Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
JetBlue Airways Corporation ("JetBlue") provides air transportation services across the United States, the Caribbean, Latin America, Canada, and Europe. Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of JetBlue and our subsidiaries which are collectively referred to as "we" or the "Company." All majority-owned subsidiaries are consolidated on a line-by-line basis, with all intercompany transactions and balances being eliminated. These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our 2023 audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Form 10-K").
These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). In our opinion, they reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, that are necessary to present fairly the results for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations; however, we believe that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
We have reclassified certain prior period balances to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.
Note 2 - Revenue Recognition
The Company categorizes revenue recognized from contracts with its customers by revenue source as we believe it best depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flow. The following table provides revenue recognized by revenue source for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):
Three Months Ended September 30,Nine Months Ended September 30,

Total operating revenue$2,365 $2,353 $7,002 $7,290 
TrueBlue® is our customer loyalty program designed to reward and recognize our customers. TrueBlue® points earned from ticket purchases are recorded as a reduction to Passenger travel within passenger revenue. Amounts presented in Loyalty revenue - air transportation represent revenue recognized when TrueBlue® points have been redeemed and travel has occurred. Loyalty revenue within other revenue is primarily comprised of the non-air transportation elements from the sale of TrueBlue® points.

Contract Liabilities
Our contract liabilities primarily consist of ticket sales for which transportation has not yet been provided, unused credits available to customers, and outstanding loyalty points available for redemption (in millions):
September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
Air traffic liability - passenger travel$1,137 $1,099 
Air traffic liability - loyalty program (air transportation)1,101 1,072 
Deferred revenue (1)
427 487 
Total$2,665 $2,658 
    
(1) Deferred revenue is included within other accrued liabilities and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we recognized passenger revenue of $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively, which was included in passenger travel liability at the beginning of the respective periods.
The Company elected the practical expedient that allows entities to not disclose the amount of the remaining transaction price and its expected timing of recognition for passenger tickets if the contract has an original expected duration of one year or less or if certain other conditions are met. We elected to apply this practical expedient to our contract liabilities relating to passenger travel and ancillary services as our tickets or any related passenger credits expire generally one year from the date of booking.
TrueBlue® points are combined into one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of points that were part of the air traffic liability balance at the beginning of the period as well as points that were issued during the period.
The table below presents the activity of the current and non-current air traffic liability for our loyalty program, and includes points earned and sold to participating companies for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):
Balance at December 31, 2023$1,072

Balance at September 30, 2023$1,045 
The timing of our TrueBlue® point redemptions can vary; however, the majority of points are redeemed within approximately three years of the date of issuance.
Note 3 - Long-term Debt, Short-term Borrowings and Finance Lease Obligations
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we made principal payments of $631 million on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations. This includes the early retirement of $425 million related to our existing 0.50% convertible senior notes.
At September 30, 2024, we had pledged aircraft, engines, other equipment and facilities assets with a net book value of $6.9 billion as security under various financing arrangements. In addition, certain TrueBlue® program assets have been pledged as part of the financing of the TrueBlue® program described below.

(1) The estimated fair values of our publicly held long-term debt are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of our non-public debt are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on our borrowing rates for instruments with similar terms and therefore classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

We have financed certain aircraft with Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates ("EETCs"). One of the benefits of this structure is being able to finance several aircraft at one time, rather than individually. The structure of EETC financing is that we create pass-through trusts in order to issue pass-through certificates. The proceeds from the issuance of these certificates are then used to purchase equipment notes which are issued by us and are secured by our aircraft. These trusts meet the definition of a variable interest entity ("VIE"), as defined in Topic 810, Consolidation of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Codification, and must be considered for consolidation in our financial statements. Our assessment of our EETCs considers both quantitative and qualitative factors including the purpose for which these trusts were established and the nature of the risks in each. The main purpose of the trust structure is to enhance the creditworthiness of our debt obligation through certain bankruptcy protection provisions and liquidity facilities, and also to lower our total borrowing cost. We concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary in these trusts because our involvement in them is limited to principal and interest payments on the related notes, the trusts were not set up to pass along variability created by credit risk to us, and the likelihood of our defaulting on the notes. Therefore, we have not consolidated these trusts in our financial statements.
2024 Financings
TrueBlue® Financings
TrueBlue® Senior Secured Notes
In August 2024, JetBlue and JetBlue Loyalty, LP ("Loyalty LP" and, together with the Company, the "TrueBlue® Issuers") co-issued $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2031 (the "TrueBlue® Notes"). The TrueBlue® Notes bear interest at a rate of 9.875% per annum, in each case payable quarterly in arrears beginning in December 2024. The TrueBlue® Notes are scheduled to mature in September 2031, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by the TrueBlue® Issuers.

The TrueBlue® Notes were issued under an indenture (the "TrueBlue® Indenture"), dated as of August 27, 2024, by and among the TrueBlue® Issuers, the guarantors party thereto (the "Guarantors") and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The TrueBlue® Notes were sold pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated August 13, 2024, by and among the TrueBlue® Issuers, the Guarantors and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc., as representatives of the several initial purchasers identified therein.

The TrueBlue® Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by each of the Guarantors. The TrueBlue® Notes and the TrueBlue® Note guarantees are secured, together with all outstanding obligations under the TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility (as defined below), by a first lien on certain collateral in connection with the Company’s customer loyalty program, TrueBlue® (the "Collateral").

At any time prior to August 27, 2027, the TrueBlue® Issuers may redeem the TrueBlue® Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus an applicable "make-whole" premium. On or after August 27, 2027, the TrueBlue® Issuers may redeem the TrueBlue® Notes, in whole or in part, at the applicable redemption prices described in the Indenture. No sinking fund is provided for the TrueBlue® Notes, which means the TrueBlue® Issuers are not required to set aside funds periodically for redemption or retirement of the TrueBlue® Notes. Upon the occurrence of certain circumstances, the TrueBlue® Issuers will prepay a pro rata portion of the TrueBlue® Notes.

