Forward-Looking Information
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Report") contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Report are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as "expects," "plans," "intends," "anticipates," "indicates," "remains," "believes," "estimates," "forecast," "guidance," "outlook," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "goals," "targets" or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Additionally, forward-looking statements include statements that do not relate solely to historical facts, such as statements which identify uncertainties or trends, discuss the possible future effects of current known trends or uncertainties, or which indicate that the future effects of known trends or uncertainties cannot be predicted, guaranteed, or assured. Forward-looking statements contained in this Report include, without limitation, statements regarding our outlook and future results of operations and financial position, our business strategy and plans for future operations, our sustainability initiatives, the impact of industry or other macroeconomic trends affecting our business, seasonality, and our expectations regarding the wind-down of our Northeast Alliance with American Airlines Group Inc. (the "NEA") and the related impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and are based on information currently available to us. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements due to many factors, including, without limitation, the risk associated with the execution of our strategic operating plans in the near-term and long-term; our extremely competitive industry; risks related to the long-term nature of our fleet order book; volatility in fuel prices and availability of fuel; increased maintenance costs associated with fleet age; costs associated with salaries, wages and benefits; risks associated with a potential material reduction in the rate of interchange reimbursement fees; risks associated with doing business internationally; our reliance on high daily aircraft utilization; our dependence on the New York metropolitan market; risks associated with extended interruptions or disruptions in service at our focus cities; risks associated with airport expenses; risks associated with seasonality and weather; our reliance on a limited number of suppliers for our aircraft, engines, and our Fly-Fi® product; risks related to new or increased tariffs imposed on commercial aircraft and related parts imported from outside the United States; the outcome of legal proceedings with respect to the NEA and our wind-down of the NEA; risks associated with cybersecurity and privacy, including information security breaches; heightened regulatory requirements concerning data security compliance; risks associated with reliance on, and potential failure of, automated systems to operate our business; our inability to attract and retain qualified crewmembers; our being subject to potential unionization, work stoppages, slowdowns or increased labor costs; reputational and business risk from an accident or incident involving our aircraft; risks associated with damage to our reputation and the JetBlue brand name; our significant amount of fixed obligations and the ability to service such obligations; our substantial indebtedness and impact on our ability to meet future financing needs; financial risks associated with credit card processors; risks associated with seeking short-term additional financing liquidity; failure to realize the full value of intangible or long-lived assets, causing us to record impairments; risks associated with disease outbreaks or environmental disasters affecting travel behavior; compliance with environmental laws and regulations, which may cause us to incur substantial costs; the impacts of federal budget constraints or federally imposed furloughs; impact of global climate change and legal, regulatory or market response to such change; increasing attention to, and evolving expectations regarding, environmental, social and governance matters; changes in government regulations in our industry; acts of war or terrorism; and changes in global economic conditions or an economic downturn leading to a continuing or accelerated decrease in demand for air travel. It is routine for our internal projections and expectations to change as the year or each quarter in the year progresses, and therefore it should be clearly understood that the internal projections, beliefs, and assumptions upon which we base our expectations may change prior to the end of each quarter or year.
Given the risks and uncertainties surrounding forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on these statements. You should understand that many important factors, in addition to those discussed or incorporated by reference in this Report, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Further information concerning these and other factors is contained in JetBlue's filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including but not limited to in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K"). In light of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events discussed in this Report might not occur. Our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Report. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
JetBlue Airways Corporation ("JetBlue") provides air transportation services across the United States, the Caribbean, Latin America, Canada, and Europe. Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JetBlue and our subsidiaries which are collectively referred to as "we" or the "Company." All majority-owned subsidiaries are consolidated on a line-by-line basis, with all intercompany transactions and balances being eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our 2023 audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K").
These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). In our opinion, they reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, that are necessary to present fairly the results for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations; however, we believe that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
We have reclassified certain prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.
Note 2 - Revenue Recognition
The Company categorizes revenue recognized from contracts with its customers by revenue source as we believe it best depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flow. The following table provides revenue recognized by revenue source for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):
Three Months Ended March 31,

Other revenue47 46 
Total operating revenue$2,209 $2,328 
TrueBlue® is our customer loyalty program designed to reward and recognize our customers. TrueBlue® points earned from ticket purchases are recorded as a reduction to Passenger travel within passenger revenue. Amounts presented in Loyalty revenue - air transportation represent revenue recognized when TrueBlue® points have been redeemed and travel has occurred. Loyalty revenue within other revenue is primarily comprised of the non-air transportation elements from the sale of TrueBlue® points.

