Delivered 10.9% RASM growth, driven by continued demand strength and commercial actions

Re-established full-year 2026 outlook, supported by improved visibility into the second half

Introduced a 2028 EPS target of at least $1.00 per share

JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ:JBLU) today reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2026.

"Two years into JetForward, we’re encouraged by the progress we’re making and the results we’re driving across the business," said Joanna Geraghty, JetBlue’s chief executive officer. "Our second quarter performance reflects the strength of our JetForward strategy and the focused execution of our crewmembers, as strong customer demand and our decisive actions enabled us to recover fuel costs more quickly than we anticipated."

"This momentum reinforces our confidence that we're strengthening the foundation for a more profitable JetBlue. Reflecting the progress we're making and the earnings trajectory we see ahead, today we're introducing a long-term financial target of at least $1.00 in earnings per share for 2028 as we continue on the path toward restoring sustained profitability."

JetForward Continues to Deliver Measurable Results

JetForward continues to deliver meaningful value across the business. Through June 2026, the airline's transformation strategy has generated $470 million of cumulative incremental EBIT ⁽¹⁾ and remains on track to deliver its previously announced $850 - $950 million annual incremental EBIT benefit by year-end 2027.

Best East Coast Leisure Network
- Accelerated long-term growth in Fort Lauderdale, delivering 11% YoY RASM growth in the second quarter despite nearly 40% capacity growth. Updated flight schedules to enhance connectivity through a more structured bank schedule and deliver more than 150 daily departures this winter.

- Expanded AI and data science-enabled capabilities to improve planning, automate decision-making, and better manage disruptions.

JetForward's initiatives continue to progress, led by BlueFirst^TM, our new domestic first class product, which is expected to begin sales this fall. As these initiatives mature, JetBlue expects JetForward benefits to continue building beyond 2027, reaching approximately $1.2 billion of annual incremental EBIT in 2028. Based on this planned trajectory, the airline introduced a long-term financial target for 2028 EPS of at least $1.00 per share assuming continued demand strength and an average $3.00 per gallon jet fuel price in 2028.

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 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 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 interest rates and 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")

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 Paisly 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.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no special items.

For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, special items included voluntary opt-out costs.

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.

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.
