain much of the recent fare increases. The situation is particularly evident in the United States, where ticket prices have not fully kept pace with the surge in fuel costs experienced earlier this year. With limited growth in domestic seat capacity, airlines have room to use lower fuel expenses to strengthen profitability rather than reduce fares. Fuel Prices Retreat Sharply U.S. spot jet fuel prices stood at $2.85 per gallon on June 17, a significant drop from the early-April peak of $4.88 per gallon. If maintained, such a decline could reduce the annual fuel bill for the U.S. airline industry by more than $40 billion, based on Reuters calculations using industry fuel consumption data. The reduction offers carriers a meaningful opportunity to improve earnings after a period of sharply rising operating costs. Airlines Have Not Fully Recovered Higher Fuel Costs Although airlines responded to rising fuel prices by increasing fares, charging higher baggage fees and trimming flight schedules, those measures only partially offset the additional expense. Industry figures show jet fuel costs increased more than three times faster than airfare prices between January and May. According to Deutsche Bank, U.S. airlines are expected to recover only around 60 cents of every extra dollar spent on fuel, translating into approximately $14.4 billion of additional revenue against $24.1 billion in higher fuel costs. Alaska Air (NYSE:ALK) said it had recovered roughly one-third of the increase. Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL), United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) and American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) estimated second-quarter recovery rates of between 40% and 50%, while JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:JBLU) and Frontier Group (NASDAQ:ULCC) expect to recapture less than half of the additional costs. United Airlines chief executive Scott Kirby said his company is steadily closing the gap through pricing measures. “We’re on a path to recovering 100% by the end of the year,” Kirby told Reuters. Fare Levels Remain the Key Issue Data from Raymond James showed average domestic fares booked one week before departure were 34.1% higher than a year earlier as of June 8. The critical question for the industry is whether airlines can maintain those higher fares even as fuel costs decline. “What remains crucial is the ability to hold price,” said Melius Research analyst Conor Cunningham, adding that lower gasoline prices could reduce consumer sensitivity to elevated airfare levels. International Markets May See Different Outcomes Outside the United States, the impact of lower fuel prices is expected to vary by region. Dudley Shanley, head of aviation and travel research at Goodbody, said crude oil declines take time to filter through to jet fuel markets. Unless fuel prices return to levels seen at the beginning of the year, airlines are likely to keep fares stable or increase them where demand remains strong. In Europe, analysts expect long-haul ticket prices to face greater downward pressure because carriers have been more successful at passing on higher fuel costs on those routes. Short-haul fares may prove more resilient if the peace agreement stimulates demand and travel bookings. HSBC analysts noted that China’s largest airlines continue to face weak pricing power and lower aircraft utilisation rates, while Cathay Pacific could be better positioned thanks to stronger premium travel demand and cargo revenue. Middle East Airlines Face a Different Challenge The Middle East remains an exception after months of conflict disrupted air traffic patterns across the region. Aviation analyst John Strickland said some airlines may introduce promotional offers to encourage passengers to return, although fuel costs remain too high to support widespread discounting. He added that carriers in the United Arab Emirates may be able to pursue more aggressive pricing strategies with support from government-backed initiatives. Lower Fuel Costs Could Deliver a Major Earnings Boost Airlines’ financial gains will depend largely on how long lower fuel prices persist. Fuel purchasing is typically spread over time, meaning carriers do not immediately benefit from movements in spot markets. Moreover, despite recent declines, jet fuel prices remain 54% higher than a year ago, according to the International Air Transport Association. Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV) chief operating officer Andrew Watterson highlighted the importance of fuel costs when discussing profitability. “When’s fuel going to go down?” Watterson told Reuters when asked about the timing of a return to pre-pandemic margins. Jefferies estimates that every 5% reduction in its projected 2027 fuel-price forecast of roughly $3 per gallon would increase earnings per share by between 10% and 15% for Delta, Southwest and United, while American Airlines could see earnings rise by as much as 50%. Capacity Constraints Reduce the Risk of a Fare War Historically, falling oil prices often triggered aggressive capacity growth among U.S. airlines, leading to lower ticket prices. This time, however, conditions appear different. Aircraft delivery delays, airport capacity limitations and a weaker low-cost carrier segment are restricting supply growth. Industry data show U.S. domestic seat capacity is expected to increase just 0.4% year-on-year in the third quarter, down sharply from the 4.6% growth projected before the latest Middle East tensions emerged. Analysts at J.P. Morgan said reduced aircraft deliveries and cutbacks by budget airlines lower the risk of “meaningful capacity creep” in the U.S. market, giving carriers an unusually strong ability to maintain pricing discipline. Ultimately, the outlook for ticket prices may depend less on fuel and more on consumer demand. “This is very much subject to the strength of the consumer,” Shanley said.

