JetBlue Experience

We offer our customers a distinctive flying experience which we refer to as the "JetBlue experience". We believe we deliver award-winning service and product with competitive fares that focuses on the entire customer experience, from booking an itinerary to arrival at the final destination. We believe JetBlue is the carrier of choice for the majority of travelers who have been underserved by other airlines.

In July 2024, we announced JetForward, our new strategic framework which is driving new initiatives focused on four priority moves: delivering reliable and caring service, building the best east coast leisure network, offering products and perks customers value, and providing a secure financial future. Refer to Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of this report for further details on progress made on our JetForward initiatives.

Differentiated Product and Culture

Delivering the JetBlue experience to our customers through our differentiated product and culture is core to our mission to bring humanity back to air travel. We look to attract new customers to our brand and provide current customers with a reason to come back by continuing to innovate and evolve the JetBlue experience. We believe we can adapt to the changing needs of our customers and a key element of our success is the belief that competitive fares and a great product need not be mutually exclusive.

We offer customers a choice of one of three JetBlue experiences: the core experience, EvenMore® and Mint®. Within the core experience, there are four fares to choose from: Blue Basic, Blue, Blue Plus, and Blue Extra. All JetBlue fares include a free carry-on bag, free seatback entertainment, free high-speed Wi-Fi, free snacks, and free non-alcoholic beverages. Customers can choose to "buy up" to an option with additional offerings. These different fares allow customers to select the products or services they need or value when they travel, without having to pay for the things they do not need or value.

We offer core customers comfortable seating to relax and enjoy the JetBlue experience. Beginning in January 2025, EvenMore® Space was rebranded to EvenMore® which, in addition to giving customers the opportunity to enjoy additional legroom, priority security access, and early boarding, also includes dedicated overhead bin space, complimentary alcoholic beverages, and premium snack options. Our EvenMore® experience is available for purchase across our fleet. Additionally in 2025, we enhanced our EvenMore® offering, with EvenMore® now selling via global distribution systems, providing customers more opportunities to book our premium economy offering on a single ticket through travel agents and online travel agencies.

Customers on select coast-to-coast, Caribbean and Latin American routes and all transatlantic flights have the option to purchase Mint®, our lie-flat premium service. Each Mint® seat includes a fully lie-flat bed with our exclusive Tuft & Needle® sleep experience. Our Mint® customers also have access to an assortment of complimentary food, beverages and products including a small-plates menu, artisanal snacks, alcoholic beverages, a blanket, pillows, an amenity kit and headphones.

On select transatlantic and coast-to-coast flights, we offer a reimagined version of our Mint®experience with a completely refreshed cabin design featuring private suites with aisle access. Each of these select Mint® aircraft also includes two front row Mint®Studios which offer the largest TV on a U.S. airline and an extra seat and space to work, lounge and entertain.

In 2024, we announced plans to launch a domestic first-class experience across our non-Mint® fleet to offer an additional option for customers seeking a premium travel experience. The first-class experience is expected to roll out on a portion of our fleet in 2026 with the majority planned to be completed by the end of 2027.

We offer seatback screens across our fleet, with AVANT systems installed on majority of our aircraft. AVANT equipped aircraft feature an inflight entertainment library of approximately 300 movies and 1,000 television episodes, while a small portion of the fleet operates other systems with more limited content. Customers also enjoy at least 18 channels of live TV on most flights. Our entire fleet is equipped with Fly-Fi®, our high-speed broadband service, providing gate-to-gate Wi-Fi access at every seat.

In September 2025, we announced that JetBlue was the first airline in the world to sign on with Amazon's Leo, an advanced low Earth orbit satellite broadband network, to bring even faster and more reliable connectivity to our onboard Wi-Fi. We expect to adopt Amazon Leo's cutting-edge technology on a portion of our fleet in 2027.

In December 2025, we opened BlueHouse, JetBlue's first airport lounge, at John F. Kennedy International Airport ("JFK") Terminal 5. The next BlueHouse location is scheduled to open at Boston Logan International Airport ("BOS") Terminal C in 2026, reinforcing our ongoing investment in premium offerings.

Because of our network strength in leisure destinations, we also sell vacation packages through our wholly owned subsidiary, Paisly, LLC ("Paisly") (f/k/a JetBlue Travel Products), which offers one-stop, value-priced vacation services for self-directed packaged travel planning. These packages offer competitive fares for air travel on JetBlue along with a selection of JetBlue-recommended hotels and resorts, car rentals, and local attractions.

Network

We are a predominantly point-to-point system carrier with 95% of our routes touching at least one of our six focus cities: the New York metropolitan area, Boston, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood, Orlando, Los Angeles and San Juan. All six of our focus cities are in regions with a diverse mix of traffic.

Leisure traveler focused airlines are often faced with high seasonality. As a result, we continually work to manage our mix of customers to include both business travelers and travelers visiting friends and relatives ("VFR"). VFR travelers tend to be slightly less seasonal and less susceptible to economic downturns than traditional leisure destination travelers. Understanding the purpose of our customers' travel helps us optimize destinations, strengthen our network, and increase revenue.

As of December 31, 2025, we served 112 destinations ("BlueCities") in 29 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Canada, and 30 countries in the Caribbean and Latin America, and Europe.

We group our capacity distribution based upon geographical regions rather than on mileage or a length-of-haul basis. The historic distribution of available seat miles ("ASMs"), which we also refer to as capacity, by region for the years ending December 31 was:

Capacity Distribution202520242023
Transcontinental26.0%27.0%29.9%
Caribbean & Latin America (1)36.535.933.2
Florida25.423.823.7
Other (East, Central, West)7.08.010.1
Transatlantic5.15.33.1
Total100.0%100.0%100.0%

(1) Domestic operations as defined by the U.S. Department of Transportation ("DOT"), include Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, but for the purposes of the capacity distribution table above, we have included these locations in the Caribbean and Latin America region.

