Robin was asked this question specifically at a pocket session a few months ago in Boston. His answer was no, that having 3 airplane types at once is going to be a major drain on the company from a cost perspective. The quicker we get to the 220, the better.

Of course they could change their minds. 60 320s will be updated by the end of the year, another year to finish the rest(maybe). So if they were going to refresh some 190s the logical time would be in 2021. Don’t see that happening while taking a new airplane that’s supposed to be a replacement. JetBlue is young enough that replacing airplanes is uncharted territory for them. It remains to be seen what logic they lean toward.