JetBlue Announces Intent to Launch Service Between Fort Lauderdale and Caracas, VenezuelaMay 28, 2026 12:00 PM
Business Wire New route would further strengthen JetBlue’s leading position in Fort Lauderdale and support travel between the U.S. and Venezuela JetBlue (NASDAQ: JBLU) today announced its intent to launch nonstop service between Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and Simón Bolívar International Airport (CCS) in Maiquetía, Venezuela, marking the airline’s first-ever service to Venezuela. The proposed route remains subject to receipt of government approval and completion of applicable processes to operate in Venezuela. JetBlue plans to begin service before the end of the year, with tickets expected to go on sale in the coming months. The new route will connect Caracas with JetBlue’s Fort Lauderdale focus city, a key gateway to the Caribbean and Latin America, where the airline offers customers an extensive network of destinations across the region. The service is expected to support strong demand from customers visiting friends and relatives, providing South Florida travelers with a convenient new nonstop option to Caracas and seamless connections across JetBlue’s broader network. “Fort Lauderdale continues to serve as JetBlue’s gateway to the Caribbean and Latin America, and we believe there is meaningful opportunity to expand our presence in the region with planned service to Caracas,” said Dave Jehn, vice president, network planning and airline partnerships, JetBlue. “South Florida is home to a large Venezuelan community, and this new route would help connect families and loved ones with JetBlue’s competitive fares and award-winning service.” JetBlue plans to operate the Caracas route using its Airbus A320 aircraft offering the airline's award-winning service, including fast, free, unlimited Fly-Fi®, seatback entertainment at every seat and complimentary snacks and drinks.1 Continued Growth in Fort Lauderdale JetBlue continues to expand its presence in Fort Lauderdale, where the airline recently announced its largest-ever schedule from the airport, including 11 new destinations and additional flights on existing routes across the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean. With nearly 130 daily departures expected this summer, Fort Lauderdale has become one of JetBlue’s largest and most important gateways. The proposed Caracas service would build on that growth by giving South Florida’s Venezuelan community another convenient way to stay connected with family and loved ones, while also expanding access to JetBlue’s broader network across the Americas.

Returning to the Runway: JetBlue Debuts ‘Blueprint II’ on an Airbus A220May 15, 2026 10:03 AM
Business Wire The airline’s iconic “see-through” design returns with new details and icons that reflect JetBlue’s history, network and spirit of exploration JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today began scheduled flying on ‘Blueprint II,’ a reimagined take on one of the airline’s most beloved special liveries, now featured on a brand-new Airbus A220. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260515958052/en/JetBlue's Blueprint II Livery (photo credit: JetBlue). First introduced in 2017 on an Embraer E190, the original Blueprint livery became an instant standout across JetBlue’s fleet for its imaginative “see-through” design, which blended illustrations of everyday travel items with the aircraft’s mechanical structure. Inspired by stories from crewmembers and customers alike, the design featured everything from slices of pizza to potted plants, capturing the joy, personality and memorable moments that define travel in a distinctly JetBlue way. Retired in 2024 as part of JetBlue’s broader fleet transition, the livery remained a favorite among customers, crewmembers and aviation enthusiasts. Now reimagined for the Airbus A220, Blueprint II builds on the original concept with bolder visuals, greater detail and new hidden touches throughout the aircraft. The updated design includes a collection of icons that celebrate JetBlue’s network, heritage and spirit of exploration, including: The fan-favorite oversized teddy bear, now seated in its own passenger seat A crown honoring JetBlue’s first European destination, London A sextant in the flight deck recognizing the history of navigation Fins, a mask and snorkel, and a swimming pool float nodding to the warm-weather vacation destinations at the heart of JetBlue’s network. Blueprint II also includes dozens of additional “Easter eggs” hidden throughout the livery, giving customers and plane spotters new details to discover with every glance. “Our aircraft liveries are an important expression of the JetBlue brand and the humanity that defines our customer experience,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue. “Blueprint II honors a design our customers and crewmembers have loved for years, while celebrating the personal journeys, memories and sense of discovery that continue to shape the JetBlue experience.” With the retirement of its Embraer E190 fleet on September 9, 2025, JetBlue completed its transition to an all-Airbus fleet, anchored by next-generation A220 and A320 aircraft. Blueprint II continues JetBlue’s award-winning tradition of using aircraft design as an extension of the brand, creating liveries that spark curiosity, invite discovery and connect with customers in unexpected ways.

JetBlue Arrives in Italy: New Boston-Milan Service Takes Off TodayMay 11, 2026 5:59 PM