Contract Liabilities
Our contract liabilities primarily consist of ticket sales for which transportation has not yet been provided, unused credits available to customers, and outstanding loyalty points available for redemption (in millions):
March 31, 2024December 31, 2023
Air traffic liability - passenger travel$1,354 $1,099 
Air traffic liability - loyalty program (air transportation)1,076 1,072 
Deferred revenue (1)
472 487 
Total$2,902 $2,658 
    
(1) Deferred revenue is included within other accrued liabilities and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recognized passenger revenue of $834 million and $858 million, respectively, which was included in passenger travel liability at the beginning of the respective periods.
The Company elected the practical expedient that allows entities to not disclose the amount of the remaining transaction price and its expected timing of recognition for passenger tickets if the contract has an original expected duration of one year or less or if certain other conditions are met. We elected to apply this practical expedient to our contract liabilities relating to passenger travel and ancillary services as our tickets or any related passenger credits expire generally one year from the date of booking.
TrueBlue® points are combined into one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of points that were part of the air traffic liability balance at the beginning of the period as well as points that were issued during the period.
The table below presents the activity of the current and non-current air traffic liability for our loyalty program, and includes points earned and sold to participating companies for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):

The timing of our TrueBlue® point redemptions can vary; however, the majority of points are redeemed within approximately three years of the date of issuance.
Note 3 - Long-term Debt, Short-term Borrowings and Finance Lease Obligations
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we made principal payments of $58 million on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations.
At March 31, 2024, we had pledged aircraft, engines, other equipment, and facilities with a net book value of $6.4 billion as security under various financing arrangements.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

We have financed certain aircraft with Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates ("EETCs"). One of the benefits of this structure is being able to finance several aircraft at one time, rather than individually. The structure of EETC financing is that we create pass-through trusts in order to issue pass-through certificates. The proceeds from the issuance of these certificates are then used to purchase equipment notes which are issued by us and are secured by our aircraft. These trusts meet the definition of a variable interest entity ("VIE"), as defined in Topic 810, Consolidation of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Codification, and must be considered for consolidation in our financial statements. Our assessment of our EETCs considers both quantitative and qualitative factors including the purpose for which these trusts were established and the nature of the risks in each. The main purpose of the trust structure is to enhance the creditworthiness of our debt obligation through certain bankruptcy protection provisions and liquidity facilities, and also to lower our total borrowing cost. We concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary in these trusts because our involvement in them is limited to principal and interest payments on the related notes, the trusts were not set up to pass along variability created by credit risk to us, and the likelihood of our defaulting on the notes. Therefore, we have not consolidated these trusts in our financial statements.
2024 Sale-Leaseback Transactions
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we entered into $332 million of sale-leaseback transactions. These transactions did not qualify as sales for accounting purposes. The assets associated with these transactions remain on our consolidated balance sheets within property and equipment and the related liabilities under the lease are classified within debt and finance leases obligations. These transactions are treated as cash from financing activities on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Short-term Borrowings
Citibank Line of Credit
On October 21, 2022, JetBlue entered into the $600 million Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the "Facility"), among JetBlue, Citibank N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on SOFR, plus a margin of 2.00% per annum, or another rate (at JetBlue's election) based on certain market interest rates, plus a margin of 1.00% per annum, in each case with a floor of 0%. The Facility is secured by spare parts, aircraft, simulators, and certain other assets as permitted thereunder. The Facility includes covenants that require us to maintain certain minimum balances in unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, and unused commitments available under revolving credit facilities. In addition, the covenants restrict our ability to, among other things, dispose of certain collateral, or merge, consolidate, or sell assets. On October 17, 2023, JetBlue further amended the Facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date to October 21, 2025.
As of and for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under the Facility.
Morgan Stanley Line of Credit
We have a revolving line of credit with Morgan Stanley for up to approximately $200 million. This line of credit is secured by a portion of our investment securities held by Morgan Stanley and the amount available to us under this line of credit may vary accordingly. This line of credit bears interest at a floating rate based upon LIBOR (or such replacement index as the bank shall determine from time to time in accordance with the terms of the agreement), plus a margin. As of and for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under this line of credit.
2022 $3.5 Billion Senior Secured Bridge Facility
JetBlue entered into a Second Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (the "Commitment Letter"), dated July 28, 2022, with Goldman Sachs Bank USA; BofA Securities, Inc.; Bank of America, N.A.; BNP Paribas; Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch; Credit Suisse Loan Funding LLC; Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank; Natixis, New York Branch; Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation; and MUFG Bank, Ltd. (collectively, the "Commitment Parties"), pursuant to which the Commitment Parties committed to provide a senior secured bridge facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $3.5 billion to finance the acquisition of Spirit Airlines, Inc. ("Spirit") under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). The Commitment Letter was terminated on March 4, 2024. Prior to its termination, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under this facility. Please refer to Note 12 for additional details on the termination of the Merger Agreement.