The TrueBlue® Indenture contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants including compliance with certain debt service coverage ratios and minimum liquidity requirements as well as events of default. In the case of an event of default with respect to the TrueBlue® Issuers and/or the Guarantors arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding TrueBlue® Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.
TrueBlue® Senior Secured Term Loan Facility
In August 2024, the Company and Loyalty LP entered into a new senior secured term loan credit and guaranty agreement among the Company and Loyalty LP, as co-borrowers, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, Barclays Bank PLC, as administrative agent, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as collateral administrator, for a $765 million senior secured term loan facility (the "TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility") due 2029. The TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by the Guarantors and secured, on a pari passu basis with the TrueBlue® Notes, by the Collateral. The loans under the TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to Term SOFR plus an applicable margin (subject to a Term SOFR floor), or another index rate plus an applicable margin. The TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility is subject to quarterly amortization payments beginning in December 2024.

The TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility also contains mandatory prepayment provisions, which may require the co-borrowers, in certain instances, to prepay obligations owing under the TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility or other priority lien debt in connection with, among other things, dispositions of collateral or a change of control. Any prepayment of the loans under the TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility prior to the maturity date (other than as a result of an early amortization event, an event of default or certain other mandatory prepayment events thereunder) may require the TrueBlue® Issuers to pay a prepayment premium.
The TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility contains covenants and events of default substantially similar to those applicable to the TrueBlue® Notes, including a cross-default to other material indebtedness including the TrueBlue® Notes.
2.50% Convertible Senior Notes, Due through 2029
In August 2024, we issued $460 million of 2.50% convertible senior notes due in September 2029, consisting of an initial $400 million offering and a subsequent $60 million option, under an indenture, dated as of August 16, 2024 with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year, beginning in March 2025. The notes are general unsecured senior obligations and will rank equal in right of payment with our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to our existing and future subordinated debt. The notes will effectively rank junior in right of payment to any of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and are structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.
Holders of the notes may convert them into shares of our common stock subsequent to December 31, 2024 but prior to June 1, 2029 only under certain enumerated circumstances, such as upon the satisfaction of the sale price condition, the satisfaction of the trading price condition, notice of redemption, or specified corporate events, and thereafter at any time upon conversion, the notes will be settled in cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and, at our election, in shares of our common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock in respect of the remainder, if any, of our conversion obligation.
The initial conversion rate of 163.3987 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, corresponds to an initial conversion price of approximately $6.12 per share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including, but not limited to, the issuance of certain stock dividends on common stock, the issuance of certain rights or warrants, subdivisions, combinations, distributions of capital stock, indebtedness or assets, cash dividends and certain issuer tender or exchange offers.
We are not required to redeem or retire the notes periodically. We may, at our option, redeem any of the notes for cash at a redemption price of 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time on or after September 1, 2027 until the 45th scheduled trading day before the maturity date, under certain circumstances. Additionally, holders may under specified conditions, have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the notes for a cash price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
We have evaluated the conversion feature of this note offering for embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and ASC 470, Debt. Based on our assessment, separate accounting for the conversion feature of this note offering is not required.
Of the $460 million 2.50% convertible senior notes issued, we incurred $10 million in issuance costs, which resulted in net proceeds of $450 million. We used the net proceeds of the initial offering to retire $425 million of our existing 0.50% convertible senior notes, due 2026. As a result of this retirement, we recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $22 million, in the third quarter of 2024. This gain was included within other income (expense) on our consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2024, $323 million (net of unamortized issuance costs) remains outstanding on these convertible notes.
For the third quarter of 2024, the effective interest rate of the $460 million 2.50% convertible senior notes was 2.6%. With respect to these notes, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized interest expense of $1.7 million, of which, $0.3 million was due to the amortization of debt issuance costs and $1.4 million was due to contractual interest expense.

Floating Rate Equipment Notes
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we issued $350 million in floating rate equipment notes. Debt incurred matures on an aircraft-by-aircraft basis from October 2027 to June 2036, with principal and interest payable quarterly in arrears.
Sale-Leaseback Transactions
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we entered into $607 million of sale-leaseback transactions. These transactions did not qualify as sales for accounting purposes. The assets associated with these transactions remain on our consolidated balance sheets within property and equipment and the related liabilities under the lease are classified within debt and finance leases obligations. These transactions are treated as cash from financing activities on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Short-term Borrowings
Citibank Line of Credit
As previously disclosed, on October 21, 2022, JetBlue entered into the $600 million Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the "Facility"), among JetBlue, Citibank N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto.
On July 29, 2024, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement, which modifies the Facility to, among other things, (i) extend the final maturity of the Facility to October 21, 2029; provided that if the Company’s 0.50% convertible senior notes due 2026 are not extended, refinanced or paid off, subject to a specified minimum outstanding principal amount thereof, then the Facility expiration will be automatically shortened to December 31, 2025; (ii) adjust the margin and the minimum liquidity requirements of the Company; (iii) replace the sustainability adjustment mechanism; (iv) allow for certain additions of eligible collateral; and (v) remove provisions relating to the terminated merger agreement with Spirit Airlines, Inc. ("Spirit").
As of and for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under the Facility.
Morgan Stanley Line of Credit
We have a revolving line of credit with Morgan Stanley for up to approximately $200 million. This line of credit is secured by a portion of our investment securities held by Morgan Stanley and the amount available to us under this line of credit may vary accordingly. This line of credit bears interest at a floating rate based upon LIBOR (or such replacement index as the bank shall determine from time to time in accordance with the terms of the agreement), plus a margin. As of and for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under this line of credit.
2022 $3.5 Billion Senior Secured Bridge Facility
JetBlue entered into a Second Amended and Restated Commitment Letter (the "Commitment Letter"), dated July 28, 2022, with Goldman Sachs Bank USA; BofA Securities, Inc.; Bank of America, N.A.; BNP Paribas; Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch; Credit Suisse Loan Funding LLC; Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank; Natixis, New York Branch; Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation; and MUFG Bank, Ltd. (collectively, the "Commitment Parties"), pursuant to which the Commitment Parties committed to provide a senior secured bridge facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $3.5 billion to finance the acquisition of Spirit under the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). The Commitment Letter was terminated on March 4, 2024. Prior to its termination, we did not have a balance outstanding or any borrowings under this facility. Please refer to Note 12 for additional details on the termination of the Merger Agreement.
Note 4 - Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from restricted stock units, the crewmember stock purchase plan, convertible notes, warrants issued under various federal payroll support programs, and any other potentially dilutive instruments using the treasury stock and if-converted method. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share amounts were 4.4 million and 2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the computation of diluted loss