The new route expands JetBlue’s transatlantic network from Boston and reinforces the airline’s position as New England's leading leisure airline, while also strengthening convenient connections for customers traveling across JetBlue’s broader network. With the start of service to Milan, JetBlue now offers customers nine daily nonstop destinations from Boston to Europe during the summer season, complementing existing year-round service to Amsterdam, London-Heathrow and Paris, as well as seasonal flights to Barcelona, Dublin, Edinburgh, London-Gatwick and Madrid. The new route builds on JetBlue’s continued investment in Boston, coming just weeks after the airline launched new seasonal service to Barcelona, Spain, and further strengthens Boston’s role as a key connecting hub. "Launching service to Milan marks an exciting milestone for JetBlue and our continued growth in Boston,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue. “As our first destination in Italy, Milan brings even more reach to our transatlantic network and gives customers, both in New England and across our network, the chance to experience JetBlue’s unique service across the Atlantic. All of it is built around exceptional service, thoughtful design and everyday value.” “We are pleased and proud to welcome the new direct JetBlue connection between Boston and Milano Malpensa Airport, the airport chosen by the American carrier for its debut in Italy. This flight further strengthens the intercontinental network of our airport and reinforces Milan’s role as an international gateway for Northern Italy,” said Aldo Schmid, Head of Aviation Business Development, SEA Milan Airports. “JetBlue’s arrival at Malpensa represents an important sign of confidence in the Milan market and in the potential of tourism and business traffic between Italy and the United States. Boston, besides being a fascinating city to visit, is a strategic destination rich in economic, cultural, and academic opportunities. This new service will offer passengers greater travel options, along with a high-quality experience and efficient connections to the airline’s North American network.” “The launch of the new direct connection between Milan Malpensa and Boston marks a further step forward in strengthening Lombardy’s international outreach, particularly toward the United States. Massachusetts represents a partner of great interest for us, with whom we intend to strengthen international relations and develop new forms of collaboration,” said Raffaele Cattaneo, Undersecretary for International and European Relations, Lombardy Region. “Thanks to the presence of outstanding research centers and academic institutions such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, the state has established itself as a global point of reference in strategic sectors that are also important for Lombardy, ranging from life sciences to aerospace. The flight operated by JetBlue therefore represents a concrete opportunity to foster exchanges, attract investment, and create new opportunities for growth for our territories.” Boston and Milan: Connecting Two World-Class Cities
JetBlue continues to build Boston into a transatlantic gateway, offering customers throughout New England more ways to reach Europe with competitive fares and a high-quality onboard experience. Following the launch of service from Boston to Madrid and Edinburgh last year, and Barcelona earlier this spring, Milan now becomes the newest addition to JetBlue’s European map from Logan. The Milan route also makes it easier for customers across the U.S. to reach one of Europe’s most celebrated cities. Known globally for fashion, design and innovation, Milan offers visitors iconic attractions along with easy access to Lake Como and the Italian Alps. And for customers starting in Italy, Boston opens the door to destinations across JetBlue’s network. As a leading leisure airline in Boston, JetBlue offers extensive service from Logan to popular destinations across Florida, California and the Caribbean; or visitors can stay and experience one of America’s most historic cities. By linking these two cities, both hubs for innovation, education, sports, art and culture, JetBlue is creating new opportunities for customers on both sides of the Atlantic to discover dynamic destinations connected by global influence and local character. The JetBlue Experience

With its largest-ever schedule from FLL, JetBlue brings South Florida customers more choices, more connectivity, and its award-winning experience at attractive fares


Airline introduces new loyalty status match for Spirit Airlines Free Spirit Silver and Gold members, making it easier for travelers to switch to JetBlue


JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced that its expanded Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) schedule and a new loyalty status match for eligible Spirit Airlines Free Spirit Silver and Gold members are now available at jetblue.com and on the JetBlue mobile app.1 Part of its effort to support travelers following the shutdown of Spirit Airlines, the previously announced expansion includes 11 new destinations from FLL and increased frequencies on existing JetBlue routes, giving customers more options to book the airline’s award-winning service and everyday affordable fares.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260504693909/en/11 More Cities for FLL (Credit: JetBlue).
JetBlue will launch new nonstop service between Fort Lauderdale and destinations across the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean.



Six new JetBlue cities: Barranquilla, Colombia2; Baltimore; Cali, Colombia2; Charlotte, N.C.; Columbus, Ohio; and Indianapolis.



New nonstop service from Fort Lauderdale to existing JetBlue cities: Nashville, Tenn.; Detroit; Houston; Chicago; and Ponce, Puerto Rico.



On high-demand existing routes from Fort Lauderdale JetBlue is adding additional daily flights to Austin, Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, Dallas/Fort Worth, Raleigh-Durham, Santo Domingo, and Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic.



From its focus city in San Juan, JetBlue will also launch service to Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI).



“We’re stepping up for Fort Lauderdale to ensure the availability of air service in this market,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue. “Our focus is simple: make it easier for customers to stay connected with the people and places that matter, while delivering the service, comfort and value they expect from JetBlue.”


The new and expanded flying, now available for booking, builds on JetBlue’s position as Fort Lauderdale’s largest airline and reflects the carrier’s long-term commitment to South Florida, which has been a cornerstone of the JetBlue network since its first flight. With this growth, JetBlue expects to operate nearly 130 daily departures from Fort Lauderdale this summer, marking the largest operation in the airline’s history from the airport and more than 75% more daily flights than in 2025.


The new routes give South Florida customers continued nonstop options for leisure, business and visiting friends and family, while also ensuring convenient access to Fort Lauderdale’s beaches, cruise port and the broader South Florida region. The additional flying leverages JetBlue’s existing scale, crews and infrastructure in South Florida, where the airline continues to grow its focus city.


New Loyalty Status Match for Spirit Airlines Free Spirit Members


As JetBlue expands in Fort Lauderdale, the airline is also making it easier for eligible Spirit Airlines loyalty members to continue receiving recognition and perks.

Original: JetBlue Expands Fort Lauderdale Flying: 11 New Destinations, More Flights and Spirit Status Match

JetBlue Steps in to Help Stranded Spirit Customers with $99 Rescue Fares, Announces Plans to Add 11 Destinations From Fort LauderdaleMay 2, 2026 6:02 AM
Business Wire
Plan reflects JetBlue’s long-term commitment to South Florida and ensures continued connectivity for customers


JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced it is stepping in to support Spirit customers and team members affected by the airline’s shutdown.



JetBlue is offering $99 rescue fares to assist stranded travelers with immediate travel planned



JetBlue will cap fares to ensure affordable rebooking options remain available as more travelers look to rebook and demand increases.



JetBlue will significantly expand its presence at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) with 11 new cities to help backfill critical service and allow customers to continue to see a strong selection of flights and destinations.



JetBlue will extend its jumpseat agreement for Spirit pilots and flight attendants trying to get home and offer interview opportunities for open roles at JetBlue.



