$400 mil increase in revenue for 2014 is the estimate:

JETBLUE AIRWAYS CORP (JBLU:NASDAQ GS): Earnings Estimates - Businessweek

We have been averaging an increase of 28mil per aircraft for the past several years. 12 aircraft will become operational in 2014, which comes to +$336mil additional revenue. So I guess we can assume the extra ~$64mil comes from operating larger aircraft, 190-seat version and first class versions. 4 of 12 aircraft will have first class at $1000/seat as opposed to ~$155/seat, so a WAG would say just over $37mil comes directly from first class revenue for those 4 a/c. Is that the number you came up with Snarge? Since to come on here talking down to us all?
