- From profit to six straight losses. Jetblue Airways earned $1.9 billion in 2017–2019. Then it lost money every year from 2020 to 2025: $3.6 billion in all.
- The cycle hit it too. The losses began in 2020, when the US economy shrank 2.1%. Part of the damage came from outside; the test is whether it recovered when the economy did.
- Leaders came and went. Jetblue Airways filed 32 leadership changes since 2016, more than 87% of large transportation and utility companies (the median is 12). The day after each, its shares moved a median 0.4 points against its sector. The news was rarely news.
