The headline driver was meaningful progress on the carrier's JetForward transformation plan, which has now generated $180 million in cumulative incremental EBIT since inception, including $90 million in the first half of 2025 alone. A newly announced interline and loyalty partnership with United Airlines, called Blue Sky, lifted the program's cumulative EBIT target to $850 million to $950 million by end of 2027. Cost discipline also helped, with fuel expense falling 19.4% to $504 million and CASM ex-fuel growth beating guidance for the seventh consecutive quarter. Looking ahead, JetBlue guided Q3 RASM down 6.0% to 2.0% year-over-year, while an improving Pratt and Whitney aircraft-on-ground situation, now expected to average fewer than 10 planes this year, supports a gradual return to capacity growth.
