JetBlue Adjusts Fleet Delivery Plan Through 2016
JetBlue Slows Growth While Maintaining Flexibility

NEW YORK, (Dec. 4, 2006) – JetBlue Airways (Nasdaq: JBLU) today announces a revised fleet delivery plan designed to manage capacity growth while retaining maximum flexibility in order to respond to market conditions. 

On December 4, 2006, JetBlue entered into Amendment No. 3 to our EMBRAER 190 Purchase Agreement to modify the timing of its EMBRAER 190 aircraft purchases.  See chart below for details.  JetBlue forecasts a 2007 available seat mile (ASM) capacity growth of 14-17 percent, which assumes additional aircraft sales, leases and/or assignments, a reduction from the 18-20 percent ASM capacity growth JetBlue previously expected.

‘‘JetBlue has grown phenomenally since we first started operating in February 2000,’’ said JetBlue Founder and CEO David Neeleman. ‘‘We are now entering a new chapter in the JetBlue story – still a story of strategic growth, but more a targeted growth that builds on our market dominance on the East Coast, and in particular, our home base of operations at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.’’