Note 4 - Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from restricted stock units, the crewmember stock purchase plan, convertible notes, warrants issued under various federal payroll support programs, and any other potentially dilutive instruments using the treasury stock and if-converted method. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share amounts were 3.8 million and 1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
The following table shows how we computed basic and diluted loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (dollars and share data in millions):

Note 5 - Crewmember Retirement Plan
We sponsor a retirement savings 401(k) defined contribution plan (the "Plan"), covering our U.S. and Puerto Rico crewmembers, where we match 100% of our eligible crewmember's contributions up to 5% of their eligible wages. Employer contributions vest after three years of service and are measured from a crewmember's hire date. Crewmembers are vested immediately in their voluntary contributions.
Certain Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") licensed crewmembers received a discretionary contribution of 3% of eligible compensation, which we refer to as Retirement Advantage. As of January 2024, the Retirement Advantage program ended and these licensed Crewmembers now receive a discretionary contribution of 8% of eligible compensation, which we refer to as Retirement Non-elective Licensed Crewmember contributions. System Controllers also receive a Company discretionary contribution of 5% of eligible compensation, referred to as Retirement Non-elective Crewmember contributions. The Company’s non-elective contributions vests after three years of service.
Our Pilots receive a non-elective Company contribution of 16% of eligible compensation per the terms of the finalized collective bargaining agreement between JetBlue and the Air Line Pilots Association ("ALPA"), in lieu of the above 401(k) Company matching contribution, Retirement Non-elective, and Retirement Advantage contributions. The Company's non-elective contribution of eligible Pilot compensation vests after three years of service.
Total 401(k) company match and non-elective crewmember contribution expense was $66 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
We utilize several credit card processors to process our ticket sales. Our agreements with these processors do not contain covenants, but do generally allow the processor to withhold cash reserves to protect the processor from potential liability for tickets purchased, but not yet used for travel. While we currently do not have any collateral requirements related to our credit card processors, we may be required to issue collateral to our credit card processors, or other key business partners, in the future.
As of March 31, 2024, we had $59 million in restricted cash assets serving as collateral for letters of credit relating to a certain number of our leases, which will expire at the end of the related lease terms. We also had a $65 million letter of credit relating to our 5% ownership in JFK Millennium Partner LLC, a private entity that will finance, develop, and operate John F. Kennedy International Airport ("JFK") Terminal 6. The letters of credit are included in restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, we had $32 million cash pledged primarily related to our workers' compensation insurance policies and other business partner agreements, which will expire according to the terms of the related policies or agreements.