“This is really tough news for the thousands of Spirit team members affected, as well as the customers who were planning trips on Spirit,” said Joanna Geraghty, chief executive officer, JetBlue. “We got to know many of their crewmembers during our acquisition talks, and we’re thinking about everyone whose lives are being disrupted. We want to help fill the void created by this loss.”


$99 Rescue Fares to Help Stranded Travelers Get Home


To assist stranded Spirit customers with imminent travel, JetBlue is offering $99 one-way fares to individuals with proof of a valid Spirit itinerary for the same route (or co-located airport) for travel through Wednesday, May 6¹. These customers should call 1-800-JETBLUE to discuss their situation.


“With major operations in Fort Lauderdale and San Juan, we’re in a unique position to help Spirit customers get where they need to go and ensure flights remain affordable despite greater demand,” said Geraghty. “We understand how unsettling it may be for travelers who are suddenly unsure of what to do next.”


Beginning May 1, 2026, JetBlue will also cap all Blue Basic fares at $299 on JetBlue-operated nonstop routes to and from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) and San Juan, Puerto Rico’s Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) that were also operated by Spirit as of April.¹ The fare caps will apply to new itinerary purchases made through May 8, 2026, for travel between May 2, 2026 and May 8, 2026.


“While JetBlue always offers a great experience at an everyday low fare, the fare cap is designed to help customers avoid higher last-minute prices as more people book alternative travel.”


Fort Lauderdale and San Juan are both JetBlue focus cities, and JetBlue is the largest airline in both cities, offering an extensive route network. These two cities have also been among Spirit’s busiest markets, meaning travelers there may experience significant disruption from the sudden loss of service. JetBlue is stepping in where the need is greatest and where the airline has the scale and reach to provide meaningful support.


JetBlue will continue to monitor demand and operational capacity and may adjust based on customer needs.


Taking Care of Spirit Team Members


JetBlue also recognizes that some Spirit pilots and flight attendants may be stranded following the airline’s shutdown. To support crewmembers during this challenging time, JetBlue will extend its jumpseat agreement for the next two weeks, subject to space availability and limited to cabin seating. In addition, the airline plans to offer interview opportunities to qualified Spirit team members impacted by the shutdown.


Stepping Up Service in Fort Lauderdale


In addition to capping fares, JetBlue is adding new service to further expand options for customers in Fort Lauderdale. The additional flying builds on JetBlue’s role as Fort Lauderdale’s largest airline and reflects the carrier’s commitment to providing its award-winning service and competitive fares for South Florida travelers during a period of meaningful change in the market.


With this expansion, JetBlue is offering its largest ever schedule from Fort Lauderdale, ensuring customers continue to have access to the destinations they rely on, whether traveling for leisure, business, or visiting friends and family.


JetBlue expects to operate nearly 130 daily departures from Fort Lauderdale this summer, marking the largest operation in the airline’s history from the airport - over 75% more daily flights than 2025.


“South Florida is a key market for JetBlue, and we recognize this is a challenging moment for many travelers,” said Geraghty. “Our focus is on stepping up in the near term by adding service, maintaining connectivity, and keeping fares competitive, so customers can continue to travel with confidence.”


With this announcement, the airline will launch the following new JetBlue cities with nonstop service to Fort Lauderdale:

JetBlue is also adding additional flights on existing routes from Fort Lauderdale, including to Austin, Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, Dallas/Fort Worth, Raleigh-Durham, Santo Domingo, and Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic and will launch service on November 2, 2026 between Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) and Luis Munoz Marin International Airport (SJU).


Fort Lauderdale was JetBlue’s first destination, and today the airline already offers an extensive domestic and international network from FLL, serving destinations across the U.S., Latin America, and the Caribbean. The addition of 27 flights represents a meaningful increase in flying that leverages JetBlue’s existing scale, crews, and infrastructure in South Florida.


The growth reflects JetBlue’s broader network strategy and its ability to responsibly add flying where demand exists and where the airline can operate reliably. The expanded schedule also supports JetBlue’s JetForward strategy, which centers on building the best East Coast leisure network with Fort Lauderdale as a key gateway.


Capped fares are available starting May 1, 2026. The new routes and frequencies announced today will be available to book starting Monday evening, May 4, 2026, at jetblue.com and the JetBlue mobile app.

JetBlue Expands Transatlantic Service from Boston with New Flights to Barcelona Starting TodayApril 16, 2026 8:29 PM
Business Wire
New summer seasonal service strengthens JetBlue’s transatlantic network from Boston and connects New England with Barcelona


To celebrate the launch, limited one-way fares are available starting at $349 and €399 in Core and €1,699 and $1,799 in Mint for Boston–Barcelona route


JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU), New England’s leading leisure airline, today launched new summer seasonal service between Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport (BCN). The route expands JetBlue’s transatlantic flying and further positions Boston as an important European gateway and focus city, while showcasing the cultural and gastronomic richness of Barcelona, a region with its own distinct identity.


Known for its award-winning Mint® experience and elevated onboard service, JetBlue continues to redefine accessible premium travel across the Atlantic. The Boston–Barcelona route supports growing demand for leisure, business, and academic travel, strengthens ties between New England and Spain’s Catalonia region, and complements JetBlue’s broader European network. The airline will also launch seasonal service between Boston and Milan on May 11. Through Boston, customers can connect to JetBlue’s extensive network across the U.S., Latin America, and the Caribbean.


