2/11 JetBlue turns three!
1/31 JetBlue reports $54.9 million net income for 2002
VX has only had one profitable quarter since inception and has not made money to date over the course of a year, with last estimates of 3/4 Billion dollars in losses.

The airline reported its first quarterly profit, of $7.5 million, in the third quarter of 2010.