Labor Unions and Non-Unionized Crewmembers
As of March 31, 2024, 52% of our full-time equivalent crewmembers were represented by labor unions. The pilot group, which represents 22% of our full-time equivalent crewmembers, is covered by a collective bargaining agreement that have begun initial negotiations in April 2024. Our pilots are represented by ALPA. Our inflight crewmembers and flight instructors are represented by the Transport Workers Union of America ("TWU"); our other frontline crewmembers do not have third party representation.
ALPA
In January 2023, JetBlue pilots approved a two-year contract extension effective March 1, 2023, which included a ratification payment and adjustments to paid-time-off accruals resulting from pay rate increases of $95 million. This was recorded as an expense within special items in the first quarter of 2023.
TWU
On July 14, 2022, TWU filed a representation application with the National Mediation Board ("NMB") seeking an election among the 35 pilot instructors (called "Flight Instructors"). JetBlue disputed TWU’s application alleging that "Flight Instructors" do not constitute a craft or class. On October 26, 2023, the NMB notified the participants that it rejected JetBlue’s argument and ordered an election. The Flight Instructors voted for TWU representation. Contract negotiations have not yet begun.
Non-Unionized Crewmembers
We enter into individual employment agreements with each of our non-unionized FAA-licensed crewmembers, which include dispatchers, technicians, inspectors, and air traffic controllers. Each employment agreement is for a term of five years and automatically renews for an additional five years unless either the crewmember or we elect not to renew it by giving at least 90 days' notice before the end of the relevant term. Pursuant to these agreements, these crewmembers can only be terminated for cause. In the event of a downturn in our business that would require a reduction in work hours, we are obligated to pay these crewmembers a guaranteed level of income and to continue their benefits if they do not obtain other aviation employment.
Legal Matters
Occasionally, we are involved in various claims, lawsuits, regulatory examinations, investigations, and other legal matters involving suppliers, crewmembers, customers, and governmental agencies, arising, for the most part, in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of litigation and other legal matters is always uncertain. The Company believes it has valid defenses to the legal matters currently pending against it, is defending itself vigorously, and has recorded accruals determined in accordance with GAAP, where appropriate. In making a determination regarding accruals, using available information, we evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in legal or regulatory proceedings to which we are a party and record a loss contingency when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These subjective determinations are based on the status of such legal or regulatory proceedings, the merits of our defenses, and consultation with legal counsel. Actual outcomes of these legal and regulatory proceedings may materially differ from our current estimates. It is possible that resolution of one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened could result in losses material to our condensed consolidated results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.
To date, none of these types of litigation matters, most of which are typically covered by insurance, has had a material impact on our operations or financial condition. We have insured and continue to insure against most of these types of claims. A judgment on any claim not covered by, or in excess of, our insurance coverage could materially adversely affect our condensed consolidated results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.
As previously disclosed, in July 2020, JetBlue and American Airlines Group Inc. ("American") entered into the Northeast Alliance (the "NEA"), which was designed to optimize our respective networks at JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, and Boston Logan International Airport. On September 21, 2021, the United States Department of Justice, along with the Attorneys General of six states and the District of Columbia filed suit against JetBlue and American seeking to enjoin the NEA, alleging that it violated Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The court issued a decision on May 19, 2023, permanently enjoining the NEA, and shortly thereafter we initiated a wind down of the NEA. On July 28, 2023, the court issued its Final Judgement and Order Entering Permanent Injunction, which took effect on August 18, 2023 (the "Final Injunction"). The wind down of the NEA is substantially complete, but remaining impacts could require us to incur additional costs and therefore have an impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

In December 2022 and February 2023, four putative class actions lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York and the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, respectively, alleging that the NEA violates Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act. Among other things, plaintiffs seek monetary damages on behalf of a putative class of direct purchasers of airline tickets from JetBlue and American and, depending on the specific case, other airlines on flights to or from NEA airports from July 16, 2020 through the present. Plaintiffs in these actions also seek to enjoin the NEA. JetBlue believes these lawsuits are without merit and has moved to dismiss the claims.

Note 7 - Fair Value
Under Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, (the "Codification"), disclosures are required about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped is established, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
Level 1 - observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, and other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly for the asset or liability; or
Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following is a listing of our assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and where they are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in millions):

Cash Equivalents
Our cash equivalents include money market securities and time deposits which are readily convertible into cash, have maturities of three months or less when purchased, and are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable. The money market securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy and recorded within cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets.

Available-for-Sale Investment Securities
Our available-for-sale investment securities include investments such as time deposits, commercial paper, and convertible debt securities. The fair value of time deposits and commercial paper is based on observable inputs in non-active markets, which are therefore classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The fair value of convertible debt securities is based on unobservable inputs and is classified as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Aircraft Fuel Derivatives
Our aircraft fuel derivatives include call spread options which are not traded on public exchanges. Their fair values are determined using a market approach based on inputs that are readily available from public markets for commodities and energy trading activities; therefore, they are classified as Level 2 inputs. The data inputs are combined into qualitative models and processes to generate forward curves and volatility related to the specific terms of the underlying hedge contracts. Aircraft fuel derivatives are included in prepaid expenses and other within current assets of our consolidated balance sheets.
Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities
Our held-to-maturity investment securities consist of corporate bonds, which are stated at amortized cost. If the corporate bonds were measured at fair value, they would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based on quoted prices in active markets for similar securities.
We do not intend to sell these investment securities. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our held-to-maturity investment securities were as follows (in millions):