“The launch of service between Boston and Barcelona marks another exciting step in JetBlue’s transatlantic service,” said Marty St. George, president, JetBlue. “We’re excited to introduce our first service to Spain’s Catalonia region, connecting two dynamic global hubs and expanding our international reach. This route builds on our existing transatlantic presence from Boston and gives customers more choice and value when traveling between the U.S. and Europe.”


“From the Barcelona Air Route Development Committee (BARDC), formed by Aena, the Government of Catalonia, Barcelona City Council, and the Barcelona Chamber of Commerce, we have supported the launch of the Boston–Barcelona route. JetBlue’s arrival in the city marks an important milestone, connecting two global hubs and enhancing international connectivity,” said Vanessa Requena, Head of Management Office of JT Barcelona-El Prat Airport. “This new route strengthens economic, academic, and cultural ties between the two cities and responds to strong demand, with more than 1.5 million indirect passengers traveling between the U.S. and Barcelona, including over 59,000 between Boston and Barcelona in 2025.”


Connecting Communities Across the Atlantic: Boston and Barcelona


Barcelona becomes JetBlue’s second destination in Spain, following the launch of service to Madrid last year, and marks the airline’s seventh city served in Europe. Renowned for its art, iconic architecture, and coastal appeal, Barcelona will come alive this summer with a vibrant lineup of cultural events, concerts, and major sporting moments—further cementing its status as one of Europe’s premier destinations.


This new service strengthens access between Boston and Barcelona, building on long-standing cultural, academic, and business ties. Both cities are global hubs for innovation, life sciences, higher education, and the arts, and the route supports deeper collaboration between these two dynamic regions.


With the addition of Barcelona and upcoming service to Milan, JetBlue will operate up to nine daily nonstop flights between Boston and Europe this summer, highlighting its continued investment in building the East Coast’s leading leisure network as part of its JetForward strategy. From Boston, the airline offers more than 130 daily departures to over 65 destinations.

JetBlue Founder Neeleman Warns Airline Could Face BankruptcyApril 16, 2026 8:21 AM
IH Market News
David Neeleman, founder of JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:JBLU), said the airline may be heading toward bankruptcy, speaking during a discussion with pilots at Breeze Airways—his most recent aviation venture—on Thursday.Neeleman, a long-time airline entrepreneur who launched JetBlue in 1999 and led the company as CEO until 2007, outlined concerns about the carrier’s financial outlook in remarks that later circulated on X.“JetBlue’s in a really tough spot. I think I told you this last week, but when Jamie Baker, who is an analyst for JP Morgan, came out with his estimates for all the airlines based on $4.50 fuel, it showed JetBlue losing $1.3 billion this year. That would probably put them into bankruptcy, I would assume,” Neeleman said.He added that losses of that scale could push the airline’s debt to around $9 billion, up from current annual interest costs of more than $600 million to roughly $800 million.Neeleman also said that United Airlines has concerns over JetBlue’s debt burden and is not considering an acquisition. He noted that Southwest Airlines and Alaska Air Group have similarly shown no interest in pursuing a deal.“I want nothing but the best for JetBlue, but they’re in a very tough position right now,” Neeleman said.Neeleman has not been involved in JetBlue’s operations for nearly 18 years, having stepped down as CEO in May 2007 and later leaving his role as chairman in May 2008.JetBlue Airways stock price

Delta increases checked baggage fees amid rising fuel costsApril 7, 2026 9:38 AM
IH Market News
Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) said Tuesday it will raise fees for checked baggage on domestic flights and certain short-haul international routes, as carriers seek to manage higher jet fuel costs tied to escalating tensions in the Middle East.The move marks Delta’s first increase in domestic baggage fees in two years and comes after similar pricing adjustments by United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) and JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:JBLU).Airlines globally have been grappling with a sharp rise in fuel prices, which has pushed operating expenses higher and pressured profit margins. The surge in energy costs follows disruptions linked to tensions in the Middle East that have affected traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a major global oil transit route.Delta said that for tickets purchased on or after Wednesday, the fee for the first and second checked bags will rise by $10 each, while the cost of checking a third bag will increase by $50.Under the new pricing, the first checked bag will cost $45, the second $55, and the third bag $200.Delta Airlines stock priceUnited Airlines stock priceJetBlue Airways stock price

JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced new and enhanced benefits, including statement credits for companion passes and TrueBlue Travel, for the JetBlue Premier World Elite Mastercard®, issued by Barclays US Consumer Bank – delivering more value and flexibility for cardmembers coming this spring, all with no increase to the card’s annual fee.

“As we continue to engage with our cardmembers, JetBlue is focused on evolving our co-branded credit card benefits in ways that are both meaningful and relevant to how they travel and spend their time,” said Ed Pouthier, vice president of loyalty and personalization, JetBlue. “These Premier Card enhancements, from companion passes to new lifestyle partnerships to more generous travel rewards, build on our commitment to listen to customers and give them even more value with their card during travel and in everyday life.”


“We’re proud to keep raising the bar with JetBlue for Premier cardmembers,” said Doug Villone, head of cards and partnerships at Barclays US Consumer Bank. “These enhancements add more ways to get value – through companion pass statement credits, TrueBlue Travel statement credits, and a points redemption bonus – while helping customers progress toward Mosaic status. It’s another great example of our long-standing partnership with JetBlue and our shared focus on delivering premium experiences, both in the air and on the ground.”