Note 5 - Crewmember Retirement Plan
We sponsor a retirement savings 401(k) defined contribution plan (the "Plan"), covering our U.S. and Puerto Rico crewmembers, where we match 100% of our eligible crewmember's contributions up to 5% of their eligible wages. Employer contributions vest after three years of service and are measured from a crewmember's hire date. Crewmembers are vested immediately in their voluntary contributions.
Certain Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") licensed crewmembers received a discretionary contribution of 3% of eligible compensation, which we refer to as Retirement Advantage. As of January 2024, the Retirement Advantage program ended and these licensed Crewmembers now receive a discretionary contribution of 8% of eligible compensation, which we refer to as Retirement Non-elective Licensed Crewmember contributions. System Controllers also receive a Company discretionary contribution of 5% of eligible compensation, referred to as Retirement Non-elective Crewmember contributions. The Company’s non-elective contributions vests after three years of service.
Our Pilots receive a non-elective Company contribution of 16% of eligible compensation per the terms of the finalized collective bargaining agreement between JetBlue and the Air Line Pilots Association ("ALPA"), in lieu of the above 401(k) Company matching contribution, Retirement Non-elective, and Retirement Advantage contributions. The Company's non-elective contribution of eligible Pilot compensation vests after three years of service.
Total 401(k) company match and non-elective crewmember contribution expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $68 million and $75 million, respectively and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $195 million and $213 million, respectively.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
We utilize several credit card processors to process our ticket sales. Our agreements with these processors do not contain covenants, but do generally allow the processor to withhold cash reserves to protect the processor from potential liability for tickets purchased, but not yet used for travel. While we currently do not have any collateral requirements related to our credit card processors, we may be required to issue collateral to our credit card processors, or other key business partners, in the future.
As of September 30, 2024, we had $72 million in restricted cash and cash equivalents held as a reserve for principal and interest payments associated with the financing of the TrueBlue® program. We also had $59 million for letters of credit relating to a certain number of our leases, which will expire at the end of the related lease terms as well as a $65 million letter of credit relating to our 5% ownership in JFK Millennium Partner LLC, a private entity that will finance, develop, and operate John F. Kennedy International Airport ("JFK") Terminal 6. The letters of credit are included in restricted cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, we had $9 million cash pledged primarily related to other business partner agreements, which will expire according to the terms of the related agreements.

Labor Unions and Non-Unionized Crewmembers
As of September 30, 2024, 52% of our full-time equivalent crewmembers were represented by labor unions. The pilot group, which represents 23% of our full-time equivalent crewmembers, is covered by a collective bargaining agreement ("CBA"). Negotiations for an amended CBA began in May 2024. Our pilots are represented by ALPA. Our inflight crewmembers and flight instructors are represented by the Transport Workers Union of America ("TWU"); our other frontline crewmembers do not have third party representation.
ALPA
In January 2023, JetBlue pilots ratified a two-year contract extension effective March 1, 2023, which included a ratification payment and adjustments to paid-time-off accruals resulting from the pay rate increases of $95 million. JetBlue pilots received an additional pay rate increase in August 2024 from this ratification, which resulted in an adjustment to paid time-off accruals of $26 million. These expenses are included within special items.
TWU
On July 14, 2022, TWU filed a representation application with the National Mediation Board ("NMB") seeking an election among the 35 pilot instructors (called "Flight Instructors"). JetBlue disputed TWU’s application alleging that "Flight Instructors" do not constitute a craft or class. On October 26, 2023, the NMB notified the participants that it rejected JetBlue’s argument and ordered an election. The Flight Instructors voted for TWU representation. Contract negotiations for an initial CBA are ongoing and began in April 2024.
Non-Unionized Crewmembers
We enter into individual employment agreements with each of our non-unionized FAA-licensed crewmembers, which include dispatchers, technicians, inspectors, and air traffic controllers. Each employment agreement is for a term of five years and automatically renews for an additional five years unless either the crewmember or we elect not to renew it by giving at least 90 days' notice before the end of the relevant term. Pursuant to these agreements, these crewmembers can only be terminated for cause. In the event of a downturn in our business that would require a reduction in work hours, we are obligated to pay these crewmembers a guaranteed level of income and to continue their benefits if they do not obtain other aviation employment.
Legal Matters
Occasionally, we are involved in various claims, lawsuits, regulatory examinations, investigations, and other legal matters involving suppliers, crewmembers, customers, and governmental agencies, arising, for the most part, in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of litigation and other legal matters is always uncertain. The Company believes it has valid defenses to the legal matters currently pending against it, is defending itself vigorously, and has recorded accruals determined in accordance with GAAP, where appropriate. In making a determination regarding accruals, using available information, we evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in legal or regulatory proceedings to which we are a party and record a loss contingency when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These subjective determinations are based on the status of such legal or regulatory proceedings, the merits of our defenses, and consultation with legal counsel. Actual outcomes of these legal and regulatory proceedings may materially differ from our current estimates. It is possible that resolution of one or more of the legal matters currently pending or threatened could result in losses material to our condensed consolidated results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.
To date, none of these types of litigation matters, most of which are typically covered by insurance, has had a material impact on our operations or financial condition. We have insured and continue to insure against most of these types of claims. A judgment on any claim not covered by, or in excess of, our insurance coverage could materially adversely affect our condensed consolidated results of operations, liquidity, or financial condition.
As previously disclosed, in July 2020, JetBlue and American Airlines Group Inc. ("American") entered into the Northeast Alliance (the "NEA"), which was designed to optimize our respective networks at JFK Airport, LaGuardia Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, and Boston Logan International Airport. On September 21, 2021, the United States Department of Justice, along with the Attorneys General of six states and the District of Columbia filed suit against JetBlue and American seeking to enjoin the NEA, alleging that it violated Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The court issued a decision on May 19, 2023, permanently enjoining the NEA, and shortly thereafter we initiated a wind down of the NEA. On July 28, 2023, the court issued its Final Judgement and Order Entering Permanent Injunction, which took effect on August 18, 2023 (the "Final Injunction"). The wind down of the NEA is substantially complete, but remaining impacts could require us to incur additional costs and

