Lastly, on a day when CEO Robin Hayes said the airline is "not wedded" to growing for the sake of doing so but said it is picking markets where it has performed well.
During the second quarter, JetBlue's unit revenue declined 1.2% year over year, due to a 3.75-percentage-point headwind from the timing of Easter and a credit card program bonus received in the year-earlier period. Meanwhile, its average fuel price rocketed higher from $1.61 per gallon to $2.28 per gallon.
I had to add some budget airline action in my folder. For this one, I did it for the love of JetBlue. I have made serious cash from this one before.