New & Expanded Benefits


The JetBlue Premier Card, which launched last year, now introduces additional and enhanced benefits designed to deliver more utility, accelerate earnings and increase redemption value:



JetBlue Premier Companion Pass Statement Credits: Travel is better together. Cardmembers can earn a companion pass (up to $500 value) after spending $15,000 in a calendar year and unlock an additional companion pass (up to $1,500 value) after $75,000 in annual spend. Simply book and pay for your companion's trip on your reservation, apply the pass, and receive a statement credit after you both travel.



25-Tile Bonus: Get a head start on status. Cardmembers will receive a 25-tile bonus after the beginning of each calendar year, putting them halfway to Mosaic 1 and the premium perks that come with it.



TrueBlue Travel™ Statement Credits: Make more of every trip, beyond the flight. Cardmembers can earn up to $300 in annual statement credits when using the card for hotels, car rentals, cruises and more with TrueBlue Travel.



15% Redemption Rebate: Make your points go further. Cardmembers will receive 15% redemption rebate of their TrueBlue® points back on award flight redemptions, whether flying JetBlue or its partner airlines.



Benefits Cardmembers Know & Love


Premier cardmembers will continue to enjoy the benefits that already define JetBlue’s premium card, including enhanced airport experiences, global lounge access, a free first checked bag, anniversary bonus TrueBlue points and more.


Premier cardmembers with eligible fares also receive complimentary access for themselves and a guest to BlueHouse, JetBlue’s signature lounge experience designed to feel like a home away from home. Now open at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) Terminal 5, BlueHouse reimagines the traditional lounge with a warm, residential-inspired design rooted in the energy of New York City. With distinct spaces to work, relax and lounge, the space blends the comfort of a thoughtfully designed city apartment with JetBlue’s signature hospitality.


JetBlue will continue expanding BlueHouse with a second location opening this summer at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) Terminal C. BlueHouse Boston will reflect a similar residential approach, thoughtfully designed to capture the character of Boston, while bringing its elevated airport experience to one of JetBlue’s most important focus cities with a strong base of loyal customers and Premier cardmembers.


Additional Benefits Available


Through a new relationship with ClassPass, JetBlue is offering ClassPass credits coming later this spring. Premier cardmembers can enroll to receive up to 14 monthly credits to use on fitness classes and wellness experiences at studios, spas, salons, gyms and more nationwide.


Card Benefits Designed with Blue in Mind


The JetBlue Premier Card has an annual fee of $499 (and $150 for each authorized user), unchanged with the introduction of these upcoming benefits. Together, these updates underscore JetBlue’s ongoing investment in a co-branded credit card portfolio designed to meet the needs of all customers with a range of travel preferences and everyday lifestyles as they earn their way to Mosaic status.


Cardmembers will receive the new benefits, and have access to updated reward rules, upon launch later this spring.

Airline stocks jump as oil falls after Trump delays Iran strikesMarch 23, 2026 10:02 AM
IH Market News
Shares of major U.S. airlines moved sharply higher on Monday as crude oil prices declined after President Donald Trump announced that planned strikes on Iranian energy facilities would be delayed by five days.In pre-market trading, American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) rose 4.3%, while United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) gained 3.9%. Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) advanced 3.6%, JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU) climbed 3.2%, and Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV) increased 3.8% shortly before 8 a.m. on Monday.Trump said in a Truth Social post early Monday that he had instructed the Department of War to postpone the strikes following discussions between the United States and Iran over the past two days.“I am pleased to report that the United States of America, and the country of Iran, have had, over the last two days, very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East,” Trump wrote. “Based on the tenor and tone of these in depth, detailed, and constructive conversations, which will continue throughout the week, I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions.”Oil prices reacted immediately to the announcement, falling from above $98 per barrel to below $85 within minutes. Prices later recovered some losses and were trading above $92, still about 6.6% lower on the day.On Saturday, Trump had warned that the United States would target Iran’s power plants if Tehran failed to fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours. The threat came just one day after he spoke about winding down the conflict, which has now entered its fourth week.American Airlines stock priceUnited Airlines stock priceDelta Airlines stock priceJetBlue Airways stock priceSouthwest Airlines stock price

JetBlue updates Q1 2026 outlook following weather disruptionsMarch 17, 2026 9:33 AM
IH Market News
JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ:JBLU) has revised its financial outlook for the first quarter of 2026, pointing to operational disruptions caused by winter storms as well as higher fuel costs, which partially offset stronger-than-expected travel demand.The airline said two major winter weather events in January and February disrupted operations and reduced capacity compared with earlier forecasts. As a result, year-over-year capacity came in about 3.5 percentage points lower than initially expected. The disruptions also pushed up year-over-year cost per available seat mile excluding fuel by a similar margin.JetBlue now expects available seat miles to fall between 2.0% and 1.0% year over year in the first quarter, compared with its previous forecast of a 0.5% to 3.5% increase.Operating revenue per available seat mile is now projected to grow between 5.0% and 7.0% year over year, an improvement from the earlier guidance range of 0.0% to 4.0%.Meanwhile, cost per available seat mile excluding fuel is expected to rise between 6.5% and 7.5% year over year, exceeding the prior forecast of 3.5% to 5.5%.The company also revised its fuel price outlook, now expecting jet fuel to average between $3.01 and $3.06 per gallon, significantly higher than the previously projected range of $2.27 to $2.42.JetBlue noted that the weather-related disruptions provided roughly a two-percentage-point benefit to unit revenue during the quarter. Demand strengthened across its network during both peak and off-peak travel periods, with improvements recorded in both premium and core cabin offerings.Capital expenditures for the quarter are now expected to total about $175 million, lower than the earlier estimate of $200 million. The company’s first quarter concludes on March 31, 2026.JetBlue Airways stock price

‘Blue Sky’ Reaches New Altitude: JetBlue and United Begin Offering Sales Across Both AirlinesFebruary 10, 2026 2:00 PM
Business Wire
Starting this week, customers can book Blue Sky itineraries with cash or points and miles directly through JetBlue or United—unlocking broader access and a more seamless booking experience across both airlines.


JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) and United Airlines (Nasdaq: UAL) today announced the roll out of the next major customer benefit from their Blue Sky collaboration: beginning this week, travelers can start to purchase eligible itineraries operated by either airline directly on JetBlue.com, United.com and each airline’s mobile app.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260210620738/en/Photo courtesy of JetBlue and United.
For the first time, customers will be able to book flights on either airline using cash, points, or miles, giving travelers more freedom to shop and pay the way they prefer while accessing the strengths of either network. When searching for flights on either airline’s website or mobile app, customers will start to see more options from both carriers, making it easier to plan and book travel using the booking method of their choice. The airlines expect to later add the ability to book a single itinerary that includes flights operated by both JetBlue and United in the future.


This offering follows the successful introduction of reciprocal loyalty earning and redemption in 2025, which enabled TrueBlue® and MileagePlus® members to earn and redeem rewards across both carriers1. With revenue booking going live, JetBlue and United are delivering on their commitment to create a more connected, flexible, and seamless travel experience.


More Ways to Book, More Places to Go


With Blue Sky, customers can:



Purchase flights or redeem loyalty currency — TrueBlue points on JetBlue channels or MileagePlus miles on United channels — for eligible itineraries.



Easily book more flights in one place, taking advantage of JetBlue’s leading leisure markets and United’s extensive domestic and global footprint, including United Express®.



Plan travel more easily, with integrated shopping, clearer options, and more transparency around loyalty value.



Access more destinations through JetBlue Vacations, with United flights now available as part of Flight + Hotel packages (with cruise packages coming soon), unlocking bucket-list travel including Japan, Brazil, Italy, Greece and more for JetBlue Vacations customers.



"With cash bookings now available, Blue Sky is making it even easier for customers to plan and purchase travel across two leading networks,” Andrew Nocella, EVP and Chief Commercial Officer at United. “This milestone is another proof point of the value Blue Sky is bringing customers – in giving them the ability to book with cash, miles or points on either network, customers now have more choice, flexibility and a better overall booking experience when traveling to their favorite destinations.”


“This is an important step forward in our Blue Sky collaboration, expanding the choice and flexibility we offer customers when they travel,” said Marty St. George, president of JetBlue. “This move gives our members even more ability to earn and redeem points to exciting destinations around the world, while United customers gain access to JetBlue’s network across the Americas and Europe. Throughout the year, we will enhance the Blue Sky collaboration by introducing reciprocal loyalty perks on flights and expanding Paisly-powered vacation offerings, including United-supported products such as hotels, cruises, rental cars and travel insurance.”


More Enhancements on the Horizon


The airlines emphasized that revenue bookings mark another important milestone—but more customer benefits remain on the horizon as the collaboration continues rolling out in phases:



Reciprocal perks and benefits – arriving later this spring – including priority boarding, preferred and extra legroom seating, and same-day changes and standby.



United’s MileagePlus Travel transitioning to Paisly, LLC – arriving later in 2026 – expanding booking capabilities for MileagePlus members to add hotels, vacation packages, rental cars, cruises and travel insurance through Paisly’s travel services platform.



United’s planned growth for JFK– with JetBlue providing United access to slots for up to seven daily roundtrips at JFK’s new Terminal 6 as early as 2027.



Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply; taxes and fees may apply to award travel. More information for JetBlue customers is available at jetblue.com/jetblue-united, and for United MileagePlus members at united.com/bluesky.

For the Sixth Time, JetBlue Receives TPG Award Honoring its Domestic and International Core Experience


JetBlue (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announced it has once again been recognized by The Points Guy with a TPG Award for Best U.S. Economy Cabin, including for its transatlantic service. This is the sixth time JetBlue has won the coveted award and marks the airline’s ninth TPG Award since 2018. These competitive awards honor excellence across the travel industry as determined by The Points Guy’s esteemed editorial staff.


“This award reflects what today’s travelers care about most: real value, thoughtful innovation, and experiences that genuinely make travel better,” said Brian Kelly, Founder of The Points Guy. “The brands we recognize are not just keeping pace with a changing travel landscape - they’re setting the standard and helping travelers get more from their points, miles, and dollars every step of the journey.”


“Being recognized again by The Points Guy underscores the meaningful investments JetBlue has made to evolve our economy experience,” said Stephanie Evans Greene, senior vice president, marketing and brand, JetBlue. “By continuing to raise the bar on comfort, personalization and onboard connectivity, we’re focused on delivering an experience that our customers genuinely value.”


JetBlue’s industry-leading core experience offers seatback entertainment at every seat; free, fast and unlimited Fly-Fi broadband internet1; complimentary, brand-name snacks and drinks; and award-winning customer service. In 2025, JetBlue continued to build on this foundation with enhancements designed to deliver even more comfort, choice, and value:



EvenMore® Experience: JetBlue launched EvenMore, a reimagined premium economy experience, building on JetBlue’s extra-legroom seats with elevated perks such as dedicated overhead bin space, complimentary alcoholic beverages, a premium snack option, early boarding and priority security.