therefore have an impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
In December 2022 and February 2023, four putative class actions lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York ("EDNY") and the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, respectively, alleging that the NEA violates Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act. Among other things, plaintiffs seek monetary damages on behalf of a putative class of direct purchasers of airline tickets from JetBlue and American and, depending on the specific case, other airlines on flights to or from NEA airports from July 16, 2020 through the present. Plaintiffs in these actions also seek to enjoin the NEA. JetBlue moved to dismiss the claims. In September 2024, the court issued its Decision and Order denying JetBlue’s motion to dismiss the consolidated NEA civil class action cases pending in the EDNY. We continue to believe these lawsuits are without merit.

For information on legal proceedings related to our previously planned acquisition of Spirit, see Note 12.
Note 7 - Fair Value
Under Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification"), disclosures are required about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped is established, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
Level 1 - observable inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, and other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly for the asset or liability; or
Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, such as discounted cash flow models or valuations.
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following is a listing of our assets required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and where they are classified within the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in millions):

Refer to Note 3 for fair value information related to our outstanding debt obligations as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents
Our cash equivalents include money market securities and time deposits which are readily convertible into cash, have maturities of three months or less when purchased, and are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable. The money market securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy and recorded within cash and cash equivalents on our consolidated balance sheets. Restricted cash equivalents are composed of money market securities held as a reserve for principal and interest payments

associated with the financing of the TrueBlue® program.
Available-for-Sale Investment Securities
Our available-for-sale investment securities include investments such as time deposits, commercial paper, and convertible debt securities. The fair value of time deposits and commercial paper is based on observable inputs in non-active markets, which are therefore classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy. The fair value of convertible debt securities is based on unobservable inputs and is classified as Level 3 in the hierarchy.
Aircraft Fuel Derivatives
Our aircraft fuel derivatives include call spread options which are not traded on public exchanges. Their fair values are determined using a market approach based on inputs that are readily available from public markets for commodities and energy trading activities; therefore, they are classified as Level 2 inputs. The data inputs are combined into qualitative models and processes to generate forward curves and volatility related to the specific terms of the underlying hedge contracts. Aircraft fuel derivatives are included in prepaid expenses and other within current assets of our consolidated balance sheets.
Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities
Our held-to-maturity investment securities consist of corporate bonds, which are stated at amortized cost. If the corporate bonds were measured at fair value, they would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, based on quoted prices in active markets for similar securities.
We do not intend to sell these investment securities. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our held-to-maturity investment securities were as follows (in millions):

Maturities greater than twelve months are recorded within investment securities in the other assets section of our consolidated balance sheets.

Note 9 - Financial Derivative Instruments and Risk Management
As part of our risk management techniques, we periodically purchase over the counter energy derivative instruments to manage our exposure to the effect of changes in the price of aircraft fuel. Prices for the underlying commodities have historically been highly correlated to aircraft fuel, making derivatives of them effective at providing short-term protection against sharp increases in average fuel prices. We do not hold or issue any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Aircraft Fuel Derivatives
We attempt to obtain cash flow hedge accounting treatment for each fuel derivative that we enter into. This treatment is provided for under the Derivatives and Hedging topic of the FASB Codification which allows for gains and losses on the effective portion of qualifying hedges to be deferred until the underlying planned aircraft fuel consumption occurs, rather than recognizing the gains and losses on these instruments into earnings during each period they are outstanding.
For the effective portion of hedges, when aircraft fuel is consumed and the related derivative contract settles, any gain or loss previously recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized in aircraft fuel expense. All cash flows related to our fuel hedging derivatives are classified as operating cash flows.
Ineffectiveness occurs, in certain circumstances, when the change in the total fair value of the derivative instrument differs from the change in value of our expected future cash outlays for the purchase of aircraft fuel. If a hedge does not qualify for hedge accounting, the periodic changes in its fair value are recognized in other income (expense).
Our current approach to fuel hedging is to enter into hedges on a discretionary basis. We view our hedge portfolio as a form of insurance to help mitigate the impact of price volatility and protect us against severe spikes in oil prices, when possible.
The following table illustrates the approximate hedged percentages of our projected fuel usage by quarter as of September 30, 2024 related to our outstanding fuel hedging contracts that were designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.