Note 9 - Financial Derivative Instruments and Risk Management
As part of our risk management techniques, we periodically purchase over the counter energy derivative instruments to manage our exposure to the effect of changes in the price of aircraft fuel. Prices for the underlying commodities have historically been highly correlated to aircraft fuel, making derivatives of them effective at providing short-term protection against sharp increases in average fuel prices. We do not hold or issue any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Aircraft Fuel Derivatives
We attempt to obtain cash flow hedge accounting treatment for each fuel derivative that we enter into. This treatment is provided for under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB Codification which allows for gains and losses on the effective portion of qualifying hedges to be deferred until the underlying planned aircraft fuel consumption occurs, rather than recognizing the gains and losses on these instruments into earnings during each period they are outstanding.
For the effective portion of hedges, when aircraft fuel is consumed and the related derivative contract settles, any gain or loss previously recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized in aircraft fuel expense. All cash flows related to our fuel hedging derivatives are classified as operating cash flows.
Ineffectiveness occurs, in certain circumstances, when the change in the total fair value of the derivative instrument differs from the change in the value of our expected future cash outlays for the purchase of aircraft fuel. If a hedge does not qualify for hedge accounting, the periodic changes in its fair value are recognized in interest income and other.
Our current approach to fuel hedging is to enter into hedges on a discretionary basis. We view our hedge portfolio as a form of insurance to help mitigate the impact of price volatility and protect us against severe spikes in oil prices, when possible.
The following table illustrates the approximate hedged percentages of our projected fuel usage by quarter as of March 31, 2024 related to our outstanding fuel hedging contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

Any outstanding derivative instrument exposes us to credit loss in connection with our fuel contracts in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to our agreements; however, we do not expect that any of our counterparties will fail to meet their obligations. The amount of such credit exposure is generally the fair value of our outstanding contracts for which we

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

are in a receivable position. To manage credit risks we select counterparties based on credit assessments, limit our overall exposure to any single counterparty, and monitor the market position with each counterparty. Some of our agreements require cash deposits from either JetBlue or our counterparty if market risk exposure exceeds a specified threshold amount.
We have master netting arrangements with our counterparties allowing us the right of offset to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions. The financial derivative instrument agreements we have with our counterparties may require us to fund all, or a portion of, outstanding loss positions related to these contracts prior to their scheduled maturities. The amount of collateral posted, if any, is periodically adjusted based on the fair value of the hedge contracts. Our policy is to offset the liabilities represented by these contracts with any cash collateral paid to the counterparties.
There were no offsetting derivative instruments as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Note 12 - Termination of Merger Agreement with Spirit
The Merger Agreement
As previously disclosed, on July 28, 2022, JetBlue entered into the Merger Agreement with Spirit and Sundown Acquisition Corp., formerly a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of JetBlue ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which and subject to the terms and conditions therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into Spirit, with Spirit continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger").
On March 1, 2024, JetBlue, Spirit and Merger Sub entered into a Termination Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate the Merger Agreement, effective immediately, subject to limited exceptions related to JetBlue’s previously agreed indemnification obligations. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, JetBlue agreed to pay the $69 million breakup fee on March 5, 2024, which was recorded in special items on the consolidated statement of operations. The parties also agreed to release each other from claims, demands, damages, actions, causes of action and liability relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein or thereby.
In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, on a monthly basis between January 2023 and February 2024, JetBlue paid to the holders of record of outstanding Spirit shares an amount in cash equal to $0.10 per Spirit share (such amount, the "Additional Prepayment Amount", and each such monthly payment, an "Additional Prepayment"). During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, JetBlue made an aggregate of $22 million in Additional Prepayments to Spirit shareholders resulting in a total prepayment of $425 million. These Additional Prepayments have been written off, in addition to the $25 million reimbursement payment to Spirit in connection with the Frontier transaction costs as a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement. The write off is recorded in special items on the consolidated statement of operations for the period ending March 31, 2024.
In the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $134 million related to the tax impact of the Spirit transaction costs.
Refer to Note 3 for further detail of the $3.5 billion Senior Secured Bridge Facility commitment to fund the purchase of Spirit, which was terminated concurrently with the termination of the Merger Agreement.
Legal Proceedings Related to the Merger
As previously disclosed, in March 2023, the U.S. Department of Justice, along with the Attorneys General of six states and the District of Columbia, filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts against JetBlue and Spirit, seeking a permanent injunction preventing the Merger (the "Government Merger Lawsuit"). The trial commenced on October 31, 2023 and on January 17, 2024, the Court issued its Final Judgment and Order granting the plaintiffs' request for a permanent injunction of the Merger. On January 19, 2024, JetBlue and Spirit filed a Notice of Appeal with respect to the January 17, 2024 Final Judgment and Order and the Court’s corresponding January 16, 2024 Findings of Facts and Conclusion of Law, which the parties then moved to dismiss following their entrance into the Termination Agreement. On March 5, 2024, the Court approved JetBlue and Spirit's voluntary dismissal of the appeal.
As also previously disclosed, on November 3, 2022, 25 individual consumers filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against JetBlue and Spirit seeking to enjoin the Merger, alleging that it violates Section 7 of the Clayton Act (the "Private Merger Lawsuit"). On March 29, 2023, the Private Merger Lawsuit was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The trial in the Private Merger Lawsuit was stayed pending resolution of the Government Merger Lawsuit. Following the execution of the Termination Agreement, JetBlue and Spirit moved to dismiss all proceedings related to the Private Merger Lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and The United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. The motions to dismiss remain pending at this time.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs involving risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our 2023 Form 10-K and in Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" and other parts of this Report.
OVERVIEW
First Quarter 2024 Results
In the first quarter of 2024, we experienced improved operational reliability and healthy peak demand. Despite industry cost pressures, we continue to execute on our controllable cost initiatives.
Our first quarter highlights include as follows:
•First quarter 2024 system capacity decreased by 2.7% compared to the first quarter of 2023.