Connectivity Leadership: JetBlue continued to invest in its industry-leading free high-speed Fly-Fi onboard internet, announcing plans to become the first airline to adopt Amazon Leo’s advanced satellite connectivity technology to further strengthen its Wi-Fi connectivity, and still always for free.


Bringing a Core Experience to More Customers: In 2025, JetBlue expanded its core economy experience to more leisure and regional markets, adding new service to popular Florida, Caribbean, Latin American and European destinations. The experience is now enjoyed by more customers as they travel to their favorite warm weather destinations and to popular European vacation spots like Madrid.



Established in 2018, The Points Guy Awards has become the definitive annual benchmark for recognizing excellence in airlines, travel products, credit cards, and loyalty programs. Winners were selected through a rigorous process led by TPG’s editorial team of travel and loyalty experts, who were divided into panels based on their areas of authority. They then spent months evaluating nominees based on firsthand experience, industry expertise, and how well each program delivers real value to travelers. Select categories were further informed by in-house data analysis, ensuring the awards reflect both lived experience and measurable performance.

JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ: JBLU) today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025.


"2025 marked a meaningful step forward for JetBlue," said Joanna Geraghty, JetBlue’s chief executive officer. "In the first full year of JetForward, we made measurable progress improving reliability, strengthening customer satisfaction, and advancing our strategic priorities, even amid a challenging operating environment. While macroeconomic uncertainty impeded our return to profitability in 2025, we have proof points JetForward is working and positioning us for improved financial performance in 2026. I want to thank our 23,000 crewmembers, your commitment to caring for our customers and each other, despite many unexpected challenges we faced throughout the year, is truly inspiring."

Additionally, I am optimistic the constructive macroeconomic environment and industry capacity backdrop entering the year will support continued improvement," said Marty St. George, JetBlue’s president. "We have many exciting initiatives rolling out this year, including executing critical implementation milestones for our Blue Sky collaboration with United, opening our Boston lounge and rolling out domestic first class."

Note A - Non-GAAP Financial Measures


We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP; however, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures in this Earnings Release. Non-GAAP financial measures are financial measures that are derived from the consolidated financial statements, but that are not presented in accordance with GAAP. We present these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe they provide useful supplemental information that enables a meaningful comparison of our results to others in the airline industry and our prior year results. Investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies. The information below provides an explanation of each non-GAAP financial measure used in this Earnings Release and shows a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures used in this Earnings Release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.


With respect to JetBlue’s CASM Ex-Fuel (1) and Adjusted Operating Margin (2) Guidance, JetBlue is not able to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking measures where the quantification of certain excluded items reflected in the measure cannot be calculated or predicted at this time without unreasonable efforts. In these cases, the reconciling information that is unavailable includes a forward-looking range of financial performance measures beyond our control, such as fuel costs, which are subject to many economic and political factors beyond our control. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.


(1) CASM Ex-Fuel is a non-GAAP measure that excludes fuel, other non-airline operating expenses, and special items.


(2) Adjusted Operating Margin is a non-GAAP measure that excludes special items.


Operating expense per available seat mile, excluding fuel, other non-airline operating expenses, and special items ("CASM ex-fuel")


Our CASM for the relevant periods are summarized in the table below. We exclude aircraft fuel, operating expenses related to other non-airline businesses, such as Paisly (f/k/a JetBlue Travel Products) and JetBlue Technology Ventures (JBV), and special items from total operating expenses to determine Operating Expenses ex-fuel, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, and we exclude the same items from CASM to determine CASM ex-fuel, which is also a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe the impact of these special items distorts our overall trends and that our metrics are more comparable with the presentation of our results excluding such impact.


We believe Operating Expenses ex-fuel and CASM ex-fuel are useful for investors because they provide investors the ability to measure our financial performance excluding items that are beyond our control, such as fuel costs, which are subject to many economic and political factors, as well as items that are not related to the generation of an available seat mile, such as operating expense related to certain non-airline businesses and special items. We believe these non-GAAP measures are more indicative of our ability to manage airline costs and are more comparable to measures reported by other major airlines.


Special items for 2025 include severance expenses and other special items.


Special items for 2024 included Spirit-related costs, union contract costs, severance expenses, Embraer E190 fleet transition costs, and other special items.


The table below provides a reconciliation of our total operating expenses ("GAAP measure") to Operating Expenses ex-fuel, and our CASM to CASM ex-fuel for the periods presented.

Operating Expense, Operating Income (Loss), Operating Margin, Pre-tax Loss, Pre-tax Margin, Net Loss and Loss per Share, excluding Special Items, Gain (Loss) on Investments and Gain on Debt Extinguishments


Our GAAP results in the applicable periods were impacted by charges that were deemed special items.


Special items for 2025 include severance expenses and other special items.


Special items for 2024 included Spirit-related costs, union contract costs, severance expenses, Embraer E190 fleet transition costs, and other special items.


Certain gains and losses on our investments, net were also excluded from our 2025 and 2024 GAAP results. Additionally, the gain on debt extinguishments was also excluded from our 2024 GAAP results.


We believe the impact of these items distort our overall trends and that our metrics are more comparable with the presentation of our results excluding the impact of these items. The table below provides a reconciliation of our GAAP reported amounts to the non-GAAP amounts excluding the impact of these items for the periods presented.