Any outstanding derivative instrument exposes us to credit loss in connection with our fuel contracts in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to our agreements; however, we do not expect that any of our counterparties will fail to meet their obligations. The amount of such credit exposure is generally the fair value of our outstanding contracts for which we are in a receivable position. To manage credit risks we select counterparties based on credit assessments, limit our overall exposure to any single counterparty, and monitor the market position with each counterparty. Some of our agreements require cash deposits from either JetBlue or our counterparty if market risk exposure exceeds a specified threshold amount.
We have master netting arrangements with our counterparties allowing us the right of offset to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions. The financial derivative instrument agreements we have with our counterparties may require us to fund all, or a portion of, outstanding loss positions related to these contracts prior to their scheduled maturities. The amount of collateral posted, if any, is periodically adjusted based on the fair value of the hedge contracts. Our policy is to offset the liabilities represented by these contracts with any cash collateral paid to the counterparties.
There were no offsetting derivative instruments as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Note 12 - Termination of Merger Agreement with Spirit
The Merger Agreement
As previously disclosed, on July 28, 2022, JetBlue entered into the Merger Agreement with Spirit and Sundown Acquisition Corp., formerly a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of JetBlue ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which and subject to the terms and conditions therein, Merger Sub would merge with and into Spirit, with Spirit continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Merger").
On March 1, 2024, JetBlue, Spirit and Merger Sub entered into a Termination Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties agreed to terminate the Merger Agreement, effective immediately, subject to limited exceptions related to JetBlue’s previously agreed indemnification obligations. Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, JetBlue agreed to pay the $69 million breakup fee on March 5, 2024, which was recorded in special items on the consolidated statement of operations. The parties also agreed to release each other from claims, demands, damages, actions, causes of action and liability relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein or thereby.
In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, on a monthly basis between January 2023 and February 2024, JetBlue paid to the holders of record of outstanding Spirit shares an amount in cash equal to $0.10 per Spirit share (such amount, the "Additional Prepayment Amount", and each such monthly payment, an "Additional Prepayment"). In 2024, JetBlue made an aggregate of $22 million in Additional Prepayments to Spirit shareholders resulting in a total prepayment of $425 million. These Additional Prepayments were written off in March 2024, in addition to the $25 million reimbursement payment to Spirit in connection with the Frontier transaction costs as a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement. The write off is recorded in special items on the consolidated statement of operations.
In March 2024, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of $134 million related to the tax impact of the Spirit transaction costs.
Refer to Note 3 for further detail of the $3.5 billion Senior Secured Bridge Facility commitment to fund the purchase of Spirit, which was terminated concurrently with the termination of the Merger Agreement.
Legal Proceedings Related to the Merger
As previously disclosed, in March 2023, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ"), along with the Attorneys General of six states and the District of Columbia (the "AGs"), filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts against JetBlue and Spirit, seeking a permanent injunction preventing the Merger (the "Government Merger Lawsuit"). The trial commenced on October 31, 2023 and on January 17, 2024, the Court issued its Final Judgment and Order granting the plaintiffs' request for a permanent injunction of the Merger. On January 19, 2024, JetBlue and Spirit filed a Notice of Appeal with respect to the January 17, 2024 Final Judgment and Order and the Court’s corresponding January 16, 2024 Findings of Facts and Conclusion of Law, which the parties then moved to dismiss following their entrance into the Termination Agreement. On March 5, 2024, the Court approved JetBlue and Spirit's voluntary dismissal of the appeal. Subsequent to this decision, JetBlue and Spirit reached a tentative settlement with the AGs for legal fees related to their joining the DOJ in this lawsuit.
As also previously disclosed, on November 3, 2022, 25 individual consumers filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California against JetBlue and Spirit seeking to enjoin the Merger, alleging that it violates Section 7 of the Clayton Act (the "Private Merger Lawsuit"). On March 29, 2023, the Private Merger Lawsuit was transferred to the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The trial in the Private Merger Lawsuit was stayed pending resolution of the Government Merger Lawsuit. Following the execution of the Termination Agreement, JetBlue and Spirit moved to dismiss all proceedings related to the Private Merger Lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. The motions were granted by the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit and the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts on April 29, 2024 and June 18, 2024, respectively. The plaintiffs' subsequently moved for recovery of attorneys' fees related to the lawsuit. On September 5, 2024, Judge Young of the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts denied the plaintiffs' motion for legal fees. On September 13, 2024, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal of Judge Young's order in the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. JetBlue continues to believe that the plaintiffs' request for legal fees and the related appeal is without merit.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Part I, Item 2 of this Report should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Report and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2023 Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current plans, expectations and beliefs involving risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth in Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our 2023 Form 10-K and in Part II, Item 1A "Risk Factors" and other parts of this Report.
OVERVIEW
Third Quarter 2024 Results
In the third quarter of 2024, we incurred $60 million in net loss, compared to a net loss of $153 million for the same period in 2023. We continued to progress on our revenue initiatives in the third quarter. We saw revenue strength in our premium product offerings, with Even More Space, preferred seating, and Mint performing well. Also, our Blue Basic carry-on bag changes implemented this quarter, helped bolster our revenue results. In addition, improvements in our operational metrics resulted in greater cost efficiencies. Fuel prices declined over the quarter and we continued to make progress on our cost savings programs, allowing us to maintain low costs for the quarter.
Our third quarter 2024 highlights include the following:
Third quarter 2024 system available seat miles ("ASMs" or "capacity") decreased by 3.6% compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Systemwide on-time performance for the third quarter 2024 was 70.7% compared to 58.5% for the same period in 2023.
Completion factor increased to 98.1% in the third quarter of 2024 from 96.3% in the same period in 2023.
Operating revenue for the third quarter of 2024 was $2.4 billion, an increase of $12 million, or 0.5% compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Operating expense for the third quarter of 2024 was $2.4 billion, a 4.2% decrease year-over-year.
Operating expense, excluding special items, for the third quarter of 2024 decreased 4.1%(1) year-over-year.
Operating expense per available seat mile ("CASM") for the third quarter of 2024 decreased by 0.7% year-over-year to 14.35 cents compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Our operating expense for the third quarter of 2024 and 2023 included the effects of special items. Excluding aircraft fuel, special items, and operating expenses related to our non-airline businesses, our operating expense (1) was $1.8 billion, an increase of 1.1% year-over-year.
Excluding fuel, special items, and operating expenses related to our non-airline businesses, our cost per available seat mile ("CASM ex-fuel") (1) increased by 4.8% to 10.62 cents in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2023.
For the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, our reported loss per share was $0.17 and $0.46, respectively. Excluding special items, our adjusted loss per share (1) for the third quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $0.16 and $0.39, respectively.
Recent Developments
JetForward
In July 2024, JetBlue announced JetForward, our strategic framework focused on four priority moves: delivering reliable and caring service, building the best east coast leisure network, offering products and perks customers value, and providing a secure financial future. Our JetForward plan, which is designed to support our long-term profitability goals, reflects various assumptions regarding factors that may impact our operational and financial performance. For further information on potential factors that could affect the success of our strategic initiatives, including JetForward, see our 2023 Form 10-K.
The sections below highlight some additional changes made to support these priority moves during the quarter.