•Operating expense for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 14.0% year-over-year to $2.9 billion.
•Operating expense, excluding special items for the first quarter of 2024 decreased 3.7%(1) year-over-year.
•Operating expense per available seat mile ("CASM") for the first quarter of 2024 increased by 17.1% year-over-year to 17.95 cents compared to the first quarter of 2023.
•Our operating expense for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 included the effects of special items. Excluding aircraft fuel, special items, and operating expenses related to our non-airline businesses, our operating expense (1) increased by 4.2% to $1.7 billion year-over-year.
•Excluding fuel, special items, and operating expenses related to our non-airline businesses, our cost per available seat mile ("CASM ex-fuel")(1) increased by 7.1% to 10.57 cents in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023.
•For the first quarter of 2024 and 2023, our reported loss per share was $2.11 and $0.58, respectively. Excluding special items, our adjusted loss per share (1) for the first quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $0.43 and $0.34, respectively.
Recent Developments
Network
During the quarter, we expanded our presence in the transatlantic market with new seasonal service to Dublin, Ireland from New York and Boston, and launched daily nonstop service to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport from Boston. We also began service to Tallahassee, Florida.
We announced we will be moving a number of routes and markets from daily service to seasonal service to free up aircraft for increased frequency and relevance in markets that are more profitable. We have actioned to leave Baltimore, Maryland; Bogota, Colombia; Burlington, Vermont; Kansas City, Missouri; Lima, Peru; Newburgh, New York; and Quito, Ecuador, to better utilize our aircraft in other markets.
Customer Experience
We announced new and improved signature perks for Mosaic program members, including dedicated phone support, greater access to the Mint cabin, and the ability to gift Mosaic 1 status, further expanding the ways our most loyal customers can be awarded.
We announced new Mint® product offerings expected to launch in Spring 2024, including new amenity partners, menu changes and entertainment options.
We launched preferred seating on select routes, giving customers more options to choose the seat that best aligns with their preferences.

Pratt & Whitney
In July 2023, Pratt & Whitney, a division of Raytheon Technologies, announced the requirement, mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), for removal of certain engines for inspection due to contaminated powdered metal used in high-pressure turbine disks on the V2500, PW1100G, and PW1500G engine types. These engines power our Airbus A320, Airbus A220 and Airbus A321neo fleets. The contaminated powdered metal affects engines manufactured between October 2015 and September 2021. Engines are now required to be inspected after they have reached a reduced number of cycles dependent on the fleet type. As of March 31, 2024, we had nine aircraft grounded for required inspection. The Company currently expects each removed engine to take up to 360 days to complete a shop visit and return to a serviceable condition and expects an average of 11 aircraft out of service throughout the year.
In 2023, we reached a confidential settlement agreement with Pratt & Whitney, which was intended to address damages incurred by us in 2023 due to the grounding of the affected engines. Into 2024 and beyond, we expect to have a certain number of engines grounded and, therefore, will continue to assess the resulting impact on our future capacity plans. We are currently working with Pratt & Whitney on compensation arrangements.
While we are working with Pratt & Whitney to secure additional compensation, the full impact of the removal and any potential remediation steps remains uncertain. The engine groundings, including but not limited to a reduction in capacity, could adversely impact our operations and financial results.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 vs. 2023
Overview
We reported a net loss of $716 million, operating loss of $719 million and an operating margin of (32.6)% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. This compares to net loss of $192 million, an operating loss of $242 million and an operating margin of (10.4)% for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Our loss per share was $2.11 for the first quarter of 2024 compared to a loss per share of $0.58 for the same period in 2023. Net loss increased $524 million year-over-year primarily due to the write off of Spirit-related costs as a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement discussed in Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.
Our reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 included the effects of special items. Adjusting for these one-time items, our adjusted net loss (1) was $145 million, adjusted operating loss (1) was $157 million, adjusted operating margin (1) was (7.1)%, and adjusted loss per share (1) was $0.43 for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Our reported results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 included the effects of special items. Adjusting for these one-time items, our adjusted net loss (1) was $111 million, adjusted operating loss (1) was $130 million, adjusted operating margin (1) was (5.6)%, and adjusted loss per share (1) was $0.34 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
On-time performance, as defined by the DOT, is arrival within 14 minutes of scheduled arrival time. In the first quarter of 2024, our systemwide on-time performance was 70.9% compared to 70.4% for the same period in 2023. Our completion factor decreased to 98.7% in the first quarter of 2024 from 98.8% in the same period in 2023.