Airline Commercial Partnerships

Airlines frequently participate in commercial partnerships with other carriers in order to increase customer convenience by providing interline connectivity, codeshare, complementary flight schedules, frequent flyer program reciprocity, and other joint marketing activities. Our commercial partnerships typically begin as an interline agreement allowing a customer to book a single itinerary with tickets on multiple airlines. On their day of travel, customers have a simplified airport experience with single check-in and bag drop.

Blue Sky

In May 2025, we announced a collaboration with United Airlines, referred to as Blue Sky. This collaboration is structured to give customers of both airlines even more options to find flights that fit their plans as well as new opportunities to earn and use MileagePlus® miles and TrueBlue® points across both airlines. Blue Sky includes a standard interline between JetBlue and United Airlines, which is expected to be implemented over time. In October 2025, customers became eligible to earn and redeem points across both JetBlue Airways and United Airlines loyalty programs. We are also now able to reaccommodate customers across either airline in the event of a real-time cancellation or schedule change. In February 2026 we began to cross-merchandise flights on one another's website, and expect implementation to progress in 2026 at which point we plan to introduce additional enhancements such as reciprocal benefits including priority boarding, preferred and extra legroom seating, and same-day standby and flight changes, with anticipated implementation beginning in March 2026. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2026, we expect to begin selling United Airlines non-air ancillaries through Paisly. We plan to launch with car rentals, followed by cruises, vacation packages, and travel insurance, with the expectation to be selling all ancillary products by the end of 2026.

Marketing

JetBlue is a widely recognized and respected global brand. JetBlue created a new category in air travel and our brand stands for offering a great product and experience with competitive fares. We believe our brand continues to be one of our most valuable assets, reflecting our reputation as a safe, reliable, and high-value airline. Strong customer awareness and affinity for our brand are integral to the success of our marketing efforts, and enables us to promote ourselves as a preferred marketing partner with companies across many different industries.

We market our services through an integrated mix of channels, including digital advertising, social media platforms, search and performance marketing, and strategic brand partnerships. We use a data-driven marketing approach to better target audiences, optimize spend, and enhance personalization across the customer journey. In addition to larger multi-market campaigns, we participate in local events, sponsorships, and community engagement programs across our route network to demonstrate our commitment and strengthen brand relevance in key markets.

Distribution

Our primary and preferred distribution channel to customers is through our website, www.jetblue.com, our lowest cost channel. Our website allows us to more closely control and deliver the JetBlue experience while also offering the full suite of JetBlue Core fare options, EvenMore®, Mint®, JetBlue Vacations® and TrueBlue Travel TM, and other ancillary services.

Our participation in global distribution systems ("GDS") supports our profitable growth, particularly in the business market. We find business customers are more likely to book through a travel agency or a booking product which relies on a GDS platform. Although the distribution cost through this channel is higher than through our website, the average fare purchased through a GDS is generally higher and often covers the increased distribution costs. We currently participate in several major GDSs and online travel agents. Due to the majority of our customers booking travel on our website, we maintain relatively low distribution costs which helps us to offer lower fares to customers.

Cust omer Loyalty Program

TrueBlue® is our customer loyalty program designed to reward and recognize loyal customers. Members earn points with JetBlue, JetBlue Vacations®, TrueBlue Travel TM, and select airline and travel partners. Members can redeem points for any JetBlue-operated flight, flight and hotel package, as well as car rentals and hotel stays through TrueBlue Travel TM. TrueBlue® points can be used any time with no blackout dates and they never expire. Redemption amounts are based on the current price for that trip on JetBlue-operated flights or members can use a combination of cash and points. TrueBlue Mosaic® is an additional program threshold for our most loyal customers which features four levels, Mosaic 1, Mosaic 2, Mosaic 3, and Mosaic 4.

Our TrueBlue® loyalty program brings many choices and perks for customers. TrueBlue® members earn tiles to track and measure progress towards perks and Mosaic® status. Tiles are earned based on a combination of travel spend and credit card spend. The program is designed to provide TrueBlue® members many opportunities to get rewarded, even before achieving

Mosaic® status. TrueBlue® includes Perks You Pick® for non-Mosaic® TrueBlue® members, and four distinct Mosaic levels, each featuring Mosaic Signature Perks and a selection from the Mosaic Perks You Pick® menu.

We currently have co-branded loyalty credit cards available to eligible U.S. residents, as well as co-brand agreements in the Caribbean to allow cardholders to earn TrueBlue® points and tiles. Our co-branded credit cards in the United States are issued in partnership with Barclaycard® on the Mastercard® network. Our co-branded credit cards in the Caribbean are on the Mastercard® network and are issued by Banco Popular de Puerto Rico in Puerto Rico, Banco Popular Dominicano in the Dominican Republic, and CIBC Caribbean in Barbados, Jamaica, Trinidad, the Bahamas, the Cayman Islands and more countries coming.

In January 2025, we launched a premium co-branded credit card, which provides cardholders with incremental benefits such as lounge access, priority boarding, TrueBlue Travel TM statement credits, and more.

We have various agreements with other loyalty partners, including financial institutions, hotels, car rental companies and other airlines, that allow their customers to earn TrueBlue® points across programs. We plan to continue expanding the reach of our co-branded credit cards and pursue additional loyalty partnerships in the future.