Network
We are committed to refocusing our network in 2024 to high-performing leisure, visiting-friends-and-relatives and transcontinental routes in core geographies like New York, New England, Florida, and Puerto Rico.
In the first nine months of 2024, we announced a number of network changes, which included 15 station closures and over 50 route exits.
During the quarter, we redeployed aircraft to leisure-focused routes originating from Northeast airports, such as Rhode Island's T.F. Green International Airport and Connecticut's Bradley International Airport.
Customer Experience and Products
During the quarter, we continued to make enhancements to our customer experience by increasing the value of our product offerings and customer experience.
We announced plans for the opening of airport lounges at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) Terminal 5 and Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) Terminal C. The JFK lounge is expected to open in late 2025, with the BOS lounge expected to follow shortly thereafter.
We implemented a baggage policy update to the Blue Basic fare, which now includes a free carry-on bag. We also expanded the co-brand portfolio with the announcement of a premium co-branded credit card. Furthermore, we announced plans to improve the Even More Space booking process and onboard soft product experience.
Sustainability
We signed a new commercial agreement to purchase, during the initial 12-month period, approximately 3.3 million gallons of blended sustainable aviation fuel (with an option to purchase up to an additional 13.3 million gallons).
Liquidity
At September 30, 2024, we had $4.1 billion in liquidity, which included unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term marketable securities. In addition, we had a $600 million Citibank line of credit.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we completed the following financing transactions:
raised approximately $2.8 billion in proceeds through the issuance of 9.875% senior secured notes due 2031 ("TrueBlue® Notes") and borrowings under a new senior secured term loan facility due 2029 (the "TrueBlue® Term Loan Facility", collectively the "TrueBlue® Financings");
issued $460 million of 2.50% convertible senior notes;
issued $350 million in floating rate equipment notes;
entered into $607 million of sale-leaseback transactions; and
repaid $631 million on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations, including the early retirement of $425 million related to our existing 0.50% convertible senior notes.
Refer to Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information on these financing transactions.
Pratt & Whitney
In July 2023, Pratt & Whitney, a division of RTX Corporation, announced the requirement, mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), for removal of certain engines for inspection due to a rare condition in powdered metal used to manufacture certain engine parts on the PW1100G and PW1500G engine types. These engines power our Airbus A220 and Airbus A321neo fleets. The rare condition powdered metal affects engines manufactured between October 2015 and September 2021. Engines are now required to be inspected after they have reached a reduced number of cycles dependent on the fleet type. As a result of these required inspections and other engine reliability deficiencies, as of September 30, 2024, we had 11 aircraft

grounded due to lack of engine availability. The Company currently expects each removed engine to take up to 360 days to complete a shop visit and return to a serviceable condition. For the full year ended December 31, 2024, the Company expects an average of 11 aircraft grounded. We currently expect aircraft out of service in 2025 to average in the mid-to-high teens.
Given that we expect to have a certain number of aircraft groundings into 2024 and beyond, we will continue to assess the resulting impact on our future capacity plans. We are currently working with Pratt & Whitney on compensation arrangements.
While we are working with Pratt & Whitney to secure compensation for 2024, the full impact of the removal and any potential remediation steps remains uncertain. The effect of aircraft groundings due to lack of engine availability, including but not limited to a reduction in capacity, could adversely impact our operations and financial results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended September 30, 2024 vs. 2023
Overview
We reported net loss of $60 million, operating loss of $38 million and an operating margin of (1.6)% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This compares to net loss of $153 million, an operating loss of $156 million and an operating margin of (6.6)% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Our loss per share was $0.17 for the third quarter of 2024 compared to a loss per share of $0.46 for the same period in 2023. Net loss decreased $93 million year-over-year primarily due to lower fuel costs.
Our reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 included the effects of special items. Adjusting for these one-time items, our adjusted net loss (1) was $54 million, adjusted operating loss (1) was $11 million, adjusted operating margin (1) was (0.4)%, and adjusted loss per share (1) was $0.16 for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Our reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 included the effects of special items. Adjusting for these one-time items, our adjusted net loss (1) was $129 million, adjusted operating loss (1) was $123 million, adjusted operating margin (1) was (5.2)%, and adjusted loss per share (1) was $0.39 for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
On-time performance, as defined by the DOT, is arrival within 14 minutes of scheduled arrival time. In the third quarter of 2024, our systemwide on-time performance was 70.7% compared to 58.5% for the same period in 2023. Our completion factor increased to 98.1% in the third quarter of 2024 from 96.3% in the same period in 2023.

Passenger revenue is our primary source of revenue, which includes seat revenue and baggage fees, as well as revenue from our ancillary product offerings such as Even More® Space. Passenger revenue was flat for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This was mainly driven by a 3.6% reduction in capacity, offset by a 1.9% increase yield per passenger mile.
Other revenue is primarily comprised of the marketing component of the sales of our TrueBlue® points. It also includes revenue from the sale of vacation packages, airport concessions and advertising revenue. The year-over-year increase in other revenue of $15 million, or 9.8%, was principally driven by an increase in TrueBlue® marketing revenue due to higher customer spend as well as an increase in vacation bookings.