Aircraft fuel decreased by $160 million, or 20.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. Over the same period, the average fuel price decreased by 17.3% to $2.97 per gallon and fuel consumption decreased by 3.8%, or 9 million gallons.
Salaries, Wages and Benefits
Salaries, wages and benefits increased $82 million, or 11.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 driven by wage rate increases. The wage rate increase was primarily due to the new pilot union contract effective March 1, 2023, which included an initial pay rate increase of 14% and an additional 3% pay rate increase effective August 2023.
Aircraft Rent
Aircraft rent decreased $5 million, or 16.1%, in the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, primarily due to fewer leases for Airbus A320 aircraft and Embraer E190 aircraft.
Maintenance, Materials, and Repairs
Maintenance, materials, and repairs decreased $44 million, or 24.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due to timing and the type of maintenance events that occurred during the period.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses consist of the following categories: outside services, airport expenses (including expenses related to ground handling, skycap, security, and catering services), personnel expenses, professional and legal fees, onboard supplies, shop and office supplies, bad debts, communication costs and taxes other than payroll and fuel taxes.
Other operating expenses increased $22 million, or 6.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due in part to information technology service costs, outside services, and personnel expenses.
Special Items
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, special items included the following:
•$532 million relating to Spirit-related costs;
•$15 million relating to voluntary opt-out costs; and
•$15 million relating to Embraer E190 fleet transition costs.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, special items included the following:
•$95 million relating to union contract costs; and
•$17 million relating to Spirit-related costs.