Aircraft Fuel
Aircraft fuel decreased by $117 million, or 16.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The average fuel price decreased by 12.2% to $2.67 per gallon and fuel consumption decreased by 5.1%, or 11 million gallons.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased by $10 million, or 6.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by the induction of new aircraft.
Aircraft Rent
Aircraft rent decreased $12 million, or 37.0%, in the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, as a result of fewer leases for the Airbus A320 aircraft and Embraer E190 aircraft. The Company purchased certain A320 aircraft off lease and certain Embraer E190 aircraft leases reached their lease expiration and were returned to the lessor as part of the Company's fleet transition plan.
Special Items
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, special items included the following:

Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $47 million, or 89.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily due to incremental aircraft sale-leaseback transactions, new equipment notes, and the financing of our TrueBlue® program. These increases were partially offset by commitment fees incurred in 2023 related to the $3.5 billion Senior Secured Bridge Facility, but canceled in March 2024 in connection with the termination of the merger with Spirit.
Interest Income
Interest income increased by $11 million, or 55.0%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by an increase in short term investments due to the proceeds received from the TrueBlue® Financings.
Gain on Debt Extinguishments
Gain on debt extinguishments increased by $22 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This gain was due to the early retirement on a portion of our 0.50% convertible senior notes, due 2026.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 vs. 2023
Overview
We reported a net loss of $751 million, an operating loss of $700 million and an operating margin of (10.0)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Passenger revenue is our primary source of revenue, which includes seat revenue and baggage fees, as well as revenue from our ancillary product offerings such as Even More® Space. The decrease in passenger revenue of $324 million, or 4.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 is due to a 3.0% reduction in capacity and a 1.8% decrease in yield per passenger mile.
Other revenue is primarily comprised of the marketing component of the sales of our TrueBlue® points. It also includes revenue from the sale of vacation packages, airport concessions and advertising revenue. The year-over-year increase in other revenue of $36 million, or 8.2%, was principally driven by an increase in TrueBlue® marketing revenue due to higher customer spend as well as an increase in our vacation bookings.

Aircraft Fuel
Aircraft fuel decreased by $273 million, or 12.9%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. The average fuel price for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased by 9.0% to $2.83 per gallon and fuel consumption decreased by 4.4%, or 30 million gallons.
Salaries, Wages and Benefits
Salaries, wages and benefits increased by $130 million, or 5.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, driven by wage rate increases. The wage rate increases were primarily due to the new pilot union contract effective March 1, 2023, which included an initial pay rate increase of 14% and additional pay rate increases of 3% and 9% in August 2023 and August 2024, respectively.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization increased by $25 million, or 5.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023. This increase was primarily driven by the induction of new aircraft.
Aircraft Rent
Aircraft rent decreased $26 million, or 26.2%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 as a result of fewer leases for the Airbus A320 aircraft and the Embraer E190 aircraft. The Company purchased certain Airbus A320 aircraft off lease and certain Embraer E190 aircraft leases reached their lease expiration and were returned to the lessor as part of the Company's fleet transition plan.
Maintenance, Materials and Repairs
Maintenance, materials and repairs decreased $70 million, or 13.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to a lower volume of Airbus A320 engine repairs and the termination of the Embraer E190 flight-hour engine services agreement.

We expect our operating results to significantly fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter in the future due to factors such as economic conditions, weather events, cost of aircraft fuel, and various other factors, many of which are outside of our control. As an example, air traffic controller shortages in the Northeast and Florida continue to cause disruptions in the industry, resulting in the FAA waiving the minimum usage requirement and permitting us to voluntarily turn in up to 10% of our slots in the New York area to help protect our operations. Even with a reduced number of flights, we experienced and continue to expect challenges in the operating environment. Consequently, we believe quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful; you should not rely on our results for any one quarter as an indication of our future performance. Except for uncertainty related to the cost of aircraft fuel, we expect our expenses to continue to increase as we acquire additional aircraft and as our fleet ages.
Operational challenges have impacted our business in 2024 and may impact our business in the future. Additionally, reliability challenges with some of our aircraft engines using new technology have led to grounded aircraft events. These challenges have resulted - and are expected to continue to result - in flight delays and cancellations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The airline business is capital intensive. Our ability to successfully execute our growth plans is largely dependent on the continued availability of capital on attractive terms. In addition, our ability to successfully operate our business depends on maintaining sufficient liquidity. We believe we have adequate resources from a combination of cash and cash equivalents, investment securities on hand, and available lines of credit. Additionally, our unencumbered assets could be an additional source of liquidity, if necessary.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In July 2024, we entered into an amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Facility”), dated July 29, 2024, among JetBlue, Citibank N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the "Second Amendment"), which modifies the Facility to, among other things, (i) extend the final maturity of the Facility to October 21, 2029; (ii) adjust the margin and the minimum liquidity requirements of the Company; (iii) replace the sustainability adjustment mechanism; (iv) allow for certain additions of eligible collateral; and (v) remove provisions relating to the terminated merger agreement with Spirit.
In August 2024, we raised approximately $2.8 billion in proceeds through the issuance of the TrueBlue® Financings, which in each case are secured by collateral consisting of assets related to our TrueBlue® loyalty program. We also raised $460 million in proceeds through the issuance of 2.50% convertible senior notes, due 2029. The initial net proceeds from the 2.50% convertible senior notes were used to retire a portion of our existing 0.50% convertible senior notes, due 2026. Refer to Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for additional information on these financing transactions.
In the future, we may decide to seek additional financing or to further increase our capital resources by issuing shares of our capital stock, offering debt or other equity securities or refinancing outstanding debt or securities. Issuing additional shares of our capital stock, other equity securities or additional securities convertible into equity may dilute the economic and voting rights of our existing stockholders, reduce the market price of our common stock, or both. Our debt agreements contain various affirmative, negative and financial covenants and complying with certain of these covenants, or entering into agreements with additional covenants, may restrict our ability to pursue our strategy or otherwise constrain our operations. Failure to comply with these covenants could lead to an event of default under the agreements, which may result in, among other things, an acceleration of outstanding obligations under such agreements. Our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, which may adversely affect the availability, amount, timing, or nature of our future offerings. As a result, holders of our common stock bear the risk that our future offerings may reduce the market price of our common stock and dilute their percentage ownership.
At September 30, 2024, we had unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, and long-term marketable securities of $4.1 billion, which we believe will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Report, and we expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs with our projected cash from operations, available lines of credit and debt financing.
We believe a healthy liquidity position is a crucial element of our ability to weather any part of the economic cycle while continuing to execute on our plans for profitable growth and increased returns. Our goal is to continue to be diligent with our liquidity, maintain financial flexibility, and be prudent with capital spending.
Analysis of Cash Flows
Operating Activities
We rely primarily on operating cash flows to provide working capital for current and future operations. Cash flows from operating activities were $161 million and $486 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in operating cash flow is driven by the change in working capital and Spirit merger termination.
Investing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, flight equipment capital expenditures included $992 million related to the purchase of aircraft and spare engines as well as aircraft interior modifications. Flight capital expenditures also included $65 million in spare part purchases. Other property and equipment capital expenditures included ground equipment purchases and facilities improvements for $70 million. Investing activities for the current year period also included $942 million in net purchases of investment securities, $75 million in aircraft pre-delivery deposit payments and $22 million in Spirit shareholder payments.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, flight equipment capital expenditures included $618 million related to the purchase of aircraft and spare engines as well as aircraft interior modifications. Flight capital expenditures also included $42 million in spare part purchases. Other property and equipment capital expenditures included ground equipment purchases and facilities improvements for $90 million. Investing activities also included $98 million in Spirit shareholder payments, $53 million in net purchases of investment securities and $23 million in aircraft pre-delivery deposit payments.

Financing Activities
Financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily consisted of $2.8 billion in proceeds from the TrueBlue® Financings, $460 million from the issuance of the 2.50% convertible senior notes, $607 million in proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions, and $350 million in proceeds from the issuance of equipment notes to finance certain aircraft. Additionally, we issued $31 million of common stock relating to our crewmember stock purchase plan. These proceeds were partially offset by $631 million in payments on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations, which includes the retirement of a portion of our existing 0.50% convertible senior notes.
Financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily consisted of proceeds from sale-leaseback transactions of $523 million, issuance of $78 million in equipment notes to finance certain aircraft and issuance of common stock of $31 million related to our crewmember stock purchase plan. These proceeds were partially offset by $254 million in payments on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations.
Working Capital
We had working capital of $800 million and a working capital deficit of $1.5 billion at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Our working capital increased by $2.3 billion primarily due to an increase in cash and investment securities from raising $2.8 billion in proceeds from the TrueBlue® Financings and raising $460 million in proceeds from the issuance of the 2.50% convertible senior notes. These increases were offset in part by $631 million in payments on our outstanding debt and finance lease obligations, which included an early retirement of a portion of our 0.50% convertible senior notes.
We expect to meet our obligations as they become due through available cash, investment securities, and internally generated funds, supplemented, as necessary, by financing activities which may be available to us. However, we cannot predict what the effect on our business might be from future developments related to the extremely competitive environment in which we operate, or from events beyond our control, such as volatile fuel prices, economic conditions, weather-related disruptions, airport infrastructure challenges, the spread of infectious diseases, the impact of other airline bankruptcies, restructurings or consolidations, U.S. or international military actions, acts of terrorism, or other external geopolitical events and conditions. We believe there is sufficient liquidity available to us to meet our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Committed expenditures for our aircraft and spare engines include estimated amounts for contractual price escalations and pre-delivery deposits. We expect to meet our pre-delivery deposit requirements for our aircraft by paying cash or by using short-term borrowing facilities for deposits generally required six to 24 months prior to delivery. Any pre-delivery deposits paid by the issuance of notes are fully repaid at the time of delivery of the related aircraft.
Depending on market conditions, we anticipate using a mix of cash and debt financing for aircraft scheduled for delivery in 2024. Although we believe debt and/or lease financing should be available to us, we cannot give any assurance that we will be able to secure financing on attractive terms, if at all. To the extent we cannot secure financing on terms we deem attractive, we may be required to pay in cash, further modify our aircraft acquisition plans, or incur higher than anticipated financing costs.

REGULATION G RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
We report our financial results in accordance with GAAP; however, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures in this Report. 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 year results. Investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, our financial 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 presented in this Report and shows a reconciliation of each such non-GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Operating Expenses, excluding Fuel, Other Non-Airline Operating Expenses, and Special Items ("Operating Expenses ex-fuel") and Operating Expense ex-fuel per Available Seat Mile ("CASM ex-fuel")
Operating Expense per Available Seat Mile ("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 JetBlue Technology Ventures and JetBlue Travel Products, 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.
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.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, special items included union contract costs and voluntary opt-out costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, special items included Spirit-related costs, union contract costs, voluntary opt-out costs, and Embraer E190 fleet transition costs.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, special items included Spirit-related costs and union contract costs.
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.

Our GAAP results in the applicable periods were impacted by credits and charges that were deemed special items.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, special items included union contract costs and voluntary opt-out costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, special items included Spirit-related costs, union contract costs, voluntary opt-out costs, and Embraer E190 fleet transition costs.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 special items included Spirit-related costs and union contract costs.
Certain net gains and losses on our investments and the gain on debt extinguishments were also excluded from our September 30, 2024 and 2023 non-GAAP results.
We believe the impact of these items distort our overall trends and that our metrics are more comparable with the presentation of our results excluding the impact of these items. The table below provides a reconciliation of our GAAP reported amounts to the non-GAAP amounts excluding the impact of these items for the periods presented.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Except as described below, there have been no material changes in market risks from the information provided in Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk included in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Aircraft Fuel
Our results of operations are affected by changes in the price and availability of aircraft fuel. Market risk is estimated as a hypothetical 10% increase in the September 30, 2024 cost per gallon of fuel. Based on projected fuel consumption for the next 12 months, including the impact of our hedging position, such an increase would result in an increase to aircraft fuel expense of approximately $211 million. As of September 30, 2024, we have hedged approximately 20% for the fourth quarter of 2024.
Interest
Our earnings are affected by changes in interest rates due to the impact those changes have on interest expense from variable-rate debt instruments and on interest income generated from our cash and investment balances. The interest rate is fixed for $6.8 billion of our debt and finance lease obligations, with the remaining $1.4 billion having floating interest rates. As of September 30, 2024, if interest rates were on average 100 basis points higher year-over-year, our annual interest expense would increase by approximately $15 million. This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical change in interest rates on our variable rate debt.
If interest rates were to average 100 basis points lower in 2024 than they were during 2023, our interest income from cash and investment balances would decrease by approximately $11 million. This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical change in interest rates on the balances of our money market funds and short-term, interest-bearing investments for the trailing twelve-month period.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2024.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