We expect our operating results to significantly fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter in the future as a result of various factors, many of which are outside of our control. For example, air traffic controller shortages in the Northeast and Florida continue to cause disruptions in the industry, resulting in the FAA waiving the minimum usage requirement and permitting us to voluntarily turn in up to 10% of our slots in the New York area to help protect our operations. Even with the flight cutbacks, we experienced and continue to expect challenges in the operating environment. Consequently, we believe quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful; you should not rely on our results for any one quarter as an indication of our future performance. Except for uncertainty related to the cost of aircraft fuel, we expect our expenses to continue to increase as we acquire additional aircraft, as our fleet ages, and as we expand the frequency of flights in existing markets as well as enter into new markets.
Operational challenges impacted our business in the first quarter of 2024. These challenges include disruptions in our supply chains and those of our business partners, leading to aircraft delivery delays. Additionally, reliability challenges with some of our aircraft engines using new technology have led to grounded aircraft events. These challenges have resulted - and are expected to continue to result - in flight delays and cancellations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The airline business is capital intensive. Our ability to successfully execute our growth plans is largely dependent on the continued availability of capital on attractive terms. In addition, our ability to successfully operate our business depends on maintaining sufficient liquidity. We believe we have adequate resources from a combination of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities on hand, and available lines of credit. Additionally, our unencumbered assets could be an additional source of liquidity, if necessary.
At March 31, 2024, we had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term marketable securities of approximately $1.7 billion, which we believe will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Report, and we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs with our projected cash from operations, available lines of credit and debt financing.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We believe a healthy liquidity position is a crucial element of our ability to weather any part of the economic cycle while continuing to execute on our plans for profitable growth and increased returns. Our goal is to continue to be diligent with our liquidity, maintain financial flexibility, and be prudent with capital spending.
Analysis of Cash Flows
Operating Activities
We rely primarily on operating cash flows to provide working capital for current and future operations. Cash flows from operating activities were $204 million and $405 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in operating cash flow is driven by the change in working capital and Spirit merger termination.
Investing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, flight equipment capital expenditures included $386 million related to the purchase of aircraft and spare engines as well as aircraft interior modifications. Flight capital expenditures also included $20 million in spare part purchases. Other property and equipment capital expenditures included ground equipment purchases and facilities improvements for $21 million. Investing activities for the current year period also included $93 million in net proceeds from investment securities, $39 million in pre-delivery deposit payments for future aircraft deliveries and $22 million in Spirit shareholder payments.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, flight equipment capital expenditures included $131 million related to the purchase of aircraft and spare engines as well as aircraft interior modifications. Flight capital expenditures also included $10 million in spare part purchases. Other property and equipment capital expenditures included ground equipment purchases and facilities improvements for $31 million. Investing activities also included $165 million in net proceeds from investment securities and $33 million in Spirit shareholder payments.
Financing Activities
Financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily consisted of proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions of $332 million partially offset by $58 million in payments on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations.
Financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily consisted of proceeds from a sale-leaseback transaction of $38 million, offset by $109 million in payments on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations.
Working Capital
We had a working capital deficit of $1.9 billion and $1.5 billion at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Our working capital deficit increased by $390 million due to several factors, including an increase in air traffic liability and other accrued liabilities.
We expect to meet our obligations as they become due through available cash, investment securities, and internally generated funds, supplemented, as necessary, by financing activities which may be available to us. However, we cannot predict what the effect on our business might be from future developments related to the extremely competitive environment in which we operate, or from events beyond our control, such as volatile fuel prices, economic conditions, weather-related disruptions, airport infrastructure challenges, the spread of infectious diseases, the impact of other airline bankruptcies, restructurings or consolidations, U.S. or international military actions, acts of terrorism, or other external geopolitical events and conditions. We believe there is sufficient liquidity available to us to meet our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Committed expenditures for our aircraft and spare engines include estimated amounts for contractual price escalations and pre-delivery deposits. We expect to meet our pre-delivery deposit requirements for our aircraft by paying cash or by using short-term borrowing facilities for deposits generally required six to 24 months prior to delivery. Any pre-delivery deposits paid by the issuance of notes are fully repaid at the time of delivery of the related aircraft.
Depending on market conditions, we anticipate using a mix of cash and debt financing for aircraft scheduled for delivery in 2024. Although we believe debt and/or lease financing should be available to us, we cannot give any assurance that we will be able to secure financing on attractive terms, if at all. To the extent we cannot secure financing on terms we deem attractive, we may be required to pay in cash, further modify our aircraft acquisition plans, or incur higher than anticipated financing costs.

REGULATION G RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP; however, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures in this Report. Non-GAAP financial measures are financial measures that are derived from the condensed 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 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 presented in this Report and shows a reconciliation of each such non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Operating Expenses, excluding Fuel, Other Non-Airline Operating Expenses, and Special Items ("Operating Expenses ex-fuel") and Operating Expense ex-fuel per Available Seat Mile ex-fuel ("CASM ex-fuel")
Operating Expense per Available Seat Mile ("CASM") is a common metric used in the airline industry. 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 JetBlue Ventures and JetBlue Travel Products, 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 that 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.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, special items included Spirit-related costs, voluntary opt-out costs, and Embraer E190 fleet transition costs. Please refer to Note 11 in our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Report.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, special items included union contract costs and Spirit-related costs.
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.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Except as described below, there have been no material changes in market risks from the information provided in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Aircraft Fuel
Our results of operations are affected by changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel. Market risk is estimated as a hypothetical 10% increase in the March 31, 2024 cost per gallon of fuel. Based on projected fuel consumption for the next 12 months, including the impact of our hedging position, such an increase would result in an increase to aircraft fuel expense of approximately $262 million. As of March 31, 2024, we have hedged approximately 27% of our projected fuel requirement for the second quarter of 2024, 3% for the third quarter of 2024, and 5% for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Interest
Our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest expense from variable-rate debt instruments and on interest income generated from our cash and investment balances. The interest rate is fixed for $4.6 billion of our debt and finance lease obligations, with the remaining $395 million having floating interest rates. As of March 31, 2024, if interest rates were on average 100 basis points higher year-over-year, our annual interest expense would increase by approximately $4 million. This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical change in interest rates on our variable rate debt.
If interest rates were to average 100 basis points lower in 2024 than they were during 2023, our interest income from cash and investment balances would decrease by approximately $7 million. This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical change in interest rates on the balances of our money market funds and short-term, interest-bearing investments for the trailing twelve-month period.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
